$10 Million for 9 Streetlights?

Per our tour guide in Belize City, Taiwan gave $10 Million dollars for street lights.

And so far only 9 have been installed in a couple of years.

This could be part of the reason that Belize recognizes Taiwan :-)

Corruption unfortunately is a major problem, as in many other countries, in Belize.  Corruption is very destructive to a country.
