Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
THE HAGUE--Dutch State Secretary of Home Affairs and Kingdom Relations Raymond Knops last week asked St. Maarten Finance Minister Ardwell Irion to cease the procedure of floating a NAf. 75 million bond on the local capital market to raise funds to cover governments operational costs.
Knops made his request in a letter that he sent to Irion last week. He asked the minister to halt the procedure and to officially have the loan request documentation placed on the agenda of the next Kingdom Council of Ministers meeting for correct and legitimate decision-taking.
