The Prime Minister, on behalf of the government and people of Sint Maarten congratulates the RRR Party and its leader, Alain Richardson with the overwhelming mandate given them by the people of Saint Martin at the polls on March 25, 2012.
The people of Saint Martin deserve to be congratulated as well on the manner they went about exercising their constitutional right of electing their government, the Prime Minister said on Sunday evening as the results became clear that the RRR was in the lead.
The Prime Minister further added that elections are exactly that, a process to democratically elect our representatives and once that is done, it is incumbent on politicians and citizens to work together in the benefit of all people.
"On behalf of the government of Sint Maarten, I look forward to continuing the dialogue and cooperation with the government of the northern side of our island to the benefit of all inhabitants and the island we share," Prime Minister Hon. Sarah Wescot-Williams, said on Sunday.
