Brunswijk wants to win votes in Nickerie with rice mill
“If I do very well with my rice mill, then I think I can win even more votes,” ABOP chairman Ronnie Brunswijk recently said on ABC Actueel about his rice mill in Nickerie.

In recent days, Brunswijk was in Nickerie to inspect his rice mill, which he recently acquired. He immediately took the opportunity to meet with ABOP’s local structures. “All structures are in place and the people say that they are still ABOP supporters.”

During the most recent elections, ABOP received 480 votes in Nickerie, and Brunswijk wants to increase this number. “When people have to vote for you, they must have faith in you.” He wants to combine his political work in the district with his rice business.

If everything goes well and the people of Nickerie are satisfied, he can then ask them for support in the 2030 elections. Brunswijk had previously planned to acquire a rice mill, but now wants to combine this with his political work. “What is important now is that the farmers in Nickerie gain confidence in me.”
