probably Papiamento

The language is probably Papiamento which is the local language a mix of Spanish and Dutch.

Folk there often speak several languages fluently including English.

JUST SOME TRANSLATION FROM THE NEWSPAPER ARTICLE: NAMES ETC ARE MENTIONED IN THERE ... YOU CAN READ THEM IN THE ORIGINAL ARTICLE.



This news paper article quotes what valuemd members wrote about CMU. I do not have to translate this as you all know the story.

Further some excerpts from the article: (between brackets is my own between the lines interpretation)

The website is misleading:
-The campus tour on the website gives beautiful tropical pictures, but they are not from the Island of Curacao. … and the rest of the pictures say nothing about CMU (just general pictures).
- They suggest that the main campus is the whole WTC-complex and next to most of the shopping malls and fast-food restaurants of the island (inhabitants of Curacao know that the malls and fast-food restaurants are NOT there, just some hotels)


“CMU is registered at the chamber of commerce as a BV (business) As directors CMU has Saida V. and Gregory M.. The telephone numbers are not working and the voicemail system is deactivated. The phone number of the dean belongs to a law firm and this firm never heard about this dean. The whole staff of CMU has mobile Digicel numbers and only the fax number is a landline. Aside of the BV there is also a foundation CMU with RL as chairman, V. as a secretary and M. as the treasurer.”

The language of the AMIGOE is Dutch.

There was other article in Amigoe before http://www.valuemd.com/caribbean-med...tml#post668214

Don’t think that ValueMD got that famous in Curacao. It’s just St. Martinus people are very interested to bash CMU cause their property was seized a week ago by one of banks on the island.

Maybe makumba can scan the article about St. Martinus property being seized.

Hi All,

Article says that St.Martinus is looking for investors. What's wrong with this?
