The core of his vision was the slogan "High Margin, Low Volume", so growth through top tourism. In addition, it is necessary for Islanders to also benefit from the growing economy. He calls everyone who owns land or a kunuku to participate in this project and become a shareholder. When projects are started, the value of the land rises immediately and the owner benefits from his contribution. Everyone on the island should benefit from the benefits and not just the happy few! It is a social, humanitarian and commercial project. Together they want to make Bonaire the ultimate tropical paradise for both local people and tourists in the top segment. We call this the Caribbean Dream!
