St. Maarteners go out and vote in great numbers on September 26

Dear Editor,

My people, my people, come out to vote in great numbers vote for a better future for everyone. September 26, 2016, the voters are the boss to employ 15 candidates in this year’s Parliamentary election, and all government concern is just projects, and l quote why government often leaves the people demands behind.

My god, why our representative have not handled things the people are crying out for – the most our policemen, teachers, doctors, Rasta men, nurses, construction workers, housekeeping workers, civil servants and many more want to own their own home – this is a priority for the people, but parliamentarians must take a brave and strong stand for us to bring the motions to Parliament and get it solved.

The minimum wage is to low; what about our senior citizen needs; the high cost of living on the island of St Maarten; what about the six-month contract that has the voters living in poverty? What about justice for all? What about the small claims court for the small man?

It’s you, the politician representing the people must get this situation done right even every baby can see government is distancing themselves from matters that are best and priorities for the people and the voters.

Middle Region people just remember another government has let you all down by promising the people that buses will run through Middle Region, and on the rest of east side of the island. Another government let us down again. Leona Marlin, Member of Parliament of the UP Party said she has a master plan for buses to run Middle Region and the rest of the areas on the blessed island of St. Maarten, as soon as she was elected this will be one of her priority she will work on.

The leader of UP and MFK has some ways of Nelson Mandela and Rosie Douglas in them which the entire former Netherlands Antilles nations is proud of these both leaders they got a lot of creativity in them.
