The local police should first start interrogations with the Rooster.

CONGRATULATIONS to each of the Saba students as they work to further their education. At this point in your life there’s nothing more important that you can do to better yourselves. Congratulations to you and your parents!

For five years only? Hmm, just a slap on the wrist, imo

With regard to the “Where Culture Lives” survey, I hope one or more respondents pointed out that we rarely, if ever, get a visiting classical music quartet or small orchestra. Live music is so important for a peaceful culture. We do not get any dance groups, either. I am retired from Boston Repetory Ballet and the absence of dance companies is particularly sad for me. I have asked the Netherlands Danse theatre and the Royal Dutch Ballet to appear at the Community Center in Windwardside and I hear ‘crickets.'(nothing)

This is almost offensive. With an island that has virtually zero crime – treating an event like it’s a security threat is off putting to say the least. Takes the fun out of it for sure. I’d rather stay home than support an action that makes Saba appear unsafe – which is exactly what this does.

I have been thinking of moving to Saba. It is disheartening to know that this degree of bullying exists. There is a notion, based I believe in fact, that hurt people tend to hurt others. The banner becomes: “Hurt people, hurt people.” I wonder if posting that in schools would make sense. People who hurt others do NOT LIKE to be considered as hurt themselves. Best to all of you.

We totally agree with this opinion. My wife and me had fractured ankles. I was transported to St. Maarten Medical Center by helicopter because of the fractured ankle and internal bleeding but my wife had to do the almost impossible task of boarding and departing with a fractured ankle on a WinAir flight to join me in St. Maarten. She was able to do this with tremendous assistance from the WinAir flight crew and ground personnel. They were friendly and helpful. But, there must be a better way for handicapped passengers to board and deplane WinAir flights.

Congratulations!!! To the Saba Harry L. Johnson Museum; especially to the one and only lady, Sherry Peterson, who for many years up-kept and maintain it’s visión and purpose on Small Saba. I would love to see a recognition of Ms. Sherry Peterson for all her hard work through out all those many years in opening the Saba Museum. She maintain the Saba Museum with care and love for the enrichment of Saban History and Culture!

I remember as a former staff; a young little boy growing up on Saba sitting in front of the Saba Museum steps, Listening to very inspiring stories of the olden days of Commissioner Ulric Hassell in the 1990s; The First Island Commissioner 1951-1955; He would tell me stories of how he used to work and sale on Big schooners and Merchant Ships! He used to recite poems from the top of his head even as an elderly man he nevered failed in his good-excellent memory! He was deeply rooted in the Saban Culture and Saban Traditions.
His daughter Ms. Sherry Peterson trained me to give give guided tours to assist her in The Museum since the age of 14 since 2003 and in the 1990s I was also Educated of Saban History by her Father Ulric Hassell. I remember his daughter Ms. Juliana Johnson born Hassell, she was a devote Roman Catholic and took good care of the Windwardside Catholic Church. They were a noble historic class Saban Family.
I remember Commissioner Steve Hassell: Son of Ulric Hassell: how beautiful through his administración he kept the Museum grounds so neatly clean, orderly and beautiful and The entire Island of Saba.

Jonathan Johnson served with Ethics and principles. very honorable to see him step aside so that it does not look like a Dictatorship! It is fair to say others deserve a chance! The New Lieutenant Governor should be a Native from the Mother Country the Netherlands! That way the Dutchmen can also Serve as intermediary to regulate the relentless issue of Nepotism on Saba! All Lieutenant Governors in All the 5 Dutch Netherlands Antilles islands Curacao, Aruba, St. Maarten, Bonaire, St. Eustatius and Saba should be born in Europe in the Mother Country to regulate and oversee issues of Nepotism and favoratism!
