WILLEMSTAD. According to the President of SITEK, Mr. Darius "Lio" Plantijn, the way the Commission was formalized last month, should direct the journey and project of the new Institute for handicrafts and specialization of work in Curaçao. It is something that has only just started, but he hopes that once the year turns, the process will be accelerated. According to Plantijn, we cannot start another school year with FEFFIK, but instead start with a new agreed upon Institute which is also a little broader than the FEFFIK itself. We must not forget that in this process, re-training and training must be given to workers. In any case there are a number of tasks that have to be done, to really open up with something completely new instead of FEFFIK and that generates more hope for both our children and the companies, so that they have a guarantee that they can get certain types of crafts in the market. It is also necessary to deliver more skilled and prepared workers than those who left FEFFIK, and that are at an excellent level. An example of this is that there is an inspector from the Fire department on the windward islands who is a FEFFIK graduate. All this helps to show how far the FEFFIK students can go.
