The Belize Port Authority is proud to announce that the Prime Minister of Belize will be attending the ACMF Anchor Awards Gala this November to solidify the partnership we’ve been developing between the ACMF and Belize, through the Belize Port Authority.

Through this initiative, we are one step closer to making maritime scholarships available for Belizean students, opening new opportunities for growth and professional development within the sector.

This partnership will represent a transformative step for Belize’s future workforce. It will not only provide educational opportunities for young Belizeans but also strengthen the country’s capacity in maritime governance, port management, logistics, and engineering.

To underscore the importance of this collaboration, the Prime Minister of Belize, Hon. John Briceño, has confirmed his attendance at the 2025 ACMF Anchor Awards in November, where we hope he can announce that 10 students from Belize will be awarded scholarships beginning as early as next year.

CAYE CAULKER COULD EARN MILLIONS IN REVENUE

Tomorrow, the residents of Caye Caulker will cast a historic vote that could pave the way for a responsible, regulated, and taxable cannabis industry on the island.

It is a decision that has the potential to generate millions of dollars in dedicated annual revenue for local community projects.

The proposed framework stipulates that the Caye Caulker Village Council would receive an unprecedented 50 per cent of all tax revenues collected from cannabis sales on the island.

These funds are earmarked for direct investment in critical local areas, including infrastructure upgrades, healthcare services, education, and other pressing community needs.

To understand the scale of the opportunity, BNN has conducted an analysis of the potential market.

If the local industry successfully captures a segment of the estimated national demand, the financial impact would be transformative.

Our estimates, based on a conservative analysis of consumer data, project that serving just a fraction of the potential market could lead to the consumption of over 25 million grams annually.

At a projected retail price of $6.75 per gram (inclusive of GST), this could generate approximately $170 million in total revenue.

From this revenue stream, an estimated $21.2 million would be collected in taxes.

Under the proposed model, $10.6 million of that or half of the total tax revenue would then be allocated directly to the Caye Caulker Village Council.

Therefore, tomorrow’s vote is not merely about cannabis legalization; it is a referendum on whether Caye Caulker will seize a powerful new tool to finance its own future.

The people of Caye Caulker now stand to decide if they will harness this economic potential for the direct and lasting benefit of their community.
