The SER has three main goals for Sint Maarten social-economic policy:
- To promote balanced and sustainable economic growth;
- To promote full employment;
- To promote a fair income distribution.
The SER has nine members. It consists of three sections, which each have three members in the council. These sections are trade unions, employers' organizations and government appointed members.
With great relief I absorbed the news that the SER finally has been established on Sint Maarten and I will closely follow the subjects discussed within, and the advices coming from the SER. I am eager to see how serious government is going to take this council.
Three most urgent topics to be discussed according to me:
- Cost of living
- Tax reform
- Investment climate
What do you think should be the priority for the SER right now?
Have a great day,
Sjaoel "Shooz" Richardson
