CITCO continues public pressure for Head Tax money
Last Wednesday, the Belize City Council made public its intention to lobby the Musa administration for one U.S. dollar of the seven dollar head tax collected from arriving cruise ship passengers. Since then the council has launched a city wide advertising campaign to publicise the issue and according to Mayor Zenaida Moya, are soliciting the unions, businesses, and even the cruise lines for support. At a press conference this afternoon Moya maintained that government should give them the money because the BTB no longer needs it.
