I am so impressed with our ambassadors to Rwanda. These two ladies make me proud.

I’m a Vincentian living in Rwanda, and I thoroughly enjoyed this interview :) 🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨 🇷🇼🇷🇼🇷🇼

I'm rwandese living in USA ❤ my jamaican brothers and sisters.

Rolande is a very smart women, the way she elucidated the nexus between the lower income status and the outstanding development of Rwanda was excellent.

I'm so in love with Rwanda such a beautiful country 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

Hello, I am Rwandan living in Florida, and I feel so overjoyed to see our sisters and a brother commenting on Rwandan way of living and culture. So, I would like to add something about us Rwandans. Yes, we’re so guarded, but if you can go past that you will find a friend for life. Most people in Rwanda were refugees for 35yrs before they came back to their home land. So, beside our culture that’s so reserved, the suffering of being refugees for many years added to us being guarded. We usually, take our time to know someone, and not because we’re not friendly. In fact, we love people very much, and we can be very chatty when we get to know someone. Attractions: we have lake Kivu which we share with Congo. You can see it on map if you want to see how it looks like. We have parks. Akagera park where you can go to see the animals. We have the Gorilla park. Thought it is expensive, it is worth it. Thanks for talking about my country. 🙏❤️

Jamaica Stands with the unification of one Africa. Africa unite

Rwanda is my dream relocation destination. I'm currently in the U.S. but I'm Jamaican born.

Nice to hear from you, I'm Rwandan in Jamaica. Much respect to you sisters and brothers.

I have been admiring Rwanda for years, since I worked with some of them in the 90's, on my bucket list for Africa

So informative , really enjoyed this interview. I love how my Jamaicans are making positive contributions over the world.

It was so nice to learn that Makeda was the granddaughter of the late Mrs Enid Witter who recruited me at the UNDP in 1980. On another note, Rwanda is on my bucket list of places to visit. May peace continue to reign in that beautiful land.

Watch this and again another great interview with more of our great people who doing so well abroad and are very successful in their careers and lives.

Didn't Thomas Sankara said, if you see a Capitalist praising u, u should rather ask yourself where u went wrong 😉 These 2 beautiful ladies are a reflection of Exparties in Rda not a mere Rwandan on ground 😇 However, Mr Kagame is a principaled leader, who knows where his interests are.'' What I think is the way, others thinking is their problem"! To that, I respect him!

He is running it better than the previous government and if you know anything about Rwanda, you would know that it took President Kagame nearly twenty five years to take Rwanda where it is now, unlike Jamaica, where the non productive PNP control Jamaica for nineteen years straight, then when Golding win, they did everything to undermined him until he had to step down which led to the PNP controlling government again for five years. That was what Andrew inherited and was doing well until covid-19 hit, and as far the violent in Jamaica, it is not only government responsibility, but also Jamaican people some of whom lived abroad where the guns are coming from, which are send to Jamaica by Jamaicans living abroad. .

Not only Jamaica. ALL of AFRICA!

I just love all the interviews from around the world, but Africa is on my bucket list

Engaging interview and very detailed and fun. Enjoyed it. I think the Jamaican love of their African heritage and in extension, their African brothers and sisters on the motherland is always reflected back to them. How can Zimbabwe not love Jamaica and the late Bob Marley. He funded his trip to sing at our independence and that love stays etched in our hearts. One love!

Love this presentation.....so glad Rwanda has been make rapid progress since the genocide. Very insightful and intelligent ladies....all the best in your endeavours!!

You can find yellow and white yam in Rwanda, it’s called ibikoro . Not popular in young people but they are available in market.

I thoroughly enjoyed this video and have visited Rwanda. Put it on your bucket list! Its a must! Hi Makeda!!!!

My kind of Jamaicans this, I'm so proud of you guys who represent our beautiful Jamaica so well. Just hearing how reserved and calm Rwandans(?) are makes me want to associate. Our culture is great and of course we can find the same reserved calm folks but to think most ppl are that way sounds good to me.

I would love to visit Rwanda one day. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Wow!! Just a breath of fresh air, listening to these ladies.

Looking forward to this.

Oh my gosh. I love this so much. Visiting Rwanda soon. :)🙃

Makeda is real Rwandan. She even understands that eating in public was originally not Rwandan.

Great content, I finally heard what I have been wanting to hear in most of your videos and that is " Do you speak the local language".

I will be in Rwanda in a couple of weeks. Presently in Ghana.

great one!

Brilliant programme conversation from Jamaicans to Rwanda impressions. Food wise common sorry Makeda but local small food provider kind like one get to grab exactly some of the similar Jamaican food that I grab all over towns here in UK

Very interesting interview. In Nigeria we have a lot of yellow yam.

Makeda said it;;; In Rwanda Generally People doesn't value Food alot, In Rwanda You have to share Drinks either (Milk, alcohol)

Great interview, I agree Jamaican is its own language and we should develop it in schools.

Welcome guys in my country! I'm also in south America

Great interview! I loved hearing about all that greenery... Jamaica used to boast a lot more greenery. Noticing a very strong love affair among some citizens and weed killers. All that burnt and dead grass certainly makes neighborhoods look rather depressed...

This is one example of a democratic state that is structured quite differently to the typical Western style democracy.

Very nice, I found her and subscribed.

I agree with makeda 100%. Since moving abroad to Germany ive also become such a cook because of how much i miss the jamaican food.😭 I think Rolande is still in the experimenting phase. I want to hear her answer this question after 5 years.

Love Rwanda. First class everything. Only disadvanrage, it's landlocked beaches

Yes. I agree. Whenever we say, you are "nuff" in Jamaica it has a negative connotation. On the other hand, whenever we say "you broad" it has a positive ring to it. As an example, when you listen to Barrington Levy's "Here I come," it highlights how we as Jamaicans fell when we say, "yuh broad." 🇯🇲🇨🇦💞

I would love to ask if they felt any kind of spiritual connection to the continent. Rwanda is very eastern as opposed to where most of our ancestors were stolen from but I'm curious. I immediately felt connected once I landed in Senegal/ The Gambia when I went.

There seems to be some similarities with Rwanda and Japan as it regards the temperament of the people and I think it has to do with the crisis they experienced. As it regards Jamaican music Zimbabwe is another country weh nuh ramp when it comes on reggae/dancehall. Me also get dark when people refer to the Jamaican Creole as 'broken English.'

Good job! Love this video! My next time in East Africa I will have to check it out. President Paul Kagame is doing a great job

Rolande went to St Andrew High School for Girls, she was my senior 2 years above me. She and my sister Miss Joan Racquel Morrison was in the same year group at St Andrew High School for Girls in St Andrew, Jamaica West Indies. They also went to West Avenue School for 5th formers.

Two beautiful ladies, I like the name Makeda lovely name.

Retired teacher trainer from uk but Jamaican. Anyone can find a place where I can work as a teacher trainer. Not much just somewhere to live and living expenses. Comfortable of course.

I have to visit Rwanda. 🇬🇾

Rwanda has a lot of cheese, although on varieties it is really not that much. To those coming to Rwanda if you make Genocide memorial a priority. It will guid you to better understand how you will be living with Rwandans, at the Genocide memorial, they tell you the history, and the vision of the country, from there you understand much. For tourism, Rwanda is that sort of natural reserve nation, anywhere you go, you'll find something interesting whether the lakes, rivers, forests, animals, valleys mountains, hills, towns, and villages. But make sure to try two of a lifetimes: Gorilla trekking and Nyungwe forest canopy.

Can I grow lots of the Jamaican foods like ackee, breadfruit, mango, juneplum, avacado/pear, etc

wow Makeda 😍😍😍😍😍🥰

Meet some in South Africa and need that person to board a flight can hi arrange all of or flying document out here
