Analyzing Governance Cases in the Antilliaans Dagblad Using the Plantation as a Theoretical Lens
July 20, 2024
Let's examine the governance cases in the Antilliaans Dagblad of July 19, 2024, using the plantation model as a theoretical framework (Antiliaans Dagblad, 2024). This analysis will test the validity of the plantation.
The main article is titled “Zorgen over roadmap; Cft trekt aandacht voltallige ministerraad kabinet-Pisas” (Concerns about the roadmap; Cft draws attention of the entire ministerial council of the Pisas cabinet). In this case, The Hague and the Cft represent the overseers (Shon) on the plantation, while Willemstad is the subtly sabotaging slave. Willemstad does not realize that this self-destructive behavior harms itself.
“Black-out juridisch staartje: MEO-minister sluit rechtsgang niet uit na forensisch rapport” (Black-out legal aftermath: MEO minister does not rule out legal action after forensic report). Here, the MEO minister acts as the overseer who does not rule out legal action against the former director and possibly others. He wants to assert who is in charge, especially if there are indications of sabotage.
“Waarnemer Veterinaire Dienst gelijk; Regering onvoldoende gemotiveerd waarom functie ingetrokken” (Observer Veterinary Service correct; Government insufficiently motivated as to why position was withdrawn). The government believes there was sabotage and has sidelined the top management. As a necessary consequence, the government accepts legal cases.
“Ministers en Staten ‘geen grip’; Enquêtecie: 9 ministers en 10 Staten onvoldoende ingrepen” (Ministers and Parliament ‘no control’; Inquiry: 9 ministers and 10 MPs insufficient interventions). “HNO moest koste wat het kost af” (HNO had to go through at all costs). The plantation was completely unmanageable. The government could not establish order, leading to significant issues.
“Emsley Tromp in hoger beroep; houding OM ‘niet begrijpelijk en onzuiver’ genoemd” (Emsley Tromp in appeal; attitude of Public Prosecution Service called 'incomprehensible and impure'). This disgraced overseer is being prosecuted by his superiors to set an example.
“Mysterieus graafwerk aan zee; Grondeigenaar en diens plannen alsnog onbekend” (Mysterious digging at sea; Landowner and his plans still unknown). Here, it appears that the landowner has the blessing of the overseer and disregards everyone else.
“Rennox Calmes ‘zelfverzekerd’” (Rennox Calmes ‘self-assured’). This case concerns how MP Calmes is dealt with because he causes too much unrest on the plantation.
“Martina kandidaat-voorzitter FFK; Benaderd door vijf voetbalclubs” (Martina candidate-chairman FFK; Approached by five football clubs). Now that this CEO seems unable to save the CMC and will not renew his contract, he is asked to bring order to the completely disorganized football plantation—a plantation ruined by sabotage and self-destruction, with no awareness that they are the organization's bosses.
Who still wants to lead on this island? It seems like a guarantee for prosecution and years of legal battles. Your reputation is at stake, and you must defend yourself for years. Only an underqualified candidate who cannot resist the high salaries would take the job. The Netherlands does not understand that the government does not see this plantation as theirs (ownership); they see it as belonging to the Netherlands and, therefore, sabotage it.
We will address these issues in our masterclass 19 & 20 September 2024. Register: www.universityofgovernance.com.
