When media professionals gave up 50%

Posted: Friday, April 9, 2021. 9:44 am CST.

By Zoila Palma: In 2020, as the world grappled with the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic, many businesses were forced to close.

Media professionals remained committed and steadfast in providing accurate and timely information to the public.

It was not made public but within media circles, newsrooms discussed the urgent need for a salary cut due to the economic situation.

Several media professionals went on a 50% salary cut for months and some companies opted to work with a skeleton staff, having to let go several workers.

The COVID-19 pandemic has gone into a second year affecting the way we live, the way we work, and the way we study.

COVID-19 vaccination campaigns continue to roll out to protect family and friends from the deadly virus.

However, there may be no quick solution to the dire financial situation our country faces, as well as the unemployment issues, and low business sales.

In order to save Belize, it is crucial for every Belizean to educate themselves on the financial state of affairs of their country, the need for hard decisions and sacrifices, and the importance of saving Belize.

This jewel is ours, ours to love, ours to protect and ours to save.

While many may say, those that have plundered should be made to pay, and it is rightly so, the reality is that urgent action is needed to salvage our economy and our way of life.

What will we do?
