~It’s an Island Thing, Dispose of in A Bin~
SINT MAARTEN (POND ISLAND) - The Minister of Public Housing, Spatial Planning, Environment & Infrastructure (Ministry of VROMI), Honorable Egbert J. Doran, announced the launch of the D.A.B. (Dispose in A Bin) campaign in efforts of encouraging environmental pride among citizens and visitors with strong anti-littering messages.
The campaign was prompted by previous events of the irresponsible use of public spaces, which urged the Ministry of VROMI to curve the disposal practices of the public. While Minister Doran encourages safe and responsible recreational activities, large volumes of litter are sometimes discarded in shared public spaces causing irreversible damage to our natural habitats. This type of behavior diminishes our tourism product.
