Welcome to Curacao Legal PortalThere is a large legal community in the Dutch Caribbean. Especially Curacao houses all kinds of legal institutions, lawyers and associations. However, until 2007 there was no website with general information about the legal system of Curacao, its institutions and its practitioners. Curacao Legal Portal, an initiative supported by the Court of Justice, the CIFA (Curacao International Financial Services Association), a number of local law firms and the University of the Netherlands Antilles, aims to fill this void.

De voormalige minister-president van de Nederlandse Antillen, Don Martina, beschuldigt Nederland van het schenden van mensenrechten, omdat Nederland zou hebben gedreigd de schuldsanering stop te zetten als “NO” bij het op 15 mei 2009 te houden referendum zou winnen.
