The Government of Saint Lucia’s decision to spend $12 million on the Jazz Festival while only making $5 million in return is a clear example of misplaced priorities and poor financial management.
By neglecting more pressing societal needs and failing to generate a satisfactory return on investment, the government has displayed a lack of fiscal responsibility. It is crucial that the government reevaluates its spending practices and redirects funds toward initiatives that will have a lasting positive impact on the country and its citizens.
Only through responsible financial management can Saint Lucia progress towards a sustainable and prosperous future.
