As Minister of Public Health, Social Development and Labour for the past three years and three months,I have been part of the stability in government with the Democratic Party. I’ve had a wonderful opportunity to work with a great team and ministry – to talk with many residents of St. Maarten from every walk of life about the future direction of our great country.
It has been an invaluable experience, and I hope I have made my contribution to the health, social and labor reform of St. Maartens’ future. As I have turned 45 years on Sunday June 8, 2014 I had the time to reflect, but it is time now for me and my family, friends and supporters to carefully consider the wishes and interest of the people of St. Maarten and explore what is best for us to do for the upcoming 2014 elections.
