Unions will protest Friday in Belmopan
Belize’s labour unions will be demonstrating in Belmopan this Friday. According to a release from the National Trade Union Congress of Belize, the protest rally will coincide with the second day of budget debate in the House of Representatives. The N.T.U.C.B. is calling on all workers to support the action, which seeks the reinstatement of four employees fired by B.T.L., but also extends to general charges of corruption and mismanagement by government. The unions plan to follow up with public meetings around the country, beginning the night of March twenty-first in Orange Walk Town.
