COVID-19 PLAY IN POLITICS AND IF COVID CRISIS IS DECLARED AND ACKNOWLEDGED; THEN SO WILL BE THE LAW OF EXCEPTION (LOEX)
During an interview Curacao Member of Parliament (MP) for the political party PAR; Mr. Stephen Walroud, declared that The Law of Exception (LOEX) is needed and must be treated because we are in a COVID crisis.
CURACAO IS IN A CRISIS ALREADY!
When asked what he thinks on the petition to postponed the meeting scheduled to treat The LOE for December 1st 2020, Walroud stated; "Well, we postponed the treatment of the law, one week already, and this law comes in to vote on, it is very, very important in the square that we are in the middle of a crisis; of a pandemic of COVID and, in reality; the entire judicial line. I just finish listening to Mr. Rony Cornelius at a different radio station, and the reality is there are different people that works in the arena of order, let us say; Public Order, to also combat the COVID crisis and the spreading of COVID in our Country, there is a need for this law! The one who do not want to understand this part, then, then person needs to stay without understanding! The one that is responsible do understand that primarily we must have a Law Of Emergency (LOEM) like other parts in the Kingdom; that has a Law Of Emergency. We are the only ones, here in Curacao; that does not have a Law of Emergency!"
THIS IS WHAT THE LAW CAN DO IF YOU FAIL IN THE SQAURE OF COVID
Stephen Walroud further explained; "The law is important for us to pass it so that we can maintain, the government can maintain the order of people's behavior, to keep it more under control. When you fail, "you will get some in this square"! When you fail, because there is a lot of failing when it is about the rules that we all spoke off with each other on keeping social distancing, wear mask here and there, and most of all to not agglomerate with a lot of people on the other!"
REFLECTIONS ON PAR-MP STEPHEN WALROUD'S STATEMENT
It appeared that part of Walroud's statement was in fact confirming that after they vote on the law with a vote of 11 in favor of the law, that the Curacao Government will immediately apply and use The LOEX in accordance to the example of PAR's MP Stephen Walroud's own statement: "We know that it was explained as well that, the judicial part in which the government are walking upon, until now it is a narrow base and very weak. When the police give fines for a wrong behavior on COVID, in reality you cannot do much. After passing this law and the situation of emergency is constituted here in Curacao, when you fail "you will get some" and that is the complete scenario."
Also; Walroud expressed; "this law will be use on what is about COVID in its lightest form!"
NO BLAME GAME
Stephen also stated; "Sometimes I hear certain politician expressing on a certain form, I start scratching behind my ear, and ask myself, why they want for COVID to keep spreading in Curacao? From whom they want the equipment (tool) that this for the government, Rhuggenaath cabinet, that they need to combat COVID with the people's behavior, they hold the equipment (tool) out of the hand of Rhuggenaath's cabinet. It is the same thing coming with propositions to not hold the meeting, postpone the meeting or come with all kind of change, create all kind of negative sentiments so that, let us say, show in the direction that need to vote against this law! If we vote against this law, we will be the only country in the Kingdom, with no emergency law ("noodwet"), and just right now, we need a emergency law! What is it that you want? For COVID to stay spreading around in Curacao and to then blame Rhuggenaath's cabinet? Well, we will not go in that direction!"
