Opinion: Modernization or pacifier?
The calculation and working methods of RCN and of CPB themselves also need to be improved.

Highest point Under the Hill buildings celebrated
In the US, we raise an American flag at the top , to signify that the peak has been constructed AND that no major injuries to the workers had occurred. Construction tradition for many years.

Minister Carola Schouten calls the poverty problem in the Caribbean Netherlands "shockingly large"
It seems that the ministers are only really aware of the issues we are facing in the Caribbean Netherlands, when they visit the islands themselves. Great that it is realized tho and steps are taken to alleviate poverty.
As a small business owner on the island, I am concerned about raising the minimum wages even more (there was already a significant raise) as we, the small business owners, will feel the brunt of it. We also are feeling the pinch of higher energy costs, higher cost of living etc. It does affect us as well. Solution would be to reduce the cost of living on the island across the board, certainly look into the cost of transportation whether personal (Winair) or commercial (cargo boats).

Here’s a thought:
If you can’t afford to pay your employees a living wage, then you’re not running a viable business.

I’m happy that I have a viable business and can pay my personnel above minimum wage. As president of the SBA I’m well aware that not all businesses can say the same.

Care agreement between Eye Care Optical Saba and ZJCN continues until the 31st of December, 2022
I am so, so grateful to read this as Lucy saved my eyesight (due to her early detection of my glaucoma). Even my eye surgeon in the U.S. says she deserves all the credit. Thanks to her expertise and quick action prescribing the correct medicine and frequently monitoring my eye pressures, I received no damage to my optical nerve. Having her here on island is invaluable to me. You cannot put a price on your vision and she is a true eye care professional deserving of respect. I am very grateful we are not losing her ❤

Police report of Friday the 24th of June until Monday the 27th of June 2022
BOTH….suffered an epileptic seizure at the same time ? Very odd. Driver license should be revoked with a medical history of seizures.

Police report of Friday the 24th of June until Monday the 27th of June 2022
We’ll see a lot more of these messages in the future, thanks to the new traffic ordinance. Who got the bright idea to increase the maximum speed on our roads by 50%?
Draw your own conclusions. Forcing the police to uphold the original speed limits on our roads would have been a must safer solution to avoid accidents.
The elections are coming …… Safe your life.
