JEK: Thanks for the personal address, however it shouldn't be directed at one forum member when several people are expressing opinions. Targeting is not moderating. You should know better.
"Opinions", however, is what makes sharing interesting, much more than copying, pasting, Google translating press articles, particularly when these articles come from unofficial sources and/or the translation is not good. This is tiring, yet common.
I agree with the fact that we should listen to official announcements made by the local SBH and SXM authorities including :
Collectivité de Saint Barthélemy
Préfecture de Saint Martin and Saint Barthélemy
Gouvernement français
Sint Maarten Government
Only the above authorities will confirm how and when the borders will open. The rest is speculation.
Goodnight.
