Dear Editor,
It will be very shameful and disgraceful of Emil Lee to sit in a public office and don't have a master plan for the east side of St. Maarten at the Dawn Beach and Oyster pond area.
Oh my God! Why can’t these politicians not see the Dawn Beach and Oyster need to be beautified; this area urgently needs some beautification, and if Emil Lee is not pushing to have Dawn Beach and Oyster pond area beautified he should step down from public office.
There are businesses in the area of Dawn Beach and Oyster Pond such as hotels, Captain Oliver’s Mariner, restaurants and nightly activities, a casino and many more at Dawn Beach/ Oyster Pond location east side of the island. Where one of the most beautiful hotels in St. Maarten and the Caribbean is located. We are calling on government to give this area an urgent lift.
Hundreds of people use this area early morning and evening hours; we the citizens are calling on St. Maarten’s Government for proper sidewalks and street lights from the border through the Oyster Bay hotel entrance through Princess Heights, though the Westin hotel. The road is too narrow and urgently needs enlarging.
I, Cuthbert Bannis, will like to accompany these politicians to show parliamentarians and ministers areas on the east that urgently need up lifting and beautifying. Check the bad spots on the road from the hillside; let’s take down some of this hill and open the road
from Oyster Pond through Dawn Beach through Guana Bay to Philipsburg. By doing so the east side can be as busy as the Maho area.
Plan now to fulfil by 2017. Theo Heyliger promised to build a water tank at this area for Middle Region, Dawn Beach, Oyster Pond people that is good development. One of these things l keep begging the parliamentarians and ministers is to uplift the east side of the island and help get the Christian Kingdom Credit (CKC) union clients get back their money since 2010 CKC closed its doors with the remaining of the clients’ money. Up to this day the clients have not received any money not even from the Central Bank who they said was the trustee. Keep a meeting with the clients, l just don't know why St Maarten doesn’t have its own Central Bank?
William Marlin campaigning, approving everything. Why doesn’t Emile Lee have a master plan to beautify the Dawn Beach/ Oyster Pond area and see to that the cost of the project passes in 2017 budget.
I know Emile prays for Sarah Wescot-William. Oh my God, Sarah did her best to get Emile Lee in office; also William Marlin and Marcel Gumbs don't pray for each other may be still election or they might never pray for each other, but l pray for all of them especially our governor, we all must pray of him. He works very hard concerning Article 33.
Now St. Maarten has seven opposition in Parliament, each of them representing a day in the week: Franklian – Sundays, Leona – Mondays, Tamara – Tuesdays, Johan –Wednesdays, Lloyd – Thursdays, Cornelius – Fridays, Theo – Saturdays.
I am also calling on Frans Richardson, parliamentarians and minister for justice it is time St. Maarten has a small claims court; and help civil servants own their own home.
