AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Aviation & Tourism Connectivity: BermudAir says it’s adding winter routes to Belize, Turks and Caicos and Guatemala City, with new nonstop options from multiple U.S. gateways, plus expanded service to Anguilla—another push for year-round regional airlift. Fuel Cost Pressure: Belize’s business lobby (BCCI) is renewing calls for temporary fuel tax relief and tighter pass-through of global price drops, arguing pump prices remain high and diesel users are hit hardest. Energy Transition & Transport: UNDP is sharing early results from Belize’s electric bus pilot in Belmopan, while regional energy talks keep spotlighting rising fuel costs and electrification. Construction & Labour Crunch: Immigration officials confirm labour shortages across agriculture, construction and tourism, with employers increasingly turning to work permits for both manual and skilled gaps. Inflation Watch: SIB reports April inflation up 2.9% year-on-year, driven by higher transport costs (diesel and gasoline) and food increases. Sargassum-to-Textiles: Belize-based “Bloom to Business” is partnering with marine science and textile networks to turn sargassum into sustainable fiber and create local jobs. Infrastructure for Ambergris Caye: Reports say IDB has approved designs for a proposed San Pedro International Airport, raising big opportunity questions about readiness and planning. Governance & Planning: San Pedro leaders move toward an urban planning committee as Cabinet approves a short moratorium on high-rise development in nearby coastal areas. Crime & Enforcement: Coast Guard operations net illegal fishing suspects near Gladden Spit, underscoring continued pressure on IUU fishing in southern waters.
