SUMMARY:Bunting Wins Debate\, Constituents Pleased
DESCRIPTION:\nTHE POLITICAL debate between Central Manchester candidates Peter Bunting of the People's National Party (PNP) and Danville Walker of the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP)\, staged by Northern Caribbean University's media group on Wednesday\, got high marks in terms of its quality from residence of the constituency.\n\nPolitical analyst Kevin O'Brien Chang said\, "It was a very high-level debate. It made us proud in Central Manchester to have such intelligent and articulate candidates. I am proud of the level."\n\nChang added\, "I don't think there are many constituencies that you would have this level of intellectual and articulate solutions. They addressed the issues affecting the constituency as best as they could."\n\nCivilised debate\n\nAnthony Freckleton\, editor-in-chief of Mandeville Weekly\, was also pleased with the debate. "Both candidates conducted the debate in a civilised manner. They stuck to the issues and that was heartening\," he said.\n\n"It was a straight intellectual discussion and it pointed out to me that both candidates were aware of the immediate and long-term needs of the parish and the constituency. My one regret is that\, in a format like that\, they (candidates) weren't given enough time to elaborate\, there was a rush from the get-go."\n\nBunting in his opening remarks said he recognised that the principal need of the constituency is jobs\, especially for young people. He said assets such as human resources\, education and health infrastructure are in place. "Today\, I am pleased to announce that my vision for Central Manchester Centre of Excellence for the knowledge-based industries has been adopted as a national priority for the People's National Party. This was outlined in the manifesto launched this morning (Wednesday)."\n\nRead full story from the Gleaner here http://jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20111216/lead/lead91.html\n\n\n
