Price of a cylinder of butane goes up
If you’re heading out to buy butane, you’ll need an extra two bucks because the prices have increased as of Monday. That puts the price in Belize City and Corozal at one hundred and twelve dollars. In Orange Walk, the cooking gas is being sold for a hundred and thirteen dollars while in Belmopan and San Ignacio the price of the hundred pound cylinder is a hundred and fourteen. Further west, in Benque the price is a bit higher at one hundred and fifteen dollars. But as usual, the highest prices are in the south due to transportation cost. So if you’re down in Dangriga, you’ll be paying a hundred and sixteen dollars for butane or a hundred and seventeen if you’re buying in Punta Gorda.
TIME TO SPARK UP THE FIRE HEART……….
I thought that the oil being taken from Belize would help lower the cost of gas and other oil by-products.. FTS.. Govt needs to get off it’s lazy … and start doing it’s job.
So much for the promise of keeping the cost of living down. I would love to hear the PM comment on this.
His reply will be “We need to allow more drilling so more oil can be found, so my pocket can get fatter and so the people can suffer more.”
They do not care about us.
i could hear the pm with some bullcaka story
no wonder his says there a rise in the growth of economic and things d florish, he’s insane people he thinks we’re stupid to swallow his lies, we’re not simpliss nor simple mr. barrow. everything the go up and we have to send workers home because there’s no more job. things are frustating now. Damm!!!
‘ WILL BRING DOWN D COST OF LIVING NO MATTA WHAT” that was the promise the Hon.PRIME MINISTER DEAN OLIVER LIAD BARROW”……….before elections and after nearly 3 years in power everything has gotten worst in Belize,46 % of our country is in poverty…GST {Killa vat} has gone up to 25%,UNEMPLOYMENT IS EXTREMELY HIGH, soon it will become the murder capital of the world, but the prime minister has the shame to go spend our tax $$$$ abroad with his wife and buy fancy jewelry and new SUV’s..’, AND WE BELIZEANS ONLY HAVE TO WAIT- until ,’while the grass the grow the cow d dead”………ONLY IMAGINE THE POSIBILITIES.
How are we going to cook our Noodles now?
We could all just switch over to Biodigestors and use naturally forming mehtane gas to cook our food. here is a link from a womens group in costa rica who have built many for themselves and other communities…..FREE GAS FOR THE PEOPLE

What i would like to see this present administration do is find the technology to harness all those natural gas that is being burned off from the oil wells and convert it to be used for cooking and to run machinery and so on and so forth. Someone needs to school me and let me know why is it that none of our enterprising Businessmen have not jumped on such an investment.
Or are they waiting for a foreigner to come and do it then complain about the unleveled playing field?
Mein…. the amount of resourses that Belize have along with such a small population, there is no way on God’s green earth that our poverty index should be pushing up on 50%. NO WAY!!!!
But, the Leaders that have been elected to office since self government are only concerned with enriching themselves their families and friends. It is plain for all to see. Exchanging PUP for UDP at the polls is like changing white monkey for white dog. Cold talk!!…………and who bex………bex!!!!!
