TAXAND Curacao Files Complaint against Judith Brewster --- Allegation of Defrauding TAXAND of Naf 100,000.00.

Philipsburg:--- The Chief Prosecutor of Curacao Heiko de Jong confirmed to SMN News on Wednesday morning that his office is busy conducting an investigation based on a complaint filed by TAXAND. De Jong said that he is not prepared to divulge information on the ongoing investigation which involves the countries Curacao and St. Maarten.

SMN News has been reliably informed that Judith Brewster took Naf. 100,000.00 in bank overdrafts for TAXAND and she allegedly embezzled a large portion of the monies which she used on personal matters for herself.

SMN News questioned the Minister of Finance Roland Tuitt on the SOAB investigation he had conducted on the contract the former Minister of Finance granted to Judith Brewster (TAXAND). Minister Tuitt said he does have that report in his possession but because he was tied up these past weeks trying to balance the 2013 budget he did not have sufficient time to deal with the TAXAND report. The Finance Minister promised some months ago that he will publish that report after the Council of Ministers takes a decision on its way forward in handling the matter. The Finance Minister promised to divulge more information on the TAXAND investigation next Wednesday at the Council of Ministers' weekly press briefing.

When SMN News asked the Minister of Finance of Country St. Maarten if he was aware that TAXAND had filed a complaint against Judith Brewster, the Minister admitted that he knew of the investigation that involves both countries but he would allow the Prosecutor's Office in Curacao to do their job and comment when the investigation is completed and the outcome is made available to him.

Minister Tuitt also confirmed that Ms. Brewster is no longer working for Country St. Maarten since he took office because he sent her an official letter requesting information regarding the work she was conducting for St. Maarten and Ms. Brewster never replied to the letter therefore the Government of St. Maarten terminated the contract she had with the UP/DP Government. Tuitt said Ms. Brewster was granted a contract by the former Minister of Finance Hiro Shigemoto which amounted to Naf. 17,500 monthly.

    There is people tht eat bread and water, and people are pushed to fu$king thief, and be rewarded, and SVB and tax office
    puts adds in the news paper that they will sell people things
    to get money.

    NO, NO, NO,
    @Nigeria
    We are worst than Nigeria, they thief on black and white, and send a FOOL further.
    Here they do it with the sun shining, and use vaseline to poke it down people throats.

    Why hasn't SMN-News done an article on Frans admitting to giving orders for the sand to be placed for the race track and cricket stadium.

    At the end of the day, no matter who give what instructions, the Managing Director of any company is 100% personnally responsible for that company.

    Please ask the MinFin for a complete list of all highly-paid contracted consultants, employed by government in different sectors, in normal operational functions,indicating the 25% extra on their salary and all other extra benefits like free car free housing, free cellular phone, free weekly travel to their country of origen, and on top of that, the right to continue extending their advisory services and consultancy to third parties. That is how this lady consultant, who was working as an advisor in the former MinFin's cabinet to reform the tax system, brought in Taxand and landed herself a even more lucrative partnership in Taxand, in the meanwhile burdening the cashstrapped government with an expensive nonsensical contract. In the literature about the many forms of corruption this pattern is called:"feather bedding". Keep asking the right questions and publish without being selective!

    You think these people easy. They does really do as they please with our TAX money. Consultants from all over. Our highest man in immigration from suriname. Another loor on our hand. Nobody from the antilles could handle these jobs. Consultants being paid 500 euros a day with all ammenities. That is how this government roll. Nothing is good enough for us and it got worst after 101010. We aint ready yet.kadaster out of our hands, domein beheer out of our hands. I think somebody set us up to fail. Now we aint gonna just fail, they here to take over the whole country. All of those ministers responsible are not on a list, so they dont give a hoot.

    Yes government civil servants not only contracted persons get more than 18000,- monthly and this has been going on for years not after 101010. Check out the salaries of deptment heads and SGS. You will get a heart attack when you know what they are earning monthly. Also the new NA/DP government so-called advisors. Entire family of the advisor to Marlin (Kendall) are working now for government. He advisor to Marlin, his brother with a police record as driver(did time in prson for drugs at the airport) to Marlin. Then his sister that was fired before by government now some kind of policy worker at one of the other ministers office. And who knows what kind of family thing is going on. I heard from the school children,WM through Silveria Jacobs will soon be appointing his wife in one of the top jobs at Education. Mind you WM wife has been on sickleave and still is on sickleave for about 4 years now. Fairness is all I can say about this NA government.

    They are holier than the Pope that I want to fall over with laughter. Talk about fixing NA supporters to certain functions all over government :lol: :lol: :lol: Some persons are on sickleave at thier original working place within goverrnment but shows up at ministers offices to carry out duties. Who fooling who? When these ministers do not get their wishes through the normal way, they just draw up ministerial decisions and say what they say is higher than an advice that has to go through the governor be it negative of positive. This government of NA is firing left and right through ministrial desicions. Talk about court cases coming just now for them, which they will loose. Probably they are also higher than the decisions of the court. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    This is OLD news. What I want to hear is that her sister Ruth Boirard Brewster who was Hiro's a**istant and the one who's idea it was to involve her sister in a money grabbing scam where St. Maarten ended up with the sh..tty end of the stick, I want to hear that she be held responsible and both her and Hiro pay back the people's tax money. Bunch of damn crooks!

    Government always breaking contacts , many civil servants always taking Government to court, government always
    travelling. Govern always placing their own. Is this something new. P L E A S E.

  • @ boy oh boy
    avatar

    You are so dumb! You need to get the facts rather than talk sh8. Nice to sit behind a computer and write crap. Challenge: put it in the newspapers, be specific and write your name to it.

    Fact: Kendall sister was only fired by Maria Buncamper to get back at Kendall who used to pong her on his radio show. People who had to testify in her defense did not do so after they were threatened. Politricks! But Karma is a **tch and revenge is sweet. Where is Maria today? Kendall sister has been working for several years already. That is how much you know.

    Keep talking sh8 about people when you don't know their business. It will catch up with you one day, too. Now go and try to get a life, you hateful creature.
    The ones you are hating on are happy. The same obviously can't be said of you!

  • My two cents!
    avatar

    @ gla** house 2. Do you think Laville should pay back the $400,000.00 that he got for Tempo. Or all the contracts that are being given to NA supporters for big bucks, should that money be return to offset the taxes owed by the poor man. Bibi can you tell me who the government of sxm is paying more than $400,000.00. Maybe Tuit can tell the people who we are paying in Europe, USA, etc. :eek:

    This is so sad, so very very sad.

    It is unbelievable.
    Civil servants making over 20.000.00 a month, and then
    they want to tell you they have no money.

    By the time Mr Tuitt finish winking and laughing with you
    he will push it in.
    7% TOT.

    Here that your Xmas and New Years gift, and when the fools
    finish supporting all the shows now, they won't have cent to buy foof.

    You hear all surinamers, bringing in drugs, it was on the news this morning.

    Apparently all big positions St.Maarten DUMMIES
    CAN'T FILL, because they all fill with retirees, and foreigners.

    @REALLY
    You are making ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE AT ALL to even suggest that ALL NEWS MEDIA MUST BE CLOSED DOWN.

    Now smarty, what do you think the outcome would be if there were NO MEDIA OUTLETS?

    This was a topic given during exams. I wonder what intelligent arguments you would provide for closing down all media houses. I wonder if you really understand what media houses are and what they do.

    I must say that you are quite an intelligent person!!!

    The big thing is of course that while Judith Brewster was raking in all these government funds payments to her were made by her sister Ruth Boyrard-Brewster who at that time worked in the SXM Finance department. Do I smell corruption?

  • Zara Black
    avatar

    I remember reading that the original contract with SXM was fl. 17.500 per month but that Brewster charged as much as fl. 48.000,- per month! Happy to hear that the public prosecutor is investigating the Brewster sisters. And indeed if corruption is present; lock them up and throw away the key.

    To SMN News team:
    Do you know who this person Peter Muller really is? And who is TAXAND Curacao? Peter has been kicked out of Taxand International. Peter is not a legal entity of Taxand Curacao. And can not act as Taxand Curacao.
    Peter is currently under investigation by the OM regarding using physical aggression against J. Brewster. Including using force to break in into Brewster office in Curacao. Please asked about this to mr. de Jong. This happened 3 weeks ago. This guy is something like "doorgedraaid".
    My company dealing with forensics matters is also working on child molester activities and Brewster family harrasment by peter and his wife.

    Every time something happens we pull other persons into the game of politicking. That William Marlin has employed the whole family Dupersoy/La Paix is his good right politically as they support him /NA. What is wrong do is that that same family is making a mockery out of the system by cutting deals left and right and pretend to be holier than thou. Leroy La Paix is hauling the sand (no doubts about that). Kendall is instructing Public Works who gets the work and who doesn't and he's always crying foul about favoritism. Boy oh Boy I can't wait to hear him on a show so I can confront him with this message. The part of his sister being fired wasn't by Maria but by the government. Maria was the commissioner in charge of Personnel affairs where she worked and she refused to do work and she got fired. She lost her case in court. Karma is indeed a **tch and in the end we'll all see who got karma and who didn't. Don't let little setbacks blind anyone.

    The part that William is going to employ his wife in the education department belongs like Frans Richardson new slogan is "belongs to the old coalition agreement of 2009' so its long overdue. That the good lady is ill isn't relevant as you can be ill in government for over 10 years and still don't get fired. I saw such a case recently in government. I heard they finally fired on of those non workers Avril Riley and now she out for William Marlin and Buncamper. So you see it never good no matter how you turn it. If it works William kudos to you as most of us here don't really give a shit anyway.

    Summary of Mr. Peter Muller's famous position paper:
    1. JB receives payments that are intended for Taxand Curacao but are kept by
    her;
    2. The amounts received by B & B with respect to the St. Maarten Project have not been
    disclosed by us that B & B has a contract for ANG 15,750,--, the amount however was set at ANG 17,500 (she billed much more);
    3. Enormous amounts of private expenses were carried by Taxand Curacao. Jewelry paid by Taxand, vacationing in Florida, a USD 1,100 pedigree dog, Also JB and her two daughters spent
    their weekends mostly in 4 star hotels on Curacao all at the expense of Taxand Curacao.
    4. B & B kept servicing at least 25 clients for her own account, directly against the agreements made that stipulated that both partner would contribute their entire client portfolios;
    5. Cash funds that clients handed to JB for payment of taxes and social premiums embezzled by JB
