Over the past nine to ten years the country is suffering from a situation called “brain drain”, this is occurred when Jamaican citizens with a white-collar job that went to the States to get an education, which they got but did not return to the country of birth to work.

Yes they would have to but this is not a short-term plan it is a long-term plan, the end result would be seen in ten or twenty years down the road.
