"This project is very much needed, but it will never see furition or be sustainable unless the Government of Belize takes an active role in implementing it. There have certainly been many generous offers of assistance from groups and individuals on this thread. Hopefully that expertise could be utilized by the Government, but the Government would expect to have control,and righfully so. This is a problem for all of Belize."

Health issues know no season or vacation schedule. They are never scheduled for availability of volunteers. The only constant is the Government of Belize. It's not only their job, but they are always here. None of volunteers so eagerly posting mention a word about petitioning the government as well as coming to a "summit". Why is that?

I hope that someday we can put aside our fears and prejudices and just laugh at people.
