The law on littering for instance. If I leave a bag of garbage on the public road, you can call that littering. If I run my septic water on the public road, what do you call that??? It happens now for years and months on the Suckergarden road next to the Tropical Building, belonging to a Mr. Labega. This building houses a number of illegal’s, and has its septic tank water constantly run over the public road. Telephoned to the head of the department of hygiene, the headman, Tony Boyrard told me on the third call, that he had written a letter about the sewage water, without any results. I myself wrote in The Daily Herald two month ago, no result. I talked to several departments, to Public Works, where I got to speak to four people who all said that it was not their responsibility, and Mr. Buncamper who is responsible, was not available. There is a rumor that public works is going to make a sewage pipeline, in the far future. That is if the money from Holland does not disappear somewhere on the way. Untill that happens, the owner of the building is responsible. The law on littering should be enforced.
If nothing happens after this letter gets published, I will contact the prosecutor, to ask him why the law does not get enforced, applied. Gedogen? Does the government people allow Mr. Labega to pollute, because he is one of them? Tolerate it, as a dumptruck cost money and Mr. Labega does not want to pay? Or will he run a pipe under the road so that the sewage runs straight in the pond, under the road, instead of over it? I am sick and tired of the stink that sticks to my car every time I pass there. At Archroad the stinking sewage is being led by an ingenious system of expensive gutters under the road into the pond. Great, shovel the dirt under the carpet. Now it pollutes the pond, for all that live around it, and the rest. Public Works, money from Holland pays for something that all the house owners are responsible for, and they should pay. All the shacks on Arch Road torn down? What happened after that idea was launched some time ago? Nothing, KOOP built a drainage. That happened, not to solve the problem, but to hide it. Instead of running over, it now runs under the road. At least it does not stick to my car any more.
