Jamaica's borders

Jamaica is an island in the middle of the carribean, and does not border any countries. it is, however, located near Cuba, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic. Recently, Jamaica has teamed up with cuba against drug trafficking. Jamaica has also helped out by sending relief supplies to Haiti after the earthquake.

Last year, the Jamaican government started requiring a license on all cement imported from the Dominican Republic, after the Dominican Republic held a shipment of Jamaican cement valued at around 250,000 U.S. dollars. The Dominican Republic claimed that the cement lacked the lab tests the construction codes require, and therefore held the cement.
