PHILIPSBURG:--- Ambassador Hushang Ansary and attorney Richard Gibson are accusing former Interim President of the Central Bank of Curaao and St. Maarten (CBCS) Jose Jardim of acting in bad faith and laid critical accusations against him in the ongoing Ennia saga. In a leaked document from a trusted and well-informed source, Gibson and Ansary have directed a letter to Jardim in response to the latters request for a zoom meeting to possibly resolve the Ennia issue on Wednesday, September 16.
