One watermelon almost 30 guilders (17 dollars)

We took sides for Guaido. We involved ourselves with Venezuela. They now closed the borders. Look at the consequences now for Curaçao. They don’t feel it in the Netherlands. Our Prime Minister followed instructions and the desire of the Netherlands and now it’s the people of Curaçao who are suffering from the consequences.

My people follow my advice. Leave these watermelons, don’t buy them. Let them rot. Starting today I will advise people what to do. Let’s unite as a people. Just leave these expensive fruits to rot. By doing this the prices will go down again. The power is in your hands. Let’s exercise this power. Remember that only we can save ourselves.

Join me in this fight. We as people cannot accept this abuse. Together we will conquer this abuse.
