Ambassador Johnson served with distinction

Dear Editor,

The country has lost a former statesman who made an outstanding contribution to national life.

Ambassador Johnson will always be remembered as a quiet but effective parliamentarian and Government minister who served with distinction in various ministries, including education, technology, industry and commerce, agriculture and mining.

Ambassador Johnson was an accomplished diplomat who served with distinction in the United States, United Kingdom, the Republic of Finland, the Republic of Ireland, and the Kingdoms of Sweden, Norway, and Denmark.

In 2016, he was invested with the Order of Jamaica for his outstanding contribution to the country.

Ambassador Johnson, who served in both Houses of Parliament, was also a university lecturer and published author.

He led a full life which crossed disciplines to include media, academia, politics, and economics, and was a pioneer in some areas.

Lady Allen and the King’s House staff join me in expressing our deepest condolence to his widow, Pamela, children and other family members on their loss.

now I have to go through a snail’s-paced dialogue with another representative that will probably lead nowhere, again. Why can’t Scotiabank send my card to my Jamaican address, as it should have done a month ago?

I have been twiddling my thumbs while business and investment opportunities pass me by, all because of Scotiabank’s lack of care for customers.

Does Scotiabank care about the exponential loss I have been facing because I cannot use my own money?

Does Audrey Tugwell Henry know this is happening to customers of the bank?
