KRALENDIJK – The new leader of the Dutch ‘Pirate Party/De Groenen, Mark van Treuren, along with board member Danny Werner, will be visiting Bonaire from August 27th to September 1st, 2023.

The purpose of the visit is not only to introduce the new leader, but also to show engagement with the local community and initiate a dialogue with various organizations dedicated to the well-being of Bonaire.
