“My pet issue is that I don’t think we should allow our system to be taken over by the Espats and the Musas. We have enough people of our own to do our own ruling of our people. You know the fact that a small group of Belizean Arabs can even believe that they can take over our country, and take over a major political party like the P.U.P., is very presumptive in my view. And I think we need to say to them that is not going to work.”
