As vice president, Willemieke aims to use her expertise and (international) network to contribute to the growth and development of Curaçao 's maritime sector.  

“Curaçao has a lot of potential as a maritime jurisdiction. Part of the Dutch Kingdom, geologically perfectly situated and no fewer than six natural harbors, one of which is one of the largest in the world.

Within CMAR, we want to join the members’ forces and enable them to share knowledge and expertise. As such, we seek to facilitate cross selling and spinoff and to draw more international attention to Curaçao as an attractive maritime jurisdiction. Together we are stronger!”
