No Small Place by Jamaica Kincaid

This  story really touched me because it reminded me of my homeland Jamaica. Kincaid goes on about tourists not knowing the full story of her homeland Antigua. She explains that her country's government really only cares about the part of her country that attracts tourist. They invest all their money into the parts that make money and that's not always a bad thing, but her point was what about the parts of Antigua that needs the funds as well. What happened to the parts of Antigua that is just made up of her people and who needs to add more schools and concreted roads. This reminds me of Jamaica because similar events are occurring. I hate that the Caribbean government itself has been so corrupted whereas people now have to figure out that their beautiful country is deteriorating before their own eyes. Why wont the government put the same funds and investments into their own people?
