The country is facing extreme economic difficulties with no leadership from the government. Key issues include high unemployment, businesses closing, declining foreign investment, and poverty. The government has not passed a budget in months and is being run remotely by the Prime Minister. Major reforms are needed to stimulate the economy, including streamlining regulations, reducing taxes, and encouraging agriculture and tourism. International investors have proposed projects that would create jobs but the government is not providing adequate support and cooperation. The people of Belize must demand better leadership and solutions from their government.
