Viewers give their say about restore Belize campaign
As we invariably do, tonight’s newscast began with the story of another murder. It is the third so far for this week and the month is just four days old. Crime is the number one pressing problem that the government has to solve. A long term initiative, Restore Belize, was unveiled by the government back in May, but for now gun violence continues to spread. On Tuesday government released a theme song to build awareness to the campaign. Last night we asked: Do you think that the anti crime measures of Restore Belize should have been addressed before the awareness campaign? Seventy-three percent of viewers who polled said yes while the remaining seventeen percent said no. On our e-poll, one said that the measures ought to come before the song and added that “The change must be holistic and it needs to come from within the Police Department, that is the only way there will be “buy in” from Belizeans.” To take part in the conversation all you have to do is to email comments to questions@channel5belize.com, send a text using your SMART phones to 8686, or log on to our e-poll at www.channel5belize.com.
I think the police is aware of all this killings, robbery anmd so on but them been the police gives them a sense of assorance that they can make living off all this activity that is ahppening in this country. The structure of the police department is not set up the investigate these men when hiring them. The law does not mandate the policemen into inquiry for such things, i mean if people are making the world know that our Police Department is corrupt then what more proff do we need to start investigate the Department, our maybe it won’t work since its police investigating police.
We need to restore ourselves as individuals with GOD…. Then we can restore our great NATION!!! CHANGE YOURSELF AND THE NATION WILL CHANGE. The CHURCHES NEED TO STEP-UP AND HELP IN THIS MATTER!!!!!!
