St. Maarten Private Eye

I simply wanted to say that your article was well delivered. I actually picture the oposition lined up with bats in their hands, swinging away at the commissioner as she walks by each one of them.

I too am wondering what was the cause of this violent attack on her and her husband. If wrong was done then justice should prevail. However I do not feel satisfied with all of the explanations given as to their wrongdoings. All I hear is a lot of barking and snapping at the wounded prey.

Some intellectuals try to throw sand in our eyes, using "high fuluting" words, they hope we cannot understand and maybe that is the reason why I, a non intellectual cannot get a clear view of the situation. Your words I do understand.

Having heard the word "nepotism" but not fully understanding the impact it had, I resorted to study the books and look into the meaning and laws on such. If others would do so and not feel ashamed that they do not fully understand it's meaning, they would learn a lot more about "high fuluting words" used by many who try to discredit others.

Is it perhaps that toes were being stepped on. Not that I am saying that if wrong is being done that it should be covered up, but the info. that lead to all of this certainly came from within, possibly from someone with a mashed toe ???

I do feel that reprimands should have been made and the matter, even publicly, discussed and further education of members of boards of all government owned companies as to proper procedures, then I can understand that the situation be dealt with accordingly should it occur. But this viscious attack I still do not get.

Anyhow, keep up the good writing and I will surely be following your posts.
