Shark Bait

Yo! Wanna borrow a net?
Our poor Prime Minister, no longer has a net to save him!
The ‘poor fish’ are biting back!

No net can aid against:
Those who seek justice!
So sudden –
Unexpected –
But sure!

ETHANOL

Today I want to tell you about an opportunity that I think has the potential to make Belize an incredible amount of money!!!

President Bush has reaffirmed his commitment to pursuing production of alternative renewable energy sources - and of those, ethanol is perhaps the most viable.

Ethanol is produced as a byproduct of corn and sugar, and in my opinion it will underpin the price of corn and sugar over the coming years. The rising cost of fertilizer has discouraged farmers from planting corn. Instead they are using their land to cultivate cheaper crop products.

What's more, the drive toward ethanol use will only hurt the volume available for domestic use and export. Plus, we have discovered that China is now consuming more of its own corn crop and exporting less than ever before! In the first quarter alone, Chinese corn exports slumped 30%!

In a recent Bloomberg story, Robert Greer, product manager for the PIMCO Commodity Real Return Strategy Fund, said, "Keep your eye on energy produced from grains and sugar. The U.S. now produces 40% of the world's corn - and 14% of that is going into ethanol. America is the Saudi Arabia of corn."  Why can’t Belize get in on this with its corn and sugar products???
