Good answer to Cornelius de Weever.

Former Minister of Health, now MP de Weever will constantly try to "show up" present VSA Minister Emil Lee. After last election results were in, Cornelius weaseled his way around town, doing everything in his power to keep Mr. Lee from being the designated DP Representative in Parliament, or from being appointed to a Ministerial post. This, including him trying to get a family member appointed to Minister, then using feeble excuses to cross the aisle (jumping ship) and finally double crossing party leader Sarah Wescott-Williams ("double" literally, as he did it twice in less than 30 days). Now he plagiarizes stuff on the Internet to try and make Minister Lee look bad, at the expense of all the Civil Servants in the Public Health Department. I guess he probably even hoped Emil would rush out to buy an expensive mobile Zika-Virus-carrying-mosquito fumigation vehicle that would have to get here before the upcoming September election, used once and then parked in the grass, just like the US $400,000 mobile health clinic he, de Weever, rushed to order in before the 2014 election, for no other reason than a "photo-op".

Minister Lee, if I were a betting man, my bet would be on you making serious positive strides in our Country's health care during the very short present tenure you have signed up for. And knowing you, this will not be for cheap photo ops, nor for personal gain, but because, unlike the above mentioned "born-here" former Minister-now-MP, your heart is in the right place when it comes to doing what is in the benefit of the citizens and other residents of St. Maarten.
