Pisas, points out that the proposal known as COHO tramples on the pride of local professionals.<\/p>\n<p>Is Prime Minister Gilmar Pisas aware of what is happening among the population;\u00a0that is to say, that\u00a0\u00a0<strong>accepting COHO without a fight would be the same or even worse than voting for the previous government<\/strong>\u00a0?<\/p>\n<p>This question is asked by the parliamentarian\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Corine Djaoen-Genaro<\/strong>\u00a0, from the ruling coalition party PNP.\u00a0The critical attitude towards the consensus of the COHO Kingdom Law (Caribbean Reform and Development Agency) is very visible on the part of some parliamentarians in the coalition.\u00a0For this reason,\u00a0\u00a0<strong><em>Chronicles of the Caribbean<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0interviewed Mrs. Djaoen-Genaro on this matter.<\/p>\n<p>Djaoen-Genaro wonders if Prime Minister Pisas is aware that \u201c\u00a0<strong>the pride of our local professionals is being trampled on<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0because, when things go well this year, it is not this government and its local professionals, but the COHO professionals who will do the improve (and they&#8217;ll take credit for doing it) What&#8217;s the point of ruling like this?\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>The governments of\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Cura\u00e7ao, Aruba, Sint Maarten and the Netherlands<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0agreed a few weeks ago to present the proposal for the COHO Kingdom Law.\u00a0But the tone and content of the questions from the PNP faction, Cura\u00e7ao&#8217;s coalition partner, does not bode well for the parliamentary debate.<\/p>\n<p>However, the government of Prime Minister Pisas, with PNP leader\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Ruthmilda Larmonie-Cecilia<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0as deputy prime minister, will in principle have to uphold the COHO Kingdom Law.<\/p>\n<p>Larmonie-Cecilia ran in the March 2021 elections with\u00a0\u00a0<strong>the promise that COHO would be \u201crenegotiated\u201d with the Netherlands<\/strong>\u00a0.\u00a0The PNP parliamentarian, Djaoen-Genaro, launches her questions to the finance minister of the MFK coalition party,\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Javier Silvania<\/strong>\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs the minister aware that the majority of the population is of the opinion that\u00a0\u00a0<strong>there is not a great difference between COHO as it is now accepted and the previous COHO<\/strong>\u00a0?\u00a0What is different about the CHE (the originally proposed Caribbean Reform Entity), the COHO and the COHO 2.0?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In other words:\u00a0\u00a0<strong>it is not the opposition but the PNP itself that is questioning what the MFK\/PNP government<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0of Prime Minister Pisas and Larmonie-Cecilia has achieved in negotiations with the Netherlands over the last eight months.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>internal differences<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>\u201cHave local professionals been seriously listened to?\u201d is the question after which the names of the former prime minister of the Netherlands Antilles, Mrs.\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Maria Liberia-Peters<\/strong>\u00a0, the former president of the Central Bank,\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Emsley Tromp<\/strong>\u00a0, are mentioned, former minister and lawyer\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Suzanne Camelia-R\u00f6mer<\/strong>\u00a0, and lawyers\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Caryl Monte<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Rutsel Martha<\/strong>\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>Djaoen-Genaro questions the need for a reform body, pointing out the increase in tax revenue to the Finance Minister.\u00a0\u00abDoes the minister know that\u00a0\u00a0<strong>this government has collected more than 176 million guilders &#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0almost 98 million dollars in exchange &#8211; and that it is the local professionals of Cura\u00e7ao who have realized this amount, and not COHO?\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Silvania, who in his capacity as guardian of the treasury has announced the success of tax collection, is asked if he realizes that in January no less than 49 million in sales tax (OB) entered, \u00bb\u00a0<strong>the most highest ever recorded in January<\/strong>\u00a0\u201d (according to his own words on Facebook and in a press release).<\/p>\n<p>\u00abIs the minister aware that we\u00a0\u00a0<strong>can refinance the debt of 900 million<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0at a lower interest rate with the Netherlands itself, so that COHO does not have to be accepted?\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>The NPP MP is referring to the\u00a0\u00a0<strong>911 million guilders<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0that Cura\u00e7ao received in the pandemic years 2020 and 2021, in liquidity support from the Netherlands in the form of an interest-free (zero percent) loan.<\/p>\n<p>Normally, Cura\u00e7ao can borrow at only 2 percent interest, because this is the rate that applies to the Dutch State in relation.\u00a0Local interest rates are higher.<\/p>\n<p>How\u00a0<strong>much money will the Netherlands really invest in Cura\u00e7ao<\/strong>\u00a0?, is also a question from Djaoen-Genaro to the MFK minister, Silvania.\u00a0What\u00a0<strong>is the exact amount that the Netherlands will invest in the National Package<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0and what are the conditions that must be met in order to receive these funds for the implementation of the National Package?<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Step by Step<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The parliamentarian also wants to know\u00a0<strong>\u00a0if there is a guarantee that if \u201cwe\u201d comply with the conditions of the Netherlands, they in turn will also comply with \u201cus\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0.\u00a0For example, an \u201cescrow account\u201d will be opened, in which the Netherlands will deposit the funds to guarantee that if Cura\u00e7ao adheres to the established conditions, these funds will actually be available.<\/p>\n<p>In other words: how can we guarantee a\u00a0\u00a0<em>pas de deux<\/em>\u00a0?\u00a0The latter appears to be a reference to the times of the late former Prime Minister\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Miguel Pourier<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0 of the PAR party, who had made agreements with the Netherlands over the pas de deux: every step from Cura\u00e7ao (then the Netherlands Antilles) would be followed by a step from the side. Dutch;\u00a0however, from the perspective of political Willemstad, The Hague did not adhere to this (or additional requirements were set each time).<\/p>\n<p>Who decides whether or not Cura\u00e7ao has met the requirements;\u00a0qualify or not for the agreed funds?\u00a0\u201cCOHO cannot be the body that decides on this, because there are two members from the Netherlands on the board who will always vote in favor of the Netherlands,\u201d MP Djaoen-Genaro warned.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/cronicasdelcaribe.com\/politica\/aprobacion-de-la-agencia-de-reforma-del-caribe-genera-criticas-en-la-coalicion-de-gobierno-de-curazao\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Cr\u00f3nicas del Caribe<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/linea.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-42\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/linea.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"3\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/linea.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/linea-300x1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/linea-768x2.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La parlamentaria del PNP, Corine Djaoen-Genaro, cuyo partido PNP apoya al primer ministro Gilmar Pisas, se\u00f1ala que la propuesta conocida como COHO pisotea el orgullo de los profesionales locales. \u00bfEst\u00e1 consciente el primer ministro Gilmar Pisas de lo que est\u00e1 pasando entre la poblaci\u00f3n; es decir, que\u00a0aceptar a COHO sin pelear ser\u00eda igual o incluso [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":298,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"h5ap_radio_sources":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[5],"class_list":["post-294","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-curacao","tag-curazao"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=294"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=294"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=294"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ciudadgoticanews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=294"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
