There's been a major shakeup in the tourism industry, specifically, the Belize Tourism Board of Directors.
The firings this week of at least two board directors by Minister of Tourism, Manuel Heredia has sent shock waves through the industry. They are Santino Castillo and Stanley Longsworth, Jr.
"It came like a thief in the night," says popular businessman, Castillo, who is - for the next week, at least - the current Vice-Chairman of the Board.
He received his dismissal letter today from the Minister, which thanked him for his service, and advised him that as of Tuesday, February 15th, his term will expire with the Board. The second director fired, Stanley Longsworth, Jr is said to have received his dismissal letter sometime yesterday. Board members all serve at the pleasure of the Minister of Tourism.
