St. Maarten Private Eye

Neither the new status or a new gov structure will be in place. The Dutch "technical assistance haven't even arrived yet, the majority gets here in Sep. Then BEFORE we can do anything, there are issues of currency, security etc etc STILL to be discussed and finalised. And as much as local politicians spin the rhetoric that we can move forward without Curacao, fact is we can't. Look, I want the status I voted for also, but i would much rather them take their time and 4 years to achieve it in an organised, structured manner than rush us into chaos. There will be no Sep. Status in 08 and there will be no Elections either. Notice William Marlin's cunning statement on the day he was swonr in. He knows it to. He jumped the gun to announce that he doesnt think it is attainable just so when the time comes he will have grounds to say "I told you so" and blame whoever. What he said that day is what all of the politicians know for a fact!
