PHILIPSBURG--The Management Team of the Police Force of St. Maarten, St. Eustatius and Saba KPSSS expressed appreciation for all police officers in the form of a reception at the Philipsburg police station last week Friday.

This gathering was organised to express gratitude to the officers for their relentless efforts under challenging circumstances. Both First Acting Lt. Governor Reynold Groeneveldt and Second Acting Lt. Governor Rachnilda Lynch-Arduin were on hand at this event and expressed gratitude and encouragement to the officers.

Police Chief Commissioner Peter de Witte was not in attendance, as he was off-island on official business. He was represented by Police Acting Chief Commissioner Carl John. The officers were treated with refreshments after the brief speeches.
