Editors Note to Readers and Letter writers.

After receiving a letter via the post we have decided to explain our readers and writers to this website that only cowards who are unsure of themselves do not sign their names on letters they send to us. Letters, and or statements that are not signed will not be published by us.
The letter that was received today clearly came from someone in the majority of the Territorial Council who are obviously ashamed of their performance and is looking for someone else to blame for their inadequacies and in-competencies. Picking on the media is just another mistake made by those who are not able to deliver that which they have promised to the promise land.
Saying that it would take time to repair the damage that was created by the former administration for the past 50 years is no excuse for the shame and disgrace the island and its people are put to because of incompetent people.
Speaking about the Organic Law and saying the people no longer has a choice is yet another mistake because a nation can do great things that egoistic politicians cannot achieve.
Our message to the person that has written the letter that is meant for the talk show hosts and promoters including "Billy Dee, Air Supply" as well as all internet and newspaper reporters is that you need not be ashamed of who you are. If you truly want to send out a message to the people of this island then we urge you to face the heat and come forward boldly with your message.

Well said. This so-called letter without signature is a proof that the people of SXM has been cheated by the so-called leaders . They are a shame to our ancestors.

This government is laughable and opposition isn't much better.

'Self' needs to be set aside. Party politics need to be done away with. Until the interest of St Martin and it's people is the number one priority we will continue to stew in this mess we St Martiners have created by selling votes for so many years.

If the people don't care why should the politicians? First and foremost St Martiners need to start thinking about this island and it's future as opposed to thinking about filling your own pockets. If the collective thinking changes then and only then then will the politicians step up to the plate or step aside. It's in our hands as a people to make the change. The politicians need to be held accountable and that accountability comes with votes.

Yes I am going to say it: Sxm ppl no longer have backbones. Yes I've said it!!!! now who are denial say I'm wrong. I mean I really want to see us stand up against the government, we do have to respect those in autority but they have to give an account of their actions and decisions, which has been poorly done with the current administration. AND what has been the reaction of the ppl?...... Now before commenting, think wisely of all which has happened and the role of sxm ppl.
