WILLEMSTAD - According to Prime Minister Eugene Rhuggenaath, more can be done to make the people of Curaçao aware of the need to prepare for any natural disasters.

Although hurricanes are rare in Curaçao, that does not mean that we should not consider the possibility of being hit, the prime minister said when a so-called "Hurricane Hunter" arrived. That aircraft has come to Curaçao to raise awareness of taking preventive measures for a natural disaster.
