In Sint Maarten, when is enough litigation enough? Alegria is not a "world of happiness"; it is a world of lawsuits.

Concrete lessons to be learned from the Greek situation

Dear Editor,

I read the recent letter submitted by five persons attached, in one way or another, to University of St. Maarten on “Why Greece should matter to St. Maarten”.

I hope to add to what the team led by Dr. Francio Guadeloupe wrote, because I agree with much of what is in that letter.
