politician Suriname

Ludwig Mendelzoon is the district commissioner of Brokopondo, Suriname, where he oversees local governance and development issues. Recently, he has been in the news regarding the presence of skalians, or floating gold pontoons, in the Brokopondo area, which have been a topic of concern due to their environmental impact and the associated illegal gold mining activities. Despite local rumors suggesting that he benefits financially from the skalian operations, Mendelzoon maintains that he has no direct dealings with the skalian owners and emphasizes the need for regulatory oversight by the National Environmental Authority.
