posted (August 9, 2019)
Commissioner of Police, Chester Williams just returned from a trip to London. The Ahmadiyya Muslim group invited him along with other Belizeans to attend this year's Jalsa Salana. It is a massive convention that sees the participation of Muslims from all over the world. Williams told us about about his experience.

Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police
"My trip was productive in the sense that I got an opportunity to see different work that the Ahmadiyya Muslim do in respective communities across the world and you would know we have them in Belize and the work that they do on weekends they have the Ahmadiyya basketball tournament which again I applaud in the sense that it is where young people gather to engage in sporting activities, I believe in intervention through sports and I think if we have more people who do things like this it will be good. The message from His Holiness is that as Ahmadiyya Muslims is that they need to promote peace across the world and to work with different agencies to be able to ensure that we reach out to young people."

It was a one week trip. Williams also gave a 2 minute presentation at the convention. The theme was Love for all and hate for none.
