Ernest Saqui Maya Leader

By Ernesto Saqui

Ernesto Saqui Maya Leader is the life story in his own words of a teacher, Maya Centre Village Council Chairman, the first Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary Park Director, and a leading businessman in eco-cultural tourism of Maya Centre, Belize. Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary is the first preserve for the protection of jaguars in the world. In a simple, direct way he tells the story of his life, how he helped to develop the village of Maya Centre and turn around a community highly antagonistic to the Wildlife Sanctuary to one supportive of and supported by the Sanctuary. His story includes a delightful love story, a brief time in Belizean politics, and a strong commitment to Mayan culture and spirituality. As a Maya leader, Ernesto Saqui describes Mayan ways of life and thought. Reading his story is to dive into a Belizean indigenous culture.
