Philipsburg: --- Daniel Evans the St. Maarten representative giving the one-week training on human smuggling and the use of fraudulent documents said the training is progressing well thus far. Evans said the training, which began on July 24 thru July 29, is a follow up training on the request of the Minister of Justice David Dick.
He said the first part of the training took place in Curacao almost two years ago and the Immigration, Customs Enforcement was more than happy to hold a follow up on the first program. So far, there are about 120 officers from ten islands participating in the program to which they are receiving certificates.
