Information Minister Karl Samuda says despite the revocation of the United States visa of a government minister, investors will not lose confidence in the government.

Recently, minister without portfolio in the economic growth and job creation ministry, Daryl Vaz, reported that his u-s visa had been revoked.

He said he advised the prime minister of the issue and has initiated through the formal procedures and protocols, the process of seeking clarification to determine his eligibility to be issued a US visa.

When questioned about the matter at a post cabinet press briefing at Jamaica House, this morning, Mr. Samuda noted that the issue is personal for Mr. Vaz, but said he does not believe confidence in the government will be impacted.

He said investors are pleased with the government, as they are happy with the level of work done under the administration.

He reiterated that now is still the best time for persons to invest in Jamaica.
