Dear Editor,
My friends the Dutch, SXM Governor, Ombudsman, Theo, Frans, Silveria Jacob, Sarah, Cornelius, Emil Lee and the Chief Of Police, we the public is calling on you all to help St Maarten have a small claims court.
And also we the people of St Maarten is pleading to you all from our heart and soul, give the law and power to St Maarten policemen to pick up money from bad paymasters to pay whoever they owe. There are many reports the police receiving from the public such someone owes them and they need the police assistance.
Both the police and the Detectives of St. Maarten keep saying the law are not given to them to go picking money from these wicked bad paymasters.
Now l quote (read my lips) St. Maarten has over 100 nationalities both citizen of Caricom and citizen the United Nations and elsewhere. We talk about Recovery 24/7. Why Frans Richardson did not put a law for police to pick up money from bad paymasters? And let St Maarten have its small claims court?
So when the construction poor man don’t get pay after working in the burning sun where he must go?
Police often tell the people get a lawyer. This not right. Before you sit down to talk to a lawyer you have to pay consultation fees. Time case call constructor leave the Island with the money (and they all know this).
It is time those in authority come together as one and get off these old laws from the table. You all got the public supports to 24/7.
