By Zoila Palma: Minister of Tourism, Youth, Sports and Diaspora Relations Anthony Mahler says that Belize remains a safe destination.
Mahler told News5 Belize that he continues to work closely with the National Security Council to ensure safety measures are in place.
Mahler says that during the horrific hijacking of the Tropic Air plane on April 17, they had been in discussions during a national security council meeting.
“We were a part of the entire discussion from the whole thing started. We were in constant communication with the security people and we had a national security council meeting that we were invited to on that same morning after the tragic event happened. I want to say thank you to the pilot and all the people on board who withstood that madness,” Mahler said.
Mahler added that the Ministry is doing damage control and ensuring that visitors know that Belize is still a safe destination, compared to many and that it is still worthwhile coming to Belize.
