Marcel La Rose
Marcel La Rose is a Surinamese social geographer and former district chairman of Amsterdam-Zuidoost, who, after retiring, remains active as the president of the Entrepreneurs Association Amsterdam Westpoort. Born in Suriname, he moved to the Netherlands in 1974 and has since critically engaged with his home country's socio-political landscape, particularly in the context of its upcoming oil revenues. La Rose emphasizes the need for strengthening institutions and mobilizing knowledge from the global Surinamese diaspora to ensure that the influx of oil revenue does not lead to a repeat of past mistakes, such as the erosion of democracy and sustainable development.
