St. Maarten Private Eye

When will we learn from past mistakes. Since the early eighties there have been numerous dissasters: Hurricanes, greedy government official, blind inspectors, ruthless investors. It's all nice and well to invite everyone to come to the island and put their stamp of ownership on their little piece of the rock. Everyone loves SXM until the rain and wind comes. Then they all pack up for dryer pastures. Ask Ansari when he's coming back to bulldoze the derelick buildings at Mullet. WE the SXM people are to blame aswell. We tolorate the development. Most St.Maarteners have not been lately to the cupecoy area or Oysterpond. Everyday you can see persons shaking their heads when passing the former Bells property, the future indego bay. We the St.Maarten people have to say enough is enough. Stop the uncontrolled developement.
