A couple of weeks ago a letter was in the Today paper suggesting the a Human Rights Commissioner be appointed or perhaps be added to a current commissioner's portfolio.
St. Maarten desperately needs an independant Human and Civil Rights Organisation, not a political party commissioner who probably doesn't really understand or care much for the job, not to mention the political conflicts of interest that would arise.
What I am interested to know is. Are there any people on the island who would support and be involved with such a organisation? Not only that, but also support it or lobby in Holland for support and funds for it?

Every week something new comes along, last week it was the stranded passengers, I think you all know that I could also real off a long long list of cases that should be investigated and for which people should be held accountable. Young children removed from family and parents with no access allowed, (immigration) the damage this could cause those children could be life changing from such an experience.
Detainees beaten in the police station (apparently) with NO investigation carried out as yet.
Need more....??
No , I don't think you do. We know we need such an organisation. How can we make it happen?
