SMSPA Plans Celebration for International Day of the Elderly.

smspanotarization29092010Philipsburg:--- On July 15, 2010 twenty three seniors living in Sint Maarten decided to unite and establish an organization to improve the standard of living and the wellbeing of seniors and pensioners living on Sint Maarten. Two weeks later a general membership meeting was held on July 29, 2010 which adopted the Statutes of an association. This gave official birth to the Sint Maarten Seniors and Pensioners Association.
The main objectives of the association are to accomplish the full realization of all human rights and fundamental freedoms of all senior citizens on Sint Maarten being part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. These objectives were also agreed upon by governments of the world during the 2nd World Assembly on Aging in Madrid 2002. Also the achievement of secure ageing, which involves reaffirming the goal of eradicating poverty in old age, was an objective. Among the more than 160 governments that signed the International Action Plan on Aging was the government of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and in its delegation government representatives of the Netherlands Antilles. The Madrid International Action Plan on Aging signed had to be implemented before 2012.
We are now less than two years away from the 3rd World Assembly on Aging, which will be held in 2012, and the main question is: have the senior citizens on Sint Maarten realized all the human rights?
On Friday October 1st, 2010 on the occasion of International Day of Older persons the Home Away from Home Foundation has invited guest speakers from government of Sint Maarten and as keynote speaker drs Raymond Jessurun. Government officials will tell what they have done for the seniors. As the representative of the Sint Maarten Seniors and Pensioners Association Mr. Jessurun will share his views of the human rights situation of seniors living on Sint Maarten and the need for the Sint Maarten Seniors and Pensioners Association to organize the seniors on Sint Maarten. This will assist the seniors to achieve the full realization of all human rights and the eradication of poverty among them and their families.
