VIslanders very hospitable despite negativity- Karl M. Scatliffe
The Bus and Taxi Operator told Virgin Islands News Online that his remarks hinge on feedback that he receives from visitors and expatriates alike.
According to him, the goodness in the people shines through and people feel welcomed.
“Just recently, I gave a man a ride, he said he has travelled throughout the world and this is the friendliest island, where people don’t have to know you to give you a ride to where you are going. This is something I hear all the time,” he said.
“That is a good thing, you know, despite all the negative things people say, and the negative vibes,” Mr Scatliffe, who did not elaborate on the negativity he was referring to.
The Virgin Islands continues to be recognised as one of the top choice for tourists the world over, both for the physical beauty of the islands and the warm hospitality of the people.

I'm sorry to say that politics from our unqualified ministers has reached the street level and things are going to the dogs very quickly.
Set of thieves!!
In most countries this is rare.
Lets be sure to continue raising our children in such a way so that when they are old they will do so, and also teach there kids to do the same.
Also when you go abroad people recognize it and asks where are you from. It's as if you are bringing blessings from abroad.

I pick up a stranger, I might regret it.
the motor vehicle for any other livery service, and in providing the service, shall
transport people from one specified location to another in the form of a special

providing the Limousine service, shall use the Limousine to transport a person to
a wedding, prom, concert, special group function or other similar function but yet you see them waterfront picking up persons going to Peter Island.At every port of entry you have persons or individuals who claim to be representing the Tourist Board.I personally think that the people who are involved with the Tourist Board have a clue as to their Job function.The Biggest problems at these Ports we have expatriates drivers,i keep saying this these people do not have no right being here in our livery and transportation services.If the Port Dispatchers had Knowledge of the road traffic act some of the problems that the bonifide Taxi drives face would be eliminated.45. (1) A person who prior to his or her arrival at a Port in the Territory has
pre-arranged for a taxi or livery service shall submit to the Port Dispatcher, his or
her voucher confirming the pre-arranged service.
(2) The name on the voucher submitted under sub-regulation (1) shall be
matched with the taxi or livery service provider’s checklist before the service
provider is permitted to transport the person.its starts with enforcement.
