Thanks Choo for noticing that I was focusing on crediting Lans info on the work stoppage and resulting cut backs and not the political preferences of some posters.

Ahhh, I see now, sorry about that Gibby.

Lan, thank you for the info, and for your informative post.. it gives all of us both in and outside of Belize info that is sorely needed...especially those of us planning trips to the caye's in the near future, of which i am one, for that i appreciate it. Be cool and keep us all informed and thanks johnindenver

I just received the Chamber minutes from Tom Vidrine and it said something about the departure tax being increased to $100 BZ?

No problem Chris. If anyone has seen their share of the rise and fall and rise and then fall again of the BZ Government, it would be you my friend. It takes a lot of patience, hard work and adaptation to disapointment to succeed in BZ as a non Natural Belizean. I was fortunate to spend 4 years in BZ and the experience was worth more than my college education and then some.
