Dear Government of Belize,
I would appreciate some answers to my questions: How can the Government of Belize approve/sanction/allow mass cruise ships in southern Belize when in 2010, in response to public outcry, and the government-funded Wilson Report opposing cruise ships in the south, Government assured us that there would NOT be cruise ships?
Why does the Government of Belize not only lie to its people, but then turn around and covertly sign a deal with Norwegian Cruise Lines with absolutely no public consultations or any environmental studies?
For an administration whose political buzz word was “transparency,” exactly where is that transparency?
Did you read this week’s editorial in the Amandala?
Thank you, Government of Belize, for your answers to these questions.
Respectfully submitted,
Patricia Celenza
