One side

and

the other

The Judge is said to be making a decision today. All I know is that all of this stuff is hurting the airport reconstruction, which should be THE most important priority for country Sint Maarten.

I think that the decision the Judge will make is that for the two parties come to agreement and for Mr. Mingo to come back to work , however the Board will not what to do that hence they would have to pay him out for his contract.

OK, so I wonder what that means, as far as getting the reconstruction going?

Well since little or nothing happened under him previously, I would expect that to continue.

JD you don't live here . This was politically done by the Chairman of the Board of the Airport . Mr. Brian Mingo went to Europe and signed off on both of the big loans one with Europe , plus a grant and cleaned the whole building . And the PM will get the Chairman removed . I live here .

I beg your pardon but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what's going on. We have our own politics back home that the out side world looks at and has educated opinions of too. All different opinions and should be respected whether right or wrong in others eyes.

Lesley--I really don't care about the politics. I want the airport to be fixed, as do the rest of us visitors. From OUR perspective, there has been little to nothing done to repair the airport, in almost four years. Please tell us that the airport reconstruction is going to proceed now and will get done...

And Knops says there will be no more money for SXM until the airport situation is resolved.

And while you do not live in the US, you sure like to wade into the politics of the US.
