P.M. Briceño Celebrates Four Years in Office

Monday, November eleventh, marked the fourth anniversary of the Briceño administration’s election victory. During today’s sitting of the house, Prime Minister John Briceño took a moment to reflect on the 2020 election and how his administration has delivered on its promises. In a half-hour address, PM Briceño covered a wide range of topics, including inflation, poverty, health, education, and agriculture. His language had the tone of a state of the nation address or even a campaign speech. With a general election on the horizon, he seized the opportunity to remind Belizeans of the achievements his administration has made with their support.

“Four years ago, yesterday, the people of Belize entrusted my party the People’s United Party with the task of fixing what at the time was a broken nation. It was an overwhelming mandate. It was not an occasion for wild celebration. It was a sobering experience, because we were trusted with the responsibility to steward this nation through what was essentially the worst of times. Must have been done to right our ship. But, the work continues. Good progress is incremental. Once again, on behalf of our party, the P.U.P, I sincerely thank all Belizeans for the awesome responsibility they have entrusted us. I promise we will never take your for granted or betray your confidence. As you all know 2025 is an election year and we will be once again asking the Belizean people for us to continue to build a Belize where everybody fih win.”
