Dear Editor,
The Dutch are blessed and care for the best for everyone on St Maarten. Construction workers appreciate the recovery progress. But there is one thing the construction workers always worried and concern about: the way police deals with the exploiters and bad pay masters on the island of St. Maarten within the construction and elsewhere not expected. These laws must change so that the police can put more (pressure, pressure, pressure) on those bad pay masters on the Island.
It is too often police telling the employees – the poor men – to get a lawyer to get pay and it is proven the person worked and was not paid. Many times the police said the laws are not stupid they are funny. It’s time for the politicians to change them. After all it is time the Ombudsman, parliamentarians, Prime Minister, policemen, Labour Minister and Justice Minister come together give the police more power to help the citizens better.
St. Maarten is in need of a small claims court (2018) – the poor men is hurting.
