posted (October 8, 2019)
On Friday, the write-off loan motion for Joshua Perdomo's 40,000 dollar student loan went back to the House of Representatives - where 17 members on the UDP side voted yes to approve it.

And, today the PUP's youth arm, known as the BYM sent out a release demanding a loan write-off for all students. The release says, "the Belize Youth Movement is making a call to all the Belizean Youth to rise up and demand that their student loans be also written off….Let us demand that what is good for them is also good for everyone." End quote.

As we have reported Joshua Perdomo is the son of Cabinet secretary Carlos Perdomo. Government has said it is statute barred from recovering the money after 6 years.
