Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
THE HAGUE--Solidarity within the Kingdom of the Netherlands is a lovely principle, but it needs to be mutual and equally invested in by all partners, according to Member of the Second Camber of the Dutch Parliament Chris van Dam of the Christian Democratic Party CDA.
One of the most beautiful articles in our Charter is article 36 which states that the Netherlands, Aruba, Curaao and St. Maarten help and support each other. That is the core of the principle of solidarity within the Kingdom. In cases of hardship, you help each other. And that hardship is definitely present, said Van Dam in an opinion article published in Saturdays Antilliaans Dagblad.
