THE BELIZE TIMES

FAILED ECONOMY = FAILED STATE The Prime Minister’s lies, hubris and braggadocio now have him sitting uncomfortably between a rock and a hard place. There is a crisis in the sugar industry. The government’s mishandling of this crisis, or series of crises, does not bode well for the future of the industry. To add to this, there is expected to be a surplus of sugar on the world market this year. The Economist has reported that “sugar’s sweet run will come to and end with prices slumping by 8 percent.” To add to the pain and agony of the cane farmers, Mr. Barrow is trying to sell their industry from under their feet. He has been making bold overtures to Banco Atlantida. This Bank, as a result of Mr. Barrow’s encouragement, has expressed an interest in acquiring Belize Sugar Industries. At least that’s according to Mr. Barrow. It was because of hard and long negotiations between the People’s United Party government and Tate and Lyle that cane farmers now hold major shares in the industry. Now this government seems intent on changing that. Mr. Barrow will soon have to give a lot of explanations to cane farmers and to the Belizean people as this crisis spirals out of control - again. It won’t be too long. This is but one example that this government is clueless. They have no long-term plan. They deal with issues and crises only when it is politically expedient. This year there will be much alleluia in the citrus belt. Listen for it. The price of oranges is good and citrus farmers have been able to rebound from the ravages of Hurricane Richard, to have produced a bumper crop. But this is cyclical. The recent freeze in Florida also provided a lease to citrus farmers in Belize for recovery. But this industry continues to be plagued by a perennial tribal war to feed the narcissism of certain individuals and to the chagrin of investors. It is also becoming more and more evident that backroom politics is feeding the fly in the ointment. For now, but only for now, this industry may be the only positive contributor to the already dismal Gross Domestic Product, or the value of goods and services. Adding to this already gloomy scenario are the rising prices of gasoline and diesel at the pump and the calamity in the cruise tourism industry. They have both back-fired on Mr. Barrow. The latter is as a result of mis-management within both the Ministry of Tourism and the Belize Tourism Board. The former, because the Prime Minister, in one of his many election promises, said that he would reduce the price of fuel at the pump, “No matter what”. Now he is speaking in tongues on the issue. The reality is that our small economy cannot be sustained with the continuous rise in fuel prices. The government will have to bite the bullet. This situation could have been worse with higher electricity rates, because Mr. Barrow, when in Opposition, lacked the vision to support the PUP in encouraging investments in hydro-electricity and later began to pick a quarrel with the Belize Electricity Limited over electricity rates. Now he is almost begging the Mexicans for a special rate for the augmented supply of electricity they sell to BEL. He will not get it. That is not the way that business is done, Mr. Barrow. He will again have failed to fulfill another promise to reduce utility rates. Meanwhile, since this government took office, the cost of living has skyrocketed, despite a political campaign slogan promising the opposite. There is now almost one of every two Belizeans living in poverty. Mr. Barrow has now promised not to impose more taxes on the people. In reality, he cannot. At least, not directly. He is taxing us enough. But please do not take yet another of his promises too seriously. We look forward to the Prime Minister’s Budget Speech. We can predict that in its delivery, he will once again put on display an angry persona, the result of his numerous failures and his attempts at dictatorship. He will not be able to truthfully report any increase in GDP. He will not be able to dispel the rising rate of unemployment. He will repeat his do-nothing pro-poor mantra, and he will be reading his budget speech which was written through heavily tinted rose-coloured lenses. But there are a few simple ways to help to improve this dismal picture. Not that we dare to tell the PM how to. But still, we suggest that he begins by reducing the excesses of his government and the incompetence of his Cabinet. He could also discontinue the dismantling of the Public Service and re-staff it with skilled managers and professionals, and not clueless lackeys. And last, but not least, Mr. Prime Minister, stop enriching your family from the measly public purse as you have a Solicitor General and a paid legal staff. Those are but a few examples.

THE BELIZE TIMES

Strictly Personal Barrow is bogus

By glenntillett@yahoo.com They seem small in the larger scheme of things, but I do wonder if maybe a few years from now we will look back and see them as the first seeds, the first overt signs of the prevailing popular discontent with the Barrow administration? The past two weeks, for the first time, we had in conjunction a public demonstration, a UDP convention that failed by everyone’s estimation to live up to anyone’s expectations, and a strike or industrial action. And then there is a poll by the

The fact is that as a politician all the polls and numbers matter to him all the time. The only time they no longer matter is if he is so resigned that he can no longer care, in which case he is just another lame duck nearing the end of his quack.” nation’s leading newspaper that says that 7 out of 10 respondents are utterly disappointed with the Barrow administration. Week before last COLA organized a 24 hour “camp out” in front of the Prime Minister’s Belmopan office. The actual participants numbered less than 25, I’ve been told, and last week Barrow pooh-poohed their effort to call attention to his “Drill baby, drill” policy. In fact he called what was billed as his quarterly press conference on the third anniversary of his party’s ascension to power and then spent most of the time on the defensive – defending nepotism, defending oil exploration and exploitation polices,

defending lame economic policies, defending, defending, defending. He could barely muster the “ganas” to launch more than a cursory attack on the PUP, his customary and now Pavlovian defensive strategy. Last Sunday the UDP’s Port Loyola constituency endorsement convention for Anthony “Boots” Martinez fizzled despite a $25K media campaign hyping it, and $15K in cash and large appliance giveaways as inducements. The full might of the Barrow Cabinet and the UDP hierarchy were tasked to attend, and even the PUP’s 2008 Port Loyola candidate now turncoat, Oscar Rosado, was trotted out. But by the time the last bedraggled supporter had trudged away it was clear that not even the most rabid UDP spinmeister could put the number of attendees at more than 1,300. Last Monday the unionized employees of the Social Security Board staged a sick-out to call attention to the intransigence of the management led by Barrow’s ex-wife Lois Young. Antonio “Pancho” Gonzalez, President of the Christian Workers Union, told the media that sick out was as a result of the “negative attitude and behavior” of SSB’s management and that the union decided on this course of action because SSB’s management have failed to adhere to the terms of the collective bargaining agreement. At times, says Gonzales, SSB’s management has shown total disrespect for the Christian Workers Union. I venture to guess that the Unions, collectively, were the Barrow’s UDP staunchest ally in the years leading up to the 2008 General Elections. I’m about set to read Malcolm Gladwell’s 2000 groundbreaking bestseller “The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference” and I wonder if it will reinforce my surmise that the Barrow administration has passed the tipping point and is about to be spilled out of office. The mood among the electorate is restive and their restraint seems to stem in part from the simple fact that the PUP is still in the process of putting together what will be its candidates for government. The point here is that the dissatisfaction with the Barrow administration can’t be blamed on the PUP – that they’ve done all on their lonesome. But after questioning the accuracy of the poll, he began to concede that there may be some credulity in its conclusions. He has tried to put a brave face on the massive erosion of support by reasoning that every administration faces a certain attrition of the support that brought them to office. He tried to deny the reality by pointing to what he considers historic turn-

outs for the UDP contested conventions held heretofore. The turnouts may be a mirage, though, since their prevailing characteristic is the overt, public vote buying and the deploying of hundreds of thousands of dollars in both government and private resources. In these depressed times no one is going to gainsay poor people rushing in for a sudden windfall from the ruling politicians. Barrow told AMANDALA: “The only poll that really matters is the poll that takes place on Election Day.” He should have said that the only poll that matters to him is the one on Election Day. The fact is that as a politician all the polls and numbers matter to him

21

all the time. The only time they no longer matter is if he is so resigned that he can no longer care, in which case he is just another lame duck nearing the end of his quack. Barrow ended his AMANDALA interview on what he no doubt thought was a defiant note, but I venture to hazard is wishful thinking. “If the people of the country say different, that’s fine with me. I have no problem at all going back into private life. I would leave with absolutely no regrets. I would accept such a judgment of the people with completely no rancor” was his “best foot, brave face” conclusion. Yeah, sure, whatever. Respect to Dean Barrow, bogus to the very end.

The Back Yard Convention…

The People’s Convention By Carolyn Trench-Sandiford – Deputy Party Leader People’s United Party - Belize because of inability to pay for tuition and books, of being berated and humiliated by an area representative, whose heart seems not to understand and appreciate the severity of the state of his people. Young men have said to us, with blank eyes, that they are convinced that there is no future in Belize, with the hopelessness created by this UDP government. For us, this is not the

‘Starting all over again, it’s gonna be rough…but I know we can make it…’ These were the words that crossed my mind when I first sat with other members of our Collet Committee to plan our convention. At that meeting, we discussed the road ahead, the journey we were to travel together, the things we wanted to achieve, the sacrifices we would have to make, and the message of our convention. For us it was not so much about numbers, even though we surpassed our expectations by far, but rather about rekindling the spirit of our Party and people, and to begin a journey from the bottom up and upon a solid base, to provide a better life for our people. We all agreed that it would not be a grand ostentatious affair, not only because it would have been costly, and our resources are limited, but because we were all convinced that the majority of the people of Collet, like many in other communities, were confronted each and every day with hard choices about life, and were certainly not interested in a one day high. We knew that many of our people have no jobs, are living in deplorable conditions, in homes with no floors, with no walls, no roof, no beds, no water, no electricity and yards with no streets or drains, or space for children to play. Many go to bed at night, yet sleep is often not forthcoming, because they know not where the next meal would be coming from, what the next day would bring, and if it rains, the state their homes will be in. Many have conveyed to us their fear of a child, or spouse, or sibling becoming sick, because beyond what was provided by NHI, they knew not where to turn. Or of not knowing whether they would see their children alive again. Many have buried a loved one with quiet strength and dignity. Others tell of owing school fees or taking their children out of school,

Belize that the PUP was destined to create, and it is not the Belize that we want for our children and their children to live in. This is not what the people of Belize and Collet voted for in 2008. This is not what they deserve. So we designed our convention to bring hope for a better life from a backyard at 3180 Dakers Street, the heart of Collet, the property of Frederick and Emily Dakers, two stalwarts of the PUP, and whatever resources we have would be utilized to assist in relieving their hardships as best as we can. The yard is symbolic, as it is also a lot which a woman and a great political leader and humanitarian, Hon. Gwendolyn Lizarraga, better known as ‘Madam Liz’, and her committee assigned to Ms. Emily, who was a member of the United Women’s Group. This was one of many lots extending from Currassow to Elston Kerr Street, and from North Creek to Gibnut Street, which were issued to women, as Madam Liz insisted that they were to be given the right to own properties at a time when only men did. She saw women as the caregiver and provider in many homes, and wanted them to be empowered. We also faced another backyard, that of a secondary school, which was also the brain child of. Madam Liz. She insisted that the children of the poor should be given the same right as the children of the more fortunate to receive a secondary education to better their lives. Gwen Liz High School is a testament of her conviction, and today boasts of many graduates and championship sports teams. We were surrounded by many fruit trees including the soursop and bukut, and our banners were hung lopsided on the coconut trees. The rustic old zinc fence was our security and comfort, the sky our roof, and the earth our anchor. A sign appropriately placed on two sticks at the entrance of the yard over a rickety wooden bridge proudly said “Welcome to Collet

Constituency..the People’s Constituency..’ Another blazed .. ‘The Voice of the People of Collet shall not and will not be Denied.’ The mood was festive and energizing. For me it was a surreal experience, yet an inspiring moment in time, sitting and listening to the accolades bestowed upon me, a bit uncomfortable, perhaps because I am so focused as to what I want to achieve as against where I want to go, I never really thought of how people perceived me. I guess I simply see my involvement in politics as a calling, because of my concern about the future of my country, and because I have a clear vision as to what I believe needs to be done. Notwithstanding, I was gratified and humbled by the outpouring of love and support from all who attended ...the greetings to our people in Creole from our esteemed Chair Debbie, in Garifuna and Spanish by Mr. Mags and Don Marco, to the kind words from those who spoke

on my behalf..women who I have so much respect for.. Anne and Maureen,.. from my southside colleague and bonafide..mi rasta brethren Anthony…the councilor from the north, Kevin, on behalf of the youth of the Party…from Irma a Campaigner… and from other members of the National Executive, including the Party Chairman, who conducted my oath of allegiance, the Deputy Leader from the south, the former Prime Minister who compared our convention to a revival and sang a line from ‘sweet caroline’…and from my Party Leader who expressed his confidence in me to represent our Party in Collet. Our convention represents the start in a journey to break the cycle of perpetual subjection of our people, of creating a new political, economic and social order, for Phase II of the revolution, for only so will a NEW BELIZE be born, which will bring to all Belizeans a better life and a just share of the national wealth.

THE BELIZE TIMES

Reid By G. Mike Reid “Never let a politician grant you a favor. He will always want to control you forever.” - Bob Marley “Ask what you can do for your country and not what your country can do for you.” - JFK So far, the PUPs have had seven conventions and the UDP’s have had four. As was pointed out in a recent Amandala editorial, all four of the UDP conventions were contested while the PUP’s first four were endorsements. What was not pointed out in the article was that for the rest of the way, most of the UDP conventions will be endorsements while most of the PUP’s will be contested. Neither was it pointed out that in every UDP convention this far, the overruling factor was money; big money!

One factor in my decision was finding out that Carolyn had done an immense amount of work in the area and while many felt that I would do well, she was looked at favorably by most PUPs and even a large number of UDPs. I will continue to give her my support and assist her in whatever way possible.”

Port Loyola representative Boots Martinez had his convention this past Sunday and while there were no challengers, Boots took no chance at exposing his unpopularity. Among the allurements was a $5,000 giveaway, as

well as big screen TVs, stoves, refrigerators and microwaves. A few highpriced and high-profile performers have also been hired to boost up the program. All this in a constituency neglected, dejected and unprotected. A few months ago, I gave serious consideration to tossing my hat into the ring of electoral political. I was born and raised in the Collet constituency and that seemed then for me, the logical choice. I mentioned my intention to a few folks, sought some advice and was encouraged by the support and response. I thereafter began to canvass and embarked upon some preliminary campaigning. Suffice to say, after but a few days on the ground, I realized that a run for office would require much more than just an iron will and an eagerness to serve; turns out those would be the least of the criteria. Last week, Carolyn Trench-Sandiford was endorsed as party standardbearer for the said Collet Division and I was there to applaud and endorse her position. Let me say that at no point during my short campaign was there any attempt by anyone to intimidate me, discourage me or buy me out of the race. The decision to abandon was mine and all mine. One factor in my decision was finding out that Carolyn had done an immense amount of work in the area and while many felt that I would do well, she was looked at favorably by most PUPs and even a large number of UDPs. I will continue to give her my support and assist her in whatever way possible. She is certainly a cut above the current representative for that area. The largest deterrent to my aspiration proved something that I had long suspected but must have been just too naïve to concede; that money was the name of that game! I saw an ad on television this past week where an aspiring candidate for another division was going about repairing houses and piling up expenditures as if cash was no consideration. On my part, it would have been one hell of an impediment. Hardly had I announced my plans to contest the division than the lines began to form. I became “boss” to a number of the neighborhood dawdlers who as a consequence expected regular remunerations. I recognized immediately that it was a bigger task than I had bargained for and more importantly, it dawned on me why we are in the big mess that we are in as a country. For a moment, I contemplated taking out a loan or putting my little shanty up for mortgage. If I won, I could quickly pay back the loan and join the rank of the elites in our society. I quickly abandoned that thought

and decided to return to my low subsidy tasking as writer and commentator. My involvement in politics at that level would require a much larger degree of sacrifice and compromising than I was willing to render. Again, I can now better understand why and how things have gotten so far out of hand. The politicians have a lot of fault in this but we the people will have to at some point, acknowledge the role that we have played in creating and maintaining this status quo. At some point, Belizeans will have to demand more from their politicians than just the seasonal handout. We must demand honesty, integrity and decorum. When a politician grants a handout or a favor, do you really think that they are taking that out of their

25 own pockets? Does anyone really believe that Boots Martinez is funding this extravaganza in Port Loyola from his personal finances? If you do, then make me an offer and take all three bridges! At some point we will have to discuss campaign financing. We will also have to change the paradigm of judging people based on how much we can get from them financially. We must demand more! Once we take a politicians money, we sell away our right to demand rectitude. This current government has made a complete mess of this country. It would be a shame if they can buy their way back in, in particular when they will be using our own money to do so. Send comments to: gmikereid@hotmail.com.

Pot Use May Mellow Out Men’s Sexual Function Published February 11, 2011 | LiveScience Marijuana users sometimes report that pot enhances their desire for sex. But a new review of research on marijuana and sexual health suggests that male smokers could be courting sexual dysfunction. Research on the topic is contradictory and few studies are high-quality, said study researcher Rany Shamloul, a physician with appointments at the University of Ottawa and Queen’s University in Canada as well as the University of Cairo. But recent research – including the finding that the penis contains receptors for marijuana’s active ingredient – suggests that young men may want to think about long-term effects before rolling a joint, Shamloul told LiveScience. “It’s a strong message to our younger generations and younger men,” Shamloul said. Shamloul reported his findings online Jan. 26 in the Journal of Sexual Medicine. Sex and drugs Scientists first began to study marijuana and sex in the 1970s. Some researchers found that cannabis seemed to have the effect of a love drug; in one 1982 study published in the Journal of Psychoactive Drugs, 75 percent of male pot smokers said the drug enhanced their sex lives. Meanwhile, another study published in the same journal the same year found that erectile dysfunction was twice as common in marijuana users – not such good news for lit lotharios. Other research suggests a dose effect, in which small amounts of marijuana have little impact on sexual dysfunction, but more marijuana

makes for fewer erections. But problems are rife with this research, Shamloul said, because none of the studies used validated measurement techniques when surveying men about their sexual function. The different questions used could skew the responses, as could the drug itself, he noted in the review. The 39 percent of men in the original 1982 study who said marijuana extended the duration of sex may just have been experiencing the drug’s altering effects on the perception of time. What most concerns Shamloul is a study published in 2010 in the journal European Urology. In that study, researchers found receptors for tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the active ingredient in marijuana, in penis tissue from five male patients and six rhesus monkeys. These receptors were mainly in the smooth muscle of the penis, Shamloul said. Additional lab studies suggest that THC has an inhibitory effect on the muscle. “This is a more serious effect on the erectile function because the smooth muscle makes up 70 percent to 80 percent of the penis itself,” Shamloul said. Men and marijuana Marijuana use is widespread,

especially among men at their sexual peak in life, Shamloul said. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime reports that 162 million people worldwide use marijuana each year. More than 22 million use it daily. That makes understanding long-term effects important, Shamloul said. People tend to focus on the possible upsides of marijuana more than the possible downsides, said Sharon Johnson, a professor of social work at the University of Missouri, St. Louis,

who has studied marijuana use and sexual health in the past. Her study, published in 2004 in the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior, found that marijuana users have a slightly elevated risk of inhibited orgasms and pain during sex. (Johnson was not involved in Shamloul’s review study.) Research on sexual health and marijuana use in women is even less common than studies in men, Shamloul said. “What we are really missing are clinical studies,” Shamloul said. “We are stuck with only animal studies and molecular studies, and some clinical studies done in the ‘60s and ‘70s, most on a very small number of men… We need well-designed, placebocontrol studies examining marijuana’s effect in both the shortterm and long-term.”

en Español ECONOMÍA en declive = Estado en fracaso La arrogancia e insensatez del Primer Ministro ahora lo tienen sentado incómodamente atrapado entre una roca y un lugar duro. Hay una crisis en la industria azucarera. El mal manejo del Gobierno de esta crisis, o una serie de crisis, no augura nada bueno para el futuro de la industria. Para agregar a esto, se espera que haya un exceso de azúcar en el mercado mundial este año. El economista ha informado que la “ejecución de dulce de azúcar vendrán a y terminar con los precios sumidos en un 8 por ciento.” Para agregar al dolor y a la agonía de los agricultores de caña, el Sr. Barrow está tratando de vender su industria de debajo de sus pies. Él ha estado haciendo oberturas al Banco Atlántida. Este banco, como resultado del estímulo del Sr. Barrow, ha expresado su interés en la adquisición de las industrias de azúcar de Belice. Al menos eso de acuerdo con el Sr. Barrow. Fue debido a arduas y largas negociaciones entre el PUP, Tate y Lyle que los agricultores de caña ahora tienen las acciones principales en la industria. Ahora este Gobierno parece empeñado a cambiar eso. El Sr. Barrow pronto tendrá que dar muchas explicaciones a los agricultores de caña y al pueblo de Belice cuando esta crisis se vaya fuera de control - una vez más. No tardara mucho en suceder. Esto es sólo un ejemplo que este Gobierno está desorientado. No tienen ningún plan a largo plazo. Ellos tratan cuestiones y la crisis sólo cuando es políticamente oportuno. Este año habrá mucha Aleluya en el cinturón del cítrico. Escuche lo que le digo. El precio de naranjas es bueno y los agricultores cítricos han logrado reponerse de los estragos del huracán Richard, porque han producido una buena cosecha. Pero esto es cíclico. La congelación reciente en Florida también proporcionó una concesión a los agricultores cítricos en Belice para la recuperación. Pero esta industria sigue plagado por una guerra tribal perenne para alimentar el narcisismo de ciertos individuos y disgusto de los inversores. También es cada vez más evidente que la política entre bastidores está alimentando la mosca en la pomada. Por ahora, pero sólo por el momento, esta industria puede ser el contribuyente positivo para el producto interno bruto o el valor de los bienes y servicios. Agregar a este escenario ya sombrío esta el aumento de los precios de la gasolina y el gasóleo en la bomba y la calamidad en la industria del turismo de cruceros. Ambos tienen al Sr. Barrow entre la espada y la pared. Este último es como el resultado de prestatarias dentro del Ministerio de turismo y la Junta de turismo de Belice. La primera, porque el primer ministro, en una de sus muchas

promesas electorales, dijo que reduciría el precio del combustible en la bomba, “No importa que pase”. Ahora le toca hablar en lenguas sobre la cuestión. La realidad es que nuestra economía pequeña no puede mantenerse con el continuo aumento de los precios de combustible. El Gobierno tendrá que morder el polvo. Esta situación podría haber sido peor con tasas más altas de electricidad, debido a que el Sr. Barrow, cuando en la oposición, carecía de la visión para apoyar el PUP en alentar las inversiones en la hidroelectricidad y más tarde comenzó a tener una disputa con Belize Electricity Limited sobre tarifas de electricidad. Ahora él casi tiene que mendigar a los mexicanos para una tarifa especial de suministro de electricidad que venden a BEL a un precio aumentado. No lo obtendrá. No es la forma en que se realizan negocios, Sr. Barrow. Una vez más habrá fracasado a cumplir otra promesa de reducir las tasas de utilidad. Mientras tanto, desde que este Gobierno asumió el Liderazgo, el costo de vida se ha disparado, a pesar de un eslogan de campaña política prometiendo lo contrario. Ahora hay casi uno de cada dos beliceños que viven en la pobreza. El Sr. Barrow ha prometido no imponer más impuestos al pueblo. En realidad, él no puede. Al menos, no directamente. Nos ha impuesto demasiado en la alza de los impuestos. Pero por favor no tomen otra de sus promesas demasiado en serio. Estamos deseosos de discursos del presupuesto del primer ministro. Podemos predecir que en su entrega, será una vez más una exhibición de una persona enojada, el resultado de sus numerosos fracasos y sus intentos de dictadura. No podrá informar verazmente algún aumento del PIB. No será capaz de disipar el aumento de la tasa de desempleo. Él repetirá su mantra burlón de los pobres, y él va a leer su discurso de presupuesto que fue escrito a través de lentes fuertemente teñidos de color rosa. Pero hay algunas maneras simples para ayudar a mejorar esta imagen deprimente. No es que nos atrevemos a decirle cómo hacerlo, pero aun así, le sugerimos que comienze a reducir los excesos de su Gobierno y la incompetencia de su gabinete. También podría suspender el desmantelamiento del servicio público y emplear a administradores cualificados y profesionales y no lacayos que no tienen idea de lo que hacen. Y por último, pero no menos importante, señor Primer Ministro, deje de enriquecer a su familia desde el miserable erario público porque usted ya tiene a un Procurador General y a un personal jurídico pagado. Estos son solo algunos ejemplos.
