News of the Western Belize Recreational Area, about 500 square miles of waterfalls, caves, Mayan ruins and pyramids, Belize Alps, foothills, ranches and farms, tourist accomodations of all types and description, tours and expeditions for vacationers and visitors. Even a small growing expatriate retirement group of people from different countries. In Belize, this is where it is happening, all the things that are fun and even serious, with a climate of ETERNAL SPRING.

BELIZE POLICING THUGGERY BRINGS BLACK EYE INTERNATIONALLY AND LOCALLY.
BELIZE POLICING CONTINUES TO BRING BLACK EYE ON THE COUNTRY POLICING SYSTEM
For 45 years citizens of Belize have tried to change the policing system in Belize. The inherited police system is an inherited colonial model, intended to serve political masters of the government. To this day, the police system does that. Thuggery is rewarded over professionalism. Nor, is any change on the horizon. The government itself is an elected one party dictatorship for five years. Promotions depend on favoritism to political masters in the CABINET.
So many attempts to clean up the police force have been made and all have met with failure. The Belize policing system is not as corrupt as India, nor as deadly as that of Syria. Yet the desire for a professional police force among the voters and citizenry is still a DREAM, unfulfilled.
