Edson Hato to leave as representative of VNACS
WILLEMSTAD - Mr. drs. E. (Edson) Hato, MBA, has announced that he will continue his career elsewhere. As of the 1st of December 2024, he will stop as the representative of the Netherlands in Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten.
Mr. Hato:
“I have fulfilled the role of representative of the Netherlands in Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten with great passion. An educational and intensive period, in which I have worked for a fruitful cooperation between the four countries in the Kingdom. Although I can agree with the ultimate objective of this cooperation - a good relationship between the countries - I have a different view on the way in which we can achieve that goal. That is why I have decided in good consultation to return my assignment. In the coming period, I will focus on the next steps in my career. I thank everyone for the cooperation in the past period.”
Mr. Lapperre, Director-General of Kingdom Relations:
“First of all, I would like to thank Mr. Hato for his efforts. He has dedicated himself to the Kingdom with heart and soul. I naturally respect his decision, thank him for the pleasant cooperation and wish him all the best with the next step in his career.”
Mr. Hato was the Representative of the Netherlands in Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten from 1 September 2023, based in Willemstad.
