Belize’s Underdevelopment strategy! I was watching the new Superman And focused on how General Czar commanded That they used the World Engine to transform the earth to Krypton With no regards for its human inhabitants Isnt this the same thing being done by London and the North Americans? It’s unfortunate that Belizeans do not have a superman Moreover it’s the responsibility of the citizenry To ensure that we collect our taxes from these North American corporations Who are getting away with concessions depriving the country of millions Facilitated when they butter ministers hands Contributing to their enrichment and corruption Ever wonder what Bowen and Bowen and Ashcroft have in common? ASR, NCL and BECOL are not about helping Belizeans They are all being allowed to rape this nation By being exempted from taxation Ten year ago when revenue looses by concession holders were quantified Bowen and Bowen was getting away with 12 million per year for forty years Ashcroft has been getting away with 19 million per year Due to a PIC statute his thirty years has not yet expired American Sugar Refinery has been given ten years Norwegian Corporation limited is being given twenty years Bowen and Bowen has had a monopoly In the brewery business they have enjoyed exclusivity Their concession has been renew more than once already Their concession is depriving this country of much needed revenue money Then as soon as Ashcroft is ready our government will renew his concession for another eternity No wonder the country is losing money This is creating the culture of dependency This is creating the beggar mentality Barrow got in on the promise That he would Raise BNE’s oil tariff He then came off as Nationalistic and patriotic By nationalizing BTL and Belizeans thought this was heroic But little did they know we have to pay FORTIS whether or not we use their electricity, this is pathetic He should have retained the infrastructure through a statutory body The nationalization was not done properly VIP advised him soundly, but allowed he has allowed FORTIS to rape the country through BECOL Nationalizing BTL needed to have included BECOL He ought to have privatized Telemedia as a service provider That would have been more practical Foreign corporations are getting away with raping the country Just like in the colonial days when northern corporations set up shop They were not being taxed Our country’s resources are being expatriated up north When they send their corporations to operate down south We bend our backward to accommodate US companies Who in turn pay our tax to their country? And Belizean is left in disparity This amounts to slavery; instead they tax the working class and small business in the territory This is how PUDP has forever been under developing our country Then when the country need revenues, they simply raise tax pan wi Belizean needs new leadership to run this country The PM must not be in charge of the finance Ministry That is the reason there is a financial secretary Big Business needs to be taxed just like everybody By: Abdulmajeed K Nunez
