PHILIPSBURG:--- MP Wescot-Williams again challenges the legitimacy of the NA/UP Government, in the absence of any agreement that shows that at least 8 members are in support of this government.

Its total disrespect to the parliament and the people.

We can recall how the support of two new/additional members was announced at the end of June, more than 5 months ago.

Notwithstanding my request for an official communique to parliament; notwithstanding my request for a debate of the governments year plan for the 2022-2023 parliamentary year, it remains a deafening silence.

In all of this, the appointment of a Tourism, Economic Affairs, Telecommunication, and Transportation minister remains shrouded in mystery, the MP added, and one can not help but wonder why Read more

Mp Sarah Wescot-Williams, Body Searches Sad And Unacceptable.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten, – MP Sarah Wescot-Williams was appalled by not only the two incidents as described in recent publications regarding so-called search tactics used by the police in Philipsburg against two citizens, but also by the reaction of the police top.

I cringed at reading how our officer(s) misused their power and humiliated the persons involved.
Especially for the woman and the circumstance in which she found herself, it must have been a most terrifying and humiliating experience.

As a woman, mother, grandmother, I cant but condemn in the strongest possible way that any of our citizens, unless posing a serious and life-threatening danger, be subjected to this type of bodily violation Read more
