How This AFRICAN LADY Is Transforming Barbados With 10 Insane MegaProjects... 

As a Black man this great Prime Minister and Ms Pandor (S.A Foreign Minister) are two of my most admired individuals. They are forthright in their convictions and take a back seat to no one, regardless of their station in society. Much Respect to these African Queens.

Someone living outside of Barbados would see this video as being impressive, however, those living here like myself would see it as a little insulting...the author needed to do some more research as well as learn how to pronounce Barbados and Bajans properly. Also, do note that Mia Mottley is Barbadian, to continually say she is a sister of the African soil gives the impression that she is directly from there. Yes, we know our ancestors are from there, that goes without saying. She is Barbadian, period. Three quarters of the footage used in this video is not in Barbados. Don't know anything about a rail system in Barbados... Who the heck is Mark Darcy???? I believe the CEO of the Barbados Port Inc. is David Jean-Marie. Please do your own research, do not depend on videos like this to expand your knowledge base as the intentions are usually not sincere, it may all be for popularity.... or likes.

I am from Zimbabwe, I got to know about Barbados and the Barbados PM through Wode Maya. I just love this woman for being a brave, confident and hard working person, Keep up the Good Work. I hope to visit Barbados some day.

I am a Jamaican but I love this lady to bits because she is forthright and bold! Fearless, Courageous and a beautiful Soul who loves her Island. Big Up!!!’n

I will try to present my outsider's opinion on PM Motley of Barbados. I think the narrator provided their own perspective of this lady. People have every right to disagree with what has been said. However some facts about Motley cannot be denied. Call me biased but inlift my cap for Motley. I do not live in Barbados and I am not defending PM Motley. But some facts needs to be highlighted about this lady. I think putting this lady down is unfair. She may not be perfect but bear in mind that this lady is changing thimgs in an environment of the negative stereotypes about black.leaders. We kive in a world where being black and a woman makes other people think and believe that a black person is incapable all round. In this regard she is running against a storm. As black people, the word sister is a sign of respect. This is because she is of African heritage and a person from Barbados,a predominantly black nation. This is a form of respect. Peter Tosh left us a song and reminder that no matter where you come from as long as you are a black person you are an African. It is natural that some will love this powerful lady while some detest her. Lest we forget, the colonisers negatively potrayed Africa to the islanders just like they did the same with Islanders to Africans. But if I have a brain, I judge for myself. Mia Motley may have flaws in her delivery of her service like all of us. At least she dared to put herself out there to face the wrath, criticisms, praise and motivation among other things of the public. She stood up to be counted. Despite what people may think or say, she will go down in history as having left an impact and a mark on her country's history books. Bear in mind, that these so-called rich countries are not perfect either. In fact what has been revealed about the inequalities and service delivery to the citizens of powerful nations is scary. While they castigate other govements for failing their citizens, I argue that this is a deflection. The deflection serves to create a false impression that their countries are ran smoothly. The truth is far from that narrrative. For example, I do not think there are tent cities in Barbados. But if one goigles which countries in the west suffer from poverty and inequality you will be proud to be a Barjan. Some of these countries fail to deliver clean water for their communities. Their people go to foodbanks. I did not see any such in Barbados unless I missed it. Mia Motley has elevated the status of black women in international affairs. She is fearless and unapologetic. She speaks truth and facts to the powerful. When she is on stage, she comnands her audience to listen attentively. Big men who lead the so-called powerful countries look physically and mentally uneasy. They sit there folding their arms in awe. They pay attention to her every word. Motley presents an alternative image of a confident political participant and a woman of colour. Her aim is not to make people like her. It is crystal clear that she means to talk to peoples' consciences. That is lady is a real game changer. I actually salute her for her professional approach. She has made international affairs interesting. Motley calls a spade a spade. Her speeches are well planned yet she never looks at them. She knows her stuff. As for mispronunciation, we all differ because we hear things differently. I have been to the Barbados as a visitor. As an African I felt perfectly at home. The island is clean. I visited someone who lives there notva tourist. I say this because some can say I went to tourist areas. We went almost everywhere. As they say in Africa, a healer is not appreciated in their community. This lady fights for the black person's image and rights. I could go on and on. I praise this mighty Shero. Not many can fit in her boots. She has inspired and motivated a lot of women and I think man too. To her I say, well done daughter of the rich, fertile, resource rich Mother Land. Stand up tall, do your best. Fear no one and apologise to no one. Truth hurts but you dare to speak it. Go on write your story for future generations to read. Salute. 🙌🙌🙌

Love Barbados, my grandmother was from there ❤❤

Prime minister Mia Amor is beautiful at mind is a leader for her people and the entire black nations of the world. She is concerned about where we black and the former colonized nations , we come from, our status now and she pushing us to a better and a respectable position amongst all the so called advanced nations of the world.She is no sellout or a puppet of the west. She speaks truth to western powers without fear or favour. She is a darling to Pan Africanists

What a great country and people

This is a fake video! None of these so-called 'developments' are going on in Barbados! Not the country I'm living in so some crony must have put this together! FAKE FAKE FAKE!

The source of info for report is susoect as folks living on d island not aware of any. Of this..😮

My father’s birthplace, born and raised . Love my Bajan blood. She is a great leader

What about the health care system? Like a state of the art hospital with trained professional nurses and workers. This should be a top priority.

When leaders love their country and its people great things can happen too many criminals go into politics around the world just to feather their nests while their people suffer big up Madam PM show the rest how its done

Which barbados these things going on ?

Ah! Barbados, Barbados,my neighbor to my right,may God continue to bliss you. You have shown the smaller Caribbean islands the way forward. We'll be for every grateful. You have never boasted or bragged like your large and wealthier caricom, neighbors. Yet you're more respected and loved than all. Tourism, flying, Fish,Clean, peaceful and tranquil. Thanks for the greatest vacation my family ever had. "Lord have mercy"your horse racing was off the hook. OMG 🐎🐎🐎.🍺

She is a true leader

Wonderful. Look forward to visiting Barbados ❤

Mottley is a good PM however,This video does not follow the community guidelines😂. It is misleading unless dese people know more than we the locals know.

Wow, interesting. She's not African either. She's Barbadian.

seriously??? that airport is not new! come on do your reseach!

Yes. Mia Mottley is Barbadian. Yes Barbadian by Nationality. She is African by Race. Get that into your head.

You know what inspired me the most is how well The New Tourist did this video. Good job, you guys. As an American Barbadian, I’m looking forward to being part of these projects.

Something needs to be done in the emergency department at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Instead of spending all that money at the airport, spend some money on hiring nurses and people there to give people better service.

Mia is a leader with all talk where these th I ngs happen not in the barbados that I know you can fool some people but you can not fool every body 😢

She was not the first prime minister.

I wonder where this train going to run, I could be wrong but I don't see this train running inland nor the coast line, they can't even bring back the old train that used to run along the coast becused of erosion. Barbados is too small for that.😮

When I lived in Barbados, I got in an argument with a tourist about a hotel ta be built,,,Hear me I'm Barbarian and no such thing is going to happen,,, within 2 months They start the hotel... When you have a billion dollar idea try telling it to a fool and see how far it will go,,,

Not to worry, all things will come to Light one great day, you will see, Have no fear God knows Best.

why u goh pronounce my countrt name so big man 😂😂😂😂 baaaah bay dos

Propagenda at the highest is she going to do all this in three years.

The vision may not be accomplished in her political or natural lifetime. But without a vision, there are no milestones except survival. ...if you dont have a dream, how can you have a dream come true?

The power of a woman with a vision. Bless you.

Thank God for positive and influential black world leaders that are doing well for their nations. Greetings and love from the Bahamas ❤

My advice to everyone is this : if you want to grow big this year especially in your finances. Be willing to take risks. Saving is great but taking risks puts you on a pedestal where you wouldnt have to worry about savings as you do now. Thanks to larysa Caba, my portolio is doing really great and im proud of the decisions i made last year.

Light rail in Barbados? Now that would hasten my return! The roads are too narrow and the noise from the cars detract from the tranquility of the beautiful surroundings.

WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR INFORMATION FROM? BARBADOS IS MUCH TOO SMALL FOR TRAINS. BARBADOS IS 169 SQUARE MILES

😂😂😂 ooh lawd!

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🌹🌹🌹🌍🌍🌍

My philosophy for the Caribbean kids Know your boundary waters Physical and mentally Have a blessed day And the Cayman Islands is a part of the Caribbean These islands is under the British territory But location remains the same❤😂🎉

Where are the train tracks?

She forgot to include the hospital

Prime Minister Mia Mottley is a visionary leader of Barbados.She is not talking and doing nuthin, she is developing the island nation to boost its potential for its people.Much respect and love for this brilliant leader.

Grantley Adams international airport Where this light rail network coming from

❤love the lady

Sound like a huge investment. Curious, who is the investor? Doubt, if Barbados had such a huge savings and was ready to spend 'em on all those projects mentioned in this video? So who is the investor? I spotted Chinese suitmen, by the way, in this video. What's the price for all those money invested anyway? Just to add after all, must give a huge credit to Mia M. Brave woman. Any more thoughts?

Job well done with the coverage. I’m not Bajan but I’m in awe of Prime Minister Motley’s leadership and vision for a country she obviously loves. She has been working tirelessly and unabashedly and not for self gain or self praise. Other leaders in the region can certainly learn from her example. She’s putting the money where her mouth is. And she’s so intelligent!

Interesting how we can spread and make these things sound interesting and good.While the citizens are heavy tax.

Correction she is not a female ... imagine barbados use to market theit island and show pictures of St Lucia and St. Vincent .. mia can only transform barbados to a full LGBT island

This goin on behind the scenes?¿??😮asking for a friend

I am not sure whose idea it was for this video, but you did not do your research. Barbados was at the forefront of the use of solar Energy for about 30- 40 years.

First it's barbados not baabados

Light Rail System? Where? Not in Barbados.

This is #MarketingSpin for Barbados is in #SeriousDEBT* - so tell us how all this is to be done??? #FAKE_NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I live in Barbados I see some things getting done and Mia is a strong woman who loves her country people are nit picking because they want it today things take time I can’t wait for the rail 😊

Where is the train going to run?

By the way I one of those who laugh at how dumb Cow must have been moving his operation ta wildeys.... You all have convince wanna selves that Barbados was setup mainly for the benefit of Barbadians and that so far away from reality...

We're getting trains? Yippe skippee!!! Dear The New Tourist - come to Barbados I will buy you a Fish Cutter from Cuzz.

Fantastic!! Just one minor issue - there is NOOOO money to pay for almost ALL of this. Baaaah-bay-dose is not Baaah-rain. There's no endless pile of cash.

You showing the transformation of the corporate world in Barbados, which in some parts is making life and living tough for the average Barbadian. Lands that belong to the people are being used for corporate and tourism affairs, When Transformation are done to help a people as a whole, it is good, when transforming a nation to suit corporate heads, and making playgrounds etc. for the rich and famous and forgetting about the average man life and living, , just leaves the people of the lands in disarray, some transformations are just a sabotage of the people and the place they call home.

Give Barbados it’s due credit. Mia Motley is Barbadian, not African. She has African ancestry, but she is a Barbican, West Indian woman.

Congratulations PM Mia Motley of Barbados 🇧🇧 a heroine.

Only 2-3 years ago this dynamic leader was addressing the UN about large countries refusing to do business with Barbados. Now she has taken the reins & is moving forward. Who has stepped up to work on & invest in these projects? Will the wealth generated be shared with the population or grabbed by the few investors? She has tremendous vision & courage. Be well, Barbados!

Where?????

A leader with A vision

Really

The Caribbean archipelago is being modernized, revitalized and digitized by a multi-faceted female task force, spearheaded by the indefatigable Prime Minister of Barbados - The Honourable Mia Amor Mottley. OCVC for posterity and prosperity in perpetuity it shall be.

Well done, congratulations your achievements it’s amazing scenery. Keep the good work.

❤❤❤ living ninja 🥷 front line 🚪 🚪 🚪 🚪 🚪 🚪 🚪 🚪 🚪 🚪 ❤❤❤

Serious ambitious venture. So who's the venture capitalist footing the funds for that? Hope it's not china cause then you become an own Chinese state control by them

a video of properganda! you poeple from outside needs to stop inviting yourself to the lies!

Might be time to move back home 🤔

Want to allow more young men and women to join the army and coast guard build back the air wing by building up the army this get crime down because they will focus getting in army we do more peacekeeping and country earn more money let young men Wil be in jail not only building Houses and hotels

Visionary…I pray she would be successful in all she has planned for Barbados ❤

When ah country leader has no vision that nation will perish...For what this world when through, it's highly unlikely that a nation such as Barbados to not be in debt,,,From where I sit, The most important thing for Barbados right now, Can it's leader attract investors ta invest in the Island,,,,and hands this leader has it....But they are folks out there who believe that Adam live 930 years.. Sad to say that so happens ta be long before mathematics was invented,,,I find it surprising that such folks didn't followed that Canadian family and move to Russia...

All of these projects will be completed before the next election. The road improvement program has already begun. Looks like another 30 love result coming.

She can invest all she wants. The question is will investment reduce high food prices and the cost of living for many Barbadians or will things remain the same......If she's a WEF puppet then expect the cost of living to increase significantly 🤔🤔🤔.

She is a dictator.

Who is this guy making all these claims??

Mia Motley is not an African she is a very smart Barbadian person so please do not say that she is African ..

go straght to the comments

Whoever is responsible for this video better take it down because he talking bare jobby

Who fooling you?

Motley must be paying this guy. What a bunch of BULL SHIT. Barbados is in disarray with the people struggling to survive everyday. But of course the people who doesn’t live in Barbados or knows nothing about Barbados would believe this BS. We are in desperate need of a new leader.

WOW BARBADOS 🇧🇧 GOT IT GOING ON 🎉😊 👍🏼 THKS TO PRIME MINISTER OF BARBADOS 🇧🇧 HER VISION FOR HER COUNTRY PEOPLE AN ALSO A ROLE MODEL FOR ALL CARRIBEAN LEADERS ,WAY TO GO 🎉❤BLESS UP 🙌 👏 🙏🏼

So misleading.. must mean a different Baarbados

Please do not call the Priminster of Barbados a African woman she is an will b a Barbadian for a long time...

Good luck to her she has good plan for her country hi do hope she successfully and get some help from richer country has history has thought us that most west indian country lost most of their wealth because other country pilfered their wealth for them self

What do you mean be daughter of Africa? Sure she has African ancestry, but she is a daughter of Barbados and the Caribbean, not Africa

If true, who is paying for it. Is it the Chinese. If so, how are they going to pay China back. Look at Sri Lanka what China did. The same will happen. Barbados import 80% of all food most young people want to leave to get jobs. Barbados is a tourist destination. Just like Jamaica. Please, people, don't be fool by this remember Barbados is a small inland with a population of just over 350 thousand people.

😂😂😂

None of things is happening in Barbados. Right now the countryi s in debt of 7 billion US dollars .There is is no major development going on in Barbados .

Rome was not built in a day. Give her time. She is brilliant.

Well done Prime Minister Motley❗ Praying that other Prime Ministers throughout the Caribbean follow your lead in becoming republics, in achieving 💯 sustainability using renewable energy, upgrading infrastructure, upgrading transportation with new modes of mass transit such as, lightrail systems and traditional railroad systems which connect rural areas to city centers. I love this woman's vision. Go PM Motley❗👍👍👏👏

This video want taking down now .lie lie and more lies

Why keep calling her African, she was born in BARBADOS.

African?

That a very smart woman care of environment save money and preserving energy without gas and electricity is a heck of waste even government take more from us

Whow fake

Where did you get your info. Some of it is inaccurate and out dated. The repeated, incorrect pronunciation of the name of the island and its people was extremely annoying and disrespectful. Mia was not born in Africa!! It’s BaRbados not BAAbados. It’s BAYjan not BAAjan. Did you just read the child rhyme Baa Baa Black sheep? So annoying that you chose to keep butchering the name of Rihanna’s home!!

Sugarcoating bs
