Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
PHILIPSBURG--Vice Chairman Stuart Johnson has been appointed Interim Head of the Supervisory Board at Postal Services St. Maarten N.V. (PSS), after Chairman of the Board Hubert Pantophlet officially resigned from his position. His resignation is connected to an ongoing court case between PSS, the Government of St. Maarten, and former PSS Director Denicio Richardson.
Pantophlet is said to have stepped aside due to his direct involvement with the case. Prime Minister Sarah Wescot-Williams, who is PSS shareholder representative, accepted his resignation in a letter on July 26, after he had initially submitted his resignation on July 9.
The PM, who met with board members recently, along with her legal advisor Hensley Plantijn, stated that she would appoint a new Chairman.
Pantophlet, however, is still a member of the board, along with Johnson and Julien Lake.
