Fake products in Suriname

 

 

    

 

FAKE in Suriname

 

It's "booming business" for the "new Chinese" in Suriname. With the new Chinese I mean the Chinese people that came to Suriname just a few years ago,mostly to start a small business. Chinese people were always part of our multicultural country,but there are lots of new immigrants from China. Unfortunately ,ost of the shops they open are filled with fake products, openly sold. D & G, Prada, Louis Vutton, you can not think of it, or it is copied and sold.  We were able to film in the Maagdenstraat  a  store that exclusively sells fake products. In the background, "Confessions" by Usher .Of course this music is from a bootleg CD . I am sure these folks has a lot to confess. There is a copyright association in Suriname named "SASUR" but they have no leg to stand on. Because although this association is authorized by the government, and recognized by the international copyright agency,and they are  the only legitimate Suriname copyright organization, there is nothing they can do against the media bosses, who themselves have formed an association to save themselves. This is because they have broadcasted music illegally for years without paying a penny. The media bosses  complain that they would have to close their companies if they should  pay the fee SASUR demands. (Woes them !i) The government and some parliamentarians support this group, because "oh man the poor guys are doing the best they can". In that respect,  Suriname is a Wild West "I am the last to want to protect the big manufacturing companies, but when a Surinamese  makes an original product and put it on the market, and that product would be counterfeited and sold, we would get a taste of our own medicine. Surinamese governmental authority should take strict action against retailers who violate intellectual property or persons of any third party who just makes copies of that product to sell. But it simply does not happen!  It's just theft. Furthermore, Suriname is member of the WIPO (World Property Organization) The brand  products are just a tip of the iceberg, because everyone knows you can get the latest movies, which are often not even officially on video already available, at the corner store in Suriname. Don’t get me started about the illegal copying and selling of music, because that is the most normal thing in Suriname.

Surinaamse verkiezingen

Suriname Stemt, is organized by critical Surinamese who don't want to withdraw their hands out of politics. And we want to encourage everyone not to also, in order to contribute to the well being of Suriname and the Surinamese. We try to influence  the political tide  to change, There are thoughtful and mature Surinamese needed. Surinamese who no longer will be held back by the politics of most parties, based on ethnicity and other forms of the old divide and rule policies. Surinamese who no longer take it,that  their leaders only share the power among themselves, without worrying about what the people want and need, forgetting that the people voted for them with the mission to govern the country well.

However, there may be many errors but we can not ignore what has gone well, and that is certainly the case with our economy. Suriname is one of the few countries where the impact of global recession is hardly felt. On the contrary, our economy still has a growth of over 5%.

Granted, it is partly a result of our vast mineral resources, but also of the stringent monetary policy in recent years. That is why we at this site will raise various issues, sometimes good, sometimes bad, sometimes very bad. Our scales often turn on to bad, because what's bad is directly or indirectly a result of failed policy. Ultimately it all has to do with politics. . But a warning is in place , because change is bringing a process, a change of the total community. Think of things like sexual abuse of children, incest, irresponsible driving in traffic: just some hot topics to be addressed .

"We therefore encourage to read, to think, to talk and write. Not only your comments in our own journalists delivered items, but also your own critical and civilized (please) contributions are welcome.

Denmarks shameful festivity

I wonder why I never heard of this festivity before,if it wasn't for my cousin August,who sent me these pictures of the Yearly Masacre of Dolfins by the Danish
on the Feroe Island. Every year the Danish litarely slaughter Dolphins the Calderons
is still taking place and if you look at the pictures you won't believe your eyes.
This really has to stop. Why doesn't CNN tells us about this? This so called feest for young Danish men to show that they are adults now.
Shame on the Danish!
