By Zoila Palma: Former Minister of Agriculture and Orange Walk South Area Representative Jose Abelardo Mai is making progress in his recovery following a second surgical procedure on his right knee in Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico.
Mai recently returned to Belize after spending 12 days in Mérida, where he underwent an arthroscopic procedure at Humanity Hospital on October 20.
He also received therapy during his stay and is now continuing his recovery at home, with six additional weeks of therapy scheduled in Belize.
Despite his recovery, Mai attended and addressed the inauguration of the Better Beef Belize meat processing facility on Mile 3 of the San Estevan Road in Orange Walk on November 6.
During his address, he highlighted the importance of the facility in diversifying Belize’s agricultural sector, particularly in northern Belize, as sugar cane farmers face challenges in the industry.
Mai was also involved in the initiative approximately two years ago, when he, along with his advisor Hugh O’Brien, the Livestock Director and staff of the Orange Walk Agriculture Department, met with the Canadian investors to provide guidance, particularly on meeting Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) certification requirements through the Belize Agricultural Health Authority (BAHA).
Mai says that while he continues on his road to recovery, he remains engaged with producers in his constituency, providing technical guidance and support.
