The JPS head office in Kingston One day after the Portmore Municipal Corporation voiced its opposition to the pending closure of the Jamaica Public Service’s (JPS) Portmore office, dozens of protestors led by Mayor Leon Thomas descended on the location inside the Portmore Mall to show their disapproval at the decision. The protestors are hoping to force the light and power company to reverse its decision which will affect six other customer service locations across the island as of Monday, March 8. Despite seeking to assure its customers that it will be expanding its digital service offerings ahead of the closures, residents of the sunshine city are insisting that they will be severely impacted by the closure, in particular seniors who are not tech savvy and who will now have to travel to the JPS Spanish Town office or the Ruthven Road location in St Andrew to have their matters addressed.
