For the latest news across Belize, visit: http://edition.channel5belize.com/ Defending Taiwan’s rice donation was Minister Anthony ‘Boots’ Martinez. The Minister says that anyone would prefer cash donation but in this case, the ten thousand bags of rice was donated due to the surplus of the grain in Taiwan. It’s part of the “Taiwan Rice Donation for Humanitarian Relief” project which according to Martinez, the Ministry of Human Development, Social Transformation, and Poverty Alleviation has been tasked with distributing. In responding to the concerns raised by Jose Mai, Minister Martinez says Taiwan’s donation is being politicized.
