WAS BELIZE DISTRICT BUS CONTRACTORS VOICES SILENCE BY RESTRICTIONS ON GROUP TO ADMINISTRATORS ONLY?

Some school bus contractors in the Belize District say they are now being forced to join the ongoing strike involving bus contractors in the Cayo and southern districts, following continued delays in payments for transportation services already provided.

According to the contractors, they were promised that outstanding payments would be made by Monday evening. However, they say they have yet to receive those payments.

The situation reportedly escalated today in the Belize District Bus Contractors group chat, where several contractors were voicing their frustrations. One member responded with what could be considered a vulgar message, after which the administrator, Mr. Sebastian Kab of the Buli District Education Center, reportedly changed the group settings so that only the administrator could could comment in the group chat.

Contractors say the move has left them feeling that they are being prevented from expressing their concerns.

The contractors maintain that they are not the “bad guys” in the situation, saying they continue to provide transportation services and do their best to get students to and from school, but are finding it increasingly difficult t0
If one were to look at the bottom of the first screenshot, one would see that the voice of the members have been silenced .
