THE HAGUE--The Dutch Caribbean islands in general and St. Maarten in particular will have an ally in the Second Chamber of the Dutch Parliament with Jorien Wuite of the Democratic Party D66 who took the oath on Wednesday.
She is the first Member of the Second Chamber of St. Maarten descent. I fully realise that this is a real historic moment and it fills me with pride, Wuite told The Daily Herald after the installation of the new Second Chamber. She said the swearing in ceremony felt as an impressive event which was held under adapted circumstances due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
