New political elite grabbing land – Suriname MP

(De Ware Tijd) Political key figures are allegedly trying to appropriate considerable pieces of land.

Yesterday, Parliamentarian Andre Misiekaba (MC/NDP) warned in Parliament against this worrisome development. A few months ago, he had already warned President Desi Bouterse against people in his entourage that would not support the government vision but were purely looking after their own interests. He thinks this worrisome development, an example why politics is losing more and more trust. He urgently calls on the government to take action as he will otherwise be forced to make the files he has in his possession public. Misiekaba thinks transparency the only key to land policy.
