WILLEMSTAD - The parties MFK and PNP plan to sign the coalition agreement around 3 pm on Friday. The chairman of the MFK, Sithree van Heydoorn, announced this on Wednesday.
The parties have always aimed to finalize a coalition agreement before the end of the month. According to Van Heydoorn, the parties are on track with the agreement. It is clear, however, that the new government cannot take office on May 11, as the parties had long intended. This has to do with the screening. According to Van Heydoorn, the screening of the new formateur Chester Peterson alone took almost two weeks. All candidate-ministers have yet to be screened.
A credible source disclosed that the list of candidate-ministers is as follows:
Prime Minister and General Affairs: Gilmar Pisas
Minister Finance: Javier Silvanie
Minister di Economic Development: Ramon Chong
Minister di Justice: Eduard Braam
Minister di Transport, Traffic and Spatial Planning: Charles Cooper
Minister di Government Policy, Planning and Service: Ornelio Kid Martina
Minister di Public Health, Environment and Nature: Dorothy Janga
Minister di Education, Sports and Science: Sithree van Heydoorn
Minister di Social Development, Labor and Welfare: Ruthmilda Larmonie
