And I bet he is not the only one, he just got caught.

I wonder if they have looked into any of the airport dealings closely?

Corruption in government is par for the course on SXM. The Dutch government that funds almost everything seems helpless to make much change. Amazing how tolerant they are. Theo is far from the only person that took advantage of his name and former political status. A lot more should have will go to jail.

It's not just isolated to St Maarten.

If you are still vacationing in Sxm is because there was a guy that had a vision about a place the size of a spit in the ocean., Mr. C.W...
When I went to University of Political Science the first thing they thaught us was that "there is no democracy without corruption, the degree of corruption marks the degree of democracy".
I do not think that we belong to countries with a clean sheet about corruption.

enzo--can't say that I have ever heard that statement about democracy and corruption and I do not agree with it.

And Sanfilip--It's Claude WATHEY.

Will let this go a little longer, but probably won't be long before it will be closed.

Enzo - where is the University of Political Science? A google search didn't turn up a school with that name?

Carol--I do not agree with that statement either. It sounds a lot like other garbage many universities are teaching our kids these days.
