  • Supreme Court Claim No. 376 of 2005
    IN THE SUPREME COURT OF BELIZE, A.D. 2005 CLAIM NO. 376 SAID MUSA Claimant BETWEEN AND ANN­MARIE WILLIAMS HARRY LAWRENCE REPORTER PRESS LIMITED Defendants __ BEFORE the Honourable Abdulai Conteh, Chief Justice. Mr. Kareem Musa for the claimant. Mr. Dean Barrow S.C. for the defendants. __ JUDGMENT Introduction Given the dramatis personae in this case which, by any account, contains an unusual cast, I had during the hearing constantly to remind myself that this was a trial of a claim in a court of law and not a political trial, whatever this may mean. On the one hand, is arrayed the Prime Minister and leader of one of the political parties (the PUP), who has his son as his attorney. Ranged on the other side is the Leader of the Opposition and the leader of the other main political party (the UDP) as the attorney for the defendants of whom the second defendant, Mr. H. 1 Lawrence admitted, albeit, under cross examination, that he was a founding member of the UDP. Mr. Lawrence who struck me as an honest witness now says his newspaper, The Reporter, supports no political party and has no partisan agenda. However, given the persons involved in this case, the political overtones of the case could not be missed. However, I need hardly say that this is a court of law and the issues joined between the parties are to be decided only in accordance with the law and evidence, and nothing more and nothing less. 2. Mr. Said Musa, the claimant in this case, is the Prime Minister of Belize, the Area Representative of the Fort George Division in the House of Representatives, leader of the People’s United Party (PUP), one of the two main political parties in the country, as well as a member of the bar with the rank of a Senior Counsel.

  • Pen Cayetano Art Exhibition 2010
    OPENING OF PEN CAYETANO’S ART EXHIBITION NOVEMBER 10, 2005 MEXICAN INSTITUTE I Myrtle Palacio “The problem with history, is that it is written by college professors about great men. That’s NOT what history is. History is a HELL OF A LOT OF PEOPLE getting together, and deciding they want a better life for themselves, and their children.” A Community Organizer The concept of culture implies ways of behaviour, language, belief systems, lifestyle, etc. Our cultural traits are symbols for purposes of self-identification, and for identification by others. But to what extent is culture used as a basis for investment in a people’s economic development? For example, Punta Rock has received national acceptance as Belize’s own dance and music. So for the past two decades, this music has been a cultural trait that we all share as Belizeans. Unfortunately, after all these years, Punta Rock as an economic contribution, is still more a potential than a reality. You see in our quest for modernization, which is mainly copying from outsiders, we have yet to learn to equate culture with development. What IF punta rock, or any other cultural trait is treated seriously enough to warrant economic potential? It would be developed, skills sharpened, as in the case of any other product. The benefits of capital investment in culture leading to economic growth are many. It is not only the expected economic outcome, but more importantly, in a non-material sense, it leads to improved concept of self, and a greater community spirit---the silent side of development that is absent from our communities.
