UDP LOSE 2 % POINTS ON REPORT CARD - NEW SCORE 2% APPROVAL RATING

** Gaspar Vega, Forestry Dept. Cabinet UDP Minister. Is he a well liked, bumbling incompetent politician, or too smart, corrupt political type criminal? You can decide, as cable TV investigative reporters in Belize, reveal the sordid GREED based SCAM of protected ROSEWOOD exporting. This is SOAP OPERA entertainment Belizean style, as we the public wait with bated breath for the newest media revelations.
** Marcello Windsor, Chief Forest Officer, Belmopan.
UDP GOVERNMENT LOSE 2 PERCENTAGE POINTS ON THEIR PERFORMANCE IN GOVERNING REPORT CARD.

The loss is because of the FORESTRY DEPARTMENT. A re-run of the media interview with the Chief Forestry Officer last week, done this following week on evening TV, in which he asked the media to come to his office on Monday after the weekend, to get the list of HOLDERS of ROSEWOOD raw commodity logs, to be exported in containers. The media are reporting by Wednesday morning, with failure. Plain stonewalling by the Forestry Department. At least one media station on local cable TV was claiming to have gone 4 different times over Monday and Tuesday to get the list of license holders promised to them by the Chief Forest Officer last week.

Speculation among the public is rife with ideas for the stonewalling, blockage, prevention of the media from getting the list of licensed, permited persons authorized to export a restricted rare wood species, from Belize in a raw commodity state.

SPECULATION:
a) Chief Forestry Officer was lying?
b) Chief Forestry Officer is incompetent?
c) Chief Forestry Officer is under instructions from Cabinet Minister, Gaspar Vega to avoid the media?
d) Political shennanigans and corruption will be the result of the media following the money trail in this SCAM? So orders have come down from on high, to prevent it?

You name it, and some section of the public will think the worst in these conspiracy theories. At any rate, it is no way to run a government, even if this is standard politicial operating procedure to do with the Forestry Department. So the UDP CABINET lose 2 points from their PERFORMANCE APPROVAL RATING REPORT CARD.
