ROSS UNIVERSITY LEAVING DOMINICA? DOMINICA STREET SHOUT 2018

Since the passage of Hurricane Maria in Dominica in 2017, there has been a lot things going on. Surely we know that more than 90% of the little glorious nature island was destroyed and thus putting things back into place was and still is a great task. Although some progress has been made, we may be yet on the verge of another Hurricane Maria! This one, my friends, has absolutely nothing to do with Mother Nature in itself but the mother of Economic sustainability in Dominica.
To add insult to injury, we are now hearing that the Ross University School of Medicine, one of the largest contributors to Dominica's GDP(Gross Domestic Product/Profit), roughly 40%, is about to leave the island! There are on going talks amongst the Bosses of the Ross University that may be really and truly be considering leaving. Not only that but there are other countries who, seeing the demise of the country, see it as an opportunity to reel in Ross University to come to their shores. It is truly a dog eat dog world out there my friends. Many speculations as to why this has and is happening by the Dominican community and thus BrBpTV went out into the streets to find out from the people of Portsmouth, Dominica, what they have to say in this regard and what they think will happen and can be done if the Ross University were to leave the beautiful Nature Isle of the Caribbean.
