memorial that was unveiled on 1 July in Hoofddorp The official abolition of slavery was proclaimed 155 years ago on 1 July 1863 On Sunday 1 July 2018 the national remembrance of the Netherlands’ slavery past took place the national Slavery Remembrance Day is still not an official national remembrance day offered an expression of regret for the slavery past on behalf of the government have previously asked for an official apology from the Dutch government many people hope that the government will apologise offering an apology is so important that it should come from the head of state and not a minister It’s something that people are waiting for Karwan: ‘1 July is starting to become part of our collective memory and is included much more in our education It’s becoming part of the national identity and our self-image for communities that wish to join with each other in remembrance of slavery ‘I was recently at the unveiling of a slavery memorial in Hoofddorp This makes it the fourth city with a memorial In Hoofddorp too there are people who are descendants of the enslaved The municipality of Haarlemmermeer doesn’t have a direct link with the slavery past but the executive councillor spoke about how when a lot of money was being put into building dykes to drain the land of Haarlemmermeer the abolition of slavery was considerably delayed for financial reasons This says a lot about the attitude in those times.’ ‘We’re still not aware enough of how the colonial past continues to have effects in the present It would be good to talk about this more in Dutch education It would have to be done on a structural basis because then you can also explain the different facets of this history It’s important to understand why there are still Caribbean parts of the Kingdom and that people from Suriname aren’t newcomers but have been part of Dutch history for a very long time This can give a clearer understanding of why the Netherlands is as it is today and how the past still has effects in the present.’ ‘The memorials and remembrances that are now organised in many cities are an important aspect of the growing awareness of the colonial roots of the present day so I felt highly honoured when Haarlemmermeer municipal council asked me to help with developing their memorial: both the text on the memorial itself and the accompanying text on a stone next to the memorial The memorial itself bears a quotation from its initiator Elaine Veldema: “What happened then is not yet over” (Wat gebeurd is ‘The council didn’t want it to be an exclusively Suriname-Netherlands memorial so for the memorial itself I chose to include several abolition dates: first the slave trade and finally in 1863 in Suriname and on the Caribbean islands ‘For the accompanying text it was a challenge to give a nuanced explanation in just a few words which does justice to the extreme violence the historical context and the present-day relevance “Descendants of the enslaved are to be found in all parts of the Netherlands when international law and human rights did not exist people were dragged violently into Dutch history what followed was often a short and traumatic life Since the abolition of slavery was proclaimed worldwide The abolition of slavery is one of the fundamental principles of human rights there are still people who live in modern slavery.”’ you see that people who came out of slavery at that time found it extremely important to obtain a piece of land Wherever it might be: part of a former plantation or in the city having a piece of land meant that as free people they could start to become attached to a new place Owning land and being able to pass it on to subsequent generations was incredibly important for those people and land ownership in Suriname is hopelessly fragmented People from Suriname often complain about the inheritance problems with dividing estates and the family arguments that these cause all those land ownership leftovers are the link between themselves and the beginning of their ancestors’ emancipation My book on this, Eigendomsstrijd (Ownership Conflict) Paths through slavery: urban slave agency and empowerment in Suriname The public transport systems in Dutch cities are at risk of stagnating or deteriorating due to decisions by the national government to either cancel or block funding for improvement projects, said labor union FNV Spoor and public transport passenger association Rover in interviews with AD The union said it demonstrated "short-term thinking" by national politicians who only want to approve projects that can be completed quickly and which will not cost them voter support over time “There is a real need to invest in a robust reliable and fine-meshed public transport network But because investments in public transport will only become visible in ten years they may be afraid that it will cost votes now," said Henri Janssen from FNV Spoor He advocates for a multi-year long-term vision to bolster the local networks the caretaker Cabinet withdrew the 1.7 billion euros it pledged to help fund the extension of the Noord-Zuid metro line The route currently runs between the Buikslotermeer neighborhood in Amsterdam-Noord to Station Zuid in the city's financial district Amsterdam wants to extend the metro line to Schiphol Airport and Hoofddorp There is also local political support to extend the route in the opposite direction to Zaandam and Purmerend the City Council dropped plans to construct another metro tunnel The city went for the bridge because of a belief they would miss out on hundreds os millions of euros of funding from the national government Both Amsterdam and Rotterdam metro projects would have paid off in the long-run “The government is slowing down municipalities “There really needs to be a national vision on mobility We now have to make a plan for the coming decades Amsterdam said it will drop its metro extension and the Zuidasdok project if the national government does withdraw the 1.7 billion euros “It is time for the government to take a much more integrated look at transporting people,” said Rover director Freek Bos “If we want to be able to take everyone where they want to be the roadways will remain clogged by traffic jams and the municipalities will be hamstrung and unable to develop their local public transport networks “You can see it in the traffic jams in cities but also offer good public transport,” said Janssen “That is much more attractive for society than going bumper to bumper through the city.” you have a beach tent - recovery: Beach House - in Hoofddorp That is indeed not near the sea but near a lake That's nothing new: Papa's Beach House has been around since 1989 (!) But we've only just picked up the love for Papa here - little did we know making the beach bar near Amsterdam a new favorite At the IJweg in Hoofddorp you can have a really relaxing lunch by the water And that's exactly what a beautiful (late) summer day requires if you ask us and an extra thumbs up for the friendly service – a relief There are plenty of tasty (and also semi-family) on the menu for the small stuff and if it is really hot we can cool off in the water (bring your swimming armbands!) while you enjoy the food from the terrace with your feet in the sand On the 'other side' of Hoofddorp – Papa's Beach attracts one thing Nice to hang out and a perfect place to have a drink in the evening when the heat is still in the air and it is too early to dive into your much too warm nest And so you don't want to go to the overly busy beaches The Cabinet laid out plans for 7.5 billion euros in infrastructure spending that includes 4 billion euros to improve rail service The majority of this money will be spent in the Randstad region and Noord-Brabant according to plans that the Cabinet sent to the Tweede Kamer on Monday Included in the project is the money needed to extend the Noord/Zuidlijn a metro line running from Amsterdam-Noord to the city’s Station Zuid to give people another connection to Hoofddorp and Schiphol Airport The Cabinet is spending heavily on the necessary infrastructure projects to serve newly constructed residential areas The Cabinet wants to build more than 900,000 new homes by 2030 most of which will be in the Randstad region About 65 percent of the money will be spent in the Randstad more than 1.5 billion euros will go to improving stations and the railroad between Leiden and Dordrecht Around 77,000 homes will be built along this route through 2040 625 million euros will be earmarked for new river crossings the government is investing in will spend money on the Zuidasdok at the Amsterdam Zuid station and the completion of the metro ring in Amsterdam which theoretically would make the Haven-Stad more accessible by extending the subway from Isolatorweg past the new district to Central Station the Amsterdam Noord/Zuidlijn will also be extended from Station Zuid to Schiphol and Hoofddorp This has been lobbied as a critical piece of infrastructure that can boost regional transportation not just to the airport but for the west side of the Amsterdam region as a whole The national government will spend 4.1 billion euros on the Amsterdam metropolitan region alone Other parties will also need to commit another 1.3 billion euros The region expects to be home to 270,000 new jobs to be created by 2050 which means that more infrastructure will be needed the region also wants to have constructed 325,000 additional homes more than 800 million euros will go to the Brainport Eindhoven region There must be a so-called "multimodal hub" with "enough space for the growing number of travelers by bus Investments are also being made further outside the Randstad region including 30 million euros earmarked for a better rail connection between Enschede and Münster and 150 million euros will go to the RegioExpres in Gelderland This shortens the travel time between Winterswijk and Arnhem by thirteen minutes For those passengers connecting to the Randstad The plans do not yet state how the situation will progress with the Lelylijn It was already agreed that 3 billion euros would be committed to the project but it is still unknown where the train route will be placed The Cabinet is also allocating more money for cycling infrastructure the government wants to build more biking routes and bicycle parking facilities There will also be new tunnels and bridges for cyclists and pedestrians For more information
