I have read multiple news reports and its weird but yet expected which ones were the ones that caught my attention. These are things that I would write about. These things are based on our daily lives as Belizeans. If it is Capital Punishment or Negligence while driving. Many can relate to the fuel prices and the Abusive Relationships. These are issues that we must be involved in before it happens to us. We should try to prevent it before it gets bigger. We can lend support and not just let it go on like a hopeless case. We should fight and stand for what we believe in because as many people who did so before us know that it is not an easy task. It can take years or a revolution to show them that we are the voice and that we , Belizeans, say how it should go. Many of times I start to realize that if it wasn't for us Belize would be a better country. If we took a stand against violence, bribery , corruption, and many more things we could have strived for a better Belize. We are cowards, talking where no one can hear us, and keeping quiet expecting others to take the first step. Will I ever sit down during news and not hear a murder announcement. I wonder if I will ever hear one of my friends mentioned as a murder victim. Till where will we go until its to late? Will you as an individual cry for justice when a loved one has been robbed from your side? These are things to think about. I am a coward. I fear that I am not well equipped to defend my point and thus fail miserably. But if anyone would make a stand I would sure be there in solidarity. Sincerely these are the things I feel when reading through these reports. Angry for letting it get so out of hand.
Recommendation:
My recommendations are simple but I do believe it takes a lot to follow. I would find it hard to do sometimes if I was ever put to make a decision . Question is would I make the ethical choice? Would I know the ethical thing to do?
-I would simply say to fight for what you believe in. Its very simple but takes a lot more courage to do. You might need to stand against your family or friends but you would have a clear conscience.
-Another recommendation is to try your best to not support crime or any illegal or immoral activity. Its hard to do but always be open because the situation might not be what it appears to be. An example don't support contraband or don't buy stolen goods, don't bribe police officers or transport or any other public officer. It is hard for them not to do it for you to be offering it.
-Say no to extortions , this is where you need to take a stand and report these officers.
-Always follow the laws.
