BPP STATEMENT ON INTERNATIONAL ANTI-CORRUPTION DAY - 2016

#UnitedAgainstCorruption As with the years preceding, in keeping with our principles, your Belize Progressive Party - BPP, stands firm in our commitment to champion this cause.

Re: GOB Moving Straight to Accession of UNCAC

To all the nay-sayers out there who tried to malign the BNTU for standing up for Belize, I say that the attached GOB press release is demonstrative of the effect that "PEOPLE POWER/LABOUR" possesses. Let us not exercise a selective memory regarding the occasion when the PM said that signing onto the UNCAC and bringing it into force would take a considerable amount of time. Don't forget that your Belize Progressive Party were the ones to inform, that Kenya signed and ratified

What does PUP have to do with SSB lending a Guatemalan company $12,000,000?

Bighand Banner posed this question to BPP's Chairman, Paco Smith - "While I'm 100% against all,and any kind of corruption, and all for change and good governance, kindly explain to me,how a UDP giving away/lending a Guatemalan company $12,000,000.00 of working men and women sweat and blood,have to do with PUP? I'm sure you can dig up much more recent dirts if you so chooses! Dean Barrow recently gave away $29,000,000.00 of BTL monies's because of arrogant,pettiness,and spite,

Afra Raymond: Three myths about corruption

Trinidad and Tobago amassed great wealth in the 1970s thanks to oil. But in 1982, a shocking fact was revealed -- that 2 out of every 3 dollars earmarked for development had been wasted or stolen. This has haunted Afra Raymond for 30 years. Shining a flashlight on a continued history of government corruption, Raymond gives us a reframing of financial crime. (Filmed at TEDxPortofSpain.) Afra Raymond has a blog with a vast wealth of information: https://afraraymond.wordpress.co

Charmian Gooch: Meet global corruption's hidden players

When the son of the president of a desperately poor country starts buying mansions and sportscars on an official monthly salary of $7,000, Charmian Gooch suggests, corruption is probably somewhere in the picture. In a blistering, eye-opening talk (and through several specific examples), she details how global corruption trackers follow the money -- to some surprisingly familiar faces.

This film, produced by NIA, graphically details four episodes in Jamaica's 50-year Post-Independence history, each of which speaks to how corruption undermines Jamaica's achievements.

Immigration scam perpetrated on at least 22, Immigration Minister denies involvement of officials

A major immigration scam, allegedly perpetrated on at least 22 persons who were seeking genuine Belizean citizenship, was kept under the radar until the matter was disclosed by Opposition member for Toledo West, Hon. Michael Espat, in the House of Representatives on Friday, December 4, 2015. Although Espat seemed to have been partially right, that an immigration scam did take place, he apparently misreported some of the facts, and now Immigration Minister Godwin Hulse is dema

BELIZE CITY, Wed. Dec. 9, 2015–Today is the United Nations International Anti-Corruption Day, a day which is recognized in the 178 countries which are signatories to the United Nations Convention on Corruption that countries began signing onto twelve years ago. Belize, however, is not a signatory to the convention, although corruption in Belize’s governance structure is so obvious at times that it is noticeable internationally – with clear examples of this being the Elvin Pen

In Honduras' chaos, a man's killing tells a nation's story

In this Sept. 16, 2015 photo, blood-stained Rigoberto Paredes is escorted in handcuffs by police in Tegucigalpa, Honduras after he fatally stabbed a lawyer who represented an official charged with fraudulent medicine sales to the government. Paredes was arrested by two security guards and while they waited for police, one of the guards pulled out his phone and recorded a conversation with the killer. "Nobody told me to do anything. This is the people, the people deserved it,"

US Ambassador Disappointed in Nanes Shnitzer Bail Debacle

David Nanes Shnitzer was caught on San Pedro on November third, the day before General Elections. He was taken to court on November sixth and charged for uttering on a forged driver's license. He was remanded to prison and got ten thousand dollars Supreme Court bail two weeks later - despite the fact that his passport had been revoked two days earlier on November the 18th. He hasn't been seen since. It's caused consternation in Mexico where authorities there wanted Nanes Shni

From the Chairman's Desk

Belizeans and true friends of Belize, Today you go to the polls in order to elect those who shall represent you and ultimately form the next Government of Belize. Your Belize Progressive Party has fought hard over the past several weeks toward providing you with the only viable, national alternative to the corrupt forces of the UDP and PUP, who basically have raped and pillaged this nation's resources for the past 34 years. As Belizeans we love to complain, yet on this occasi
