Philipsburg -- "The programme was truly historical in many respects where it concerns the environment," Stuart Johnson remarked. Leader of Government Commissioner Sarah Wescot-Williams was the guest featured on the radio programme, "Breakfast with de Robert". This was the first time a member of the Executive Council appeared as a guest on the show. The radio programme broadcasted live on 102.7FM instead of the usual 1300AM frequency which the show is known on. "Despite this change in radio frequencies for the show, it was a success. We have been able to ensure that Government is listening and was able to address many of the environmental issues affecting St. Maarten," Johnson said. According to the interview Johnson opened the guest list once again for members of the Executive and Island Council as well as Federal Government representatives to appear on the environmental radio show. "We must continue this national dialogue on the topic of the environment ensuring the protection of such gets the attention it so desperately deserves," Johnson added. Commissioner Sarah Wescot-Williams spoke on a number of issues which included the traffic congestion, nature ordinance, and what "Country St. Maarten" might look like, environmentally speaking among countless others. A poignant aspect of the show on Sunday morning was when Johnson asked Commissioner Wescot-Williams about the loss of her late-husband Louis Wescot and how she has still be coping with it. "I have been bombarded with calls and e-mails regarding the show, and it is evidence to the success of it. I am thankful for the ongoing support from the populous," Johnson concluded.
