St. Maarten Private Eye

Seems to me your comment is designed to stir people up, particularly those who care about what has happened at Dawn Beach, elsewhere, and is still going on, the environmental rape of the island. Perhaps you don't know the Westin has Philippino house maids, or that "Pinnochio" Roy lied when he said the project would first create 450 jobs, then 300, then 250. I suggest you go take a stroll around the resort and ask the staff where they are from. I think you will find a large percentage are foreigners.

Whether they 'know it all' is up for debate, but its seems clear to me that Mr. Martin is a highly educated and respected man and your criticism and scornful remark puts you somewhere else on the scale of 'knowing it all', the other end. Is your problem with 'foreigners' in general, or just people smarter than you are?

Some people use the anonymous comment option here so they can talk freely and not be afraid of consequences. Some use it to avoid being identified as a fool. Please take your bigotry and ignorance elsewhere, this site seeks intelligent and meaningful discussion and debate and you don't fit in, sorry.

And thank you Mr Martin, for saying publicly what we have said here many times, it's great to have an educated opinion on Roy.
