I think most who have followed Natalee's case will remember this guy...wonder what other questionable and/or illegal contracts he entered into?  He obviously didn't think the rules applied to him.  

One in particular always comes to mind when I think of this guy.  Still have to wonder about that.

BRIESEN, Edison - Minister of Transportation & Tourism

From the same page...

COHEN, Stephen J.    -  American residing in Aruba. Strategic Message Design Group (SMDG) Consulting Team chairman, adviser to the Aruba Hotel and Tourism Association (AHATA) and the Aruba Strategic Communications Task Force. Appeared on the Dr Phil Show in January 2006 as Aruba’s spokesperson claiming that 2 of the boys reported having sex with Natalee, and that J2K were guilty, after which he was severely reprimanded by Tourism Minister Briesen.  Has sister company to SMDG called Cohen DiLella Broadcast Group. Cohen now resides in California.



In today's news...

http://www.amigoe.com/aruba/137849-ex-minister-briesen-voor-rechter-vanwege-aangaan-dubieus-miljoenencontract

Google translation:

Ex-minister for justice because Briesen engage dubious million contract         

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 1, 2012 8:15

ORANGE CITY - In the case of the American festival producer Lee Tofanelli against the Aruban government should former minister Edison Briesen (MEP) is the right answer for concluding million contracts. The contracts were signed by Briesen in conflict with the law, according to the lawyer who defends the country Aruba.

The contracts were for the organization of Aruba Music Festival where many famous music stars performed. There are several contracts with Tofanelli, the last just before the 2009 elections. The successor Briesen as Minister of Tourism, Otmar Oduber (AVP) honored this contract and refused the services of the festival producer to pay. That tells lawyer Chris Lejuez the government defends.

Oduber did this on the basis of reports by the Central Audit Department (CAD) and the Public Prosecution Service (OM) drafted. This shows that ex-Minister Briesen tender has held for the services of the movie producer while though according to the Accounting Act had been. Ministers may in this Act otherwise make an exception and based on valid reasons, no public tender for services that keep more than 1 tonne florin costs. If this is selected, the Minister must be a ministerial decision Plan with the reasons why there was no public tender was held. But that has Briesen was omitted. This all happened in seven of the eight years that the contracts were applicable.

Millions of stories

It says Lejuez, ATA has tourist office at the time, several times the then Minister of Tourism negative opinion for entering into contracts with Tofanelli. These opinions, he ignored, says the lawyer. And that is perhaps one of the motives been said Lejuez why the judge now thinks that the former minister responsible and why Briesen in January in the courtroom accountability must be accountable. The risk is also present that Briesen millions have to pay to the government now Tofanelli Country Aruba in court has summoned. The festival producer demands based on the recently signed contract is $ 3,000,000. If the court finds that the government will have to pay that amount, but also finds that Briesen in conflict with the law has acted, then the government can recover the million amount Briesen, lays out the counsel.

The ex-minister does not otherwise criminal case against him to fear. According Lejuez there is a report from the Attorney General's indication no reason to see Briesen criminal prosecution.


I always thought that Eddie Breisen was one of the crookedest of the crooks in aruba.

I wondered why the last document didn't quote Steve Cohen in that last document
from the Kalpoe Lawsuit.   I think there is even a video of him saying that two of
the three boys had admitted to having sex with Natalee.
Edit to fix quote/missing bracket.  MB

Me too.   

Me too.  It's not just Music Festivals...  IIRC he illegally awarded a contract for the re-development of the harbor to a Spanish company without any kind of open bid or negotiating process.

"He's so crooked he couldn't lie straight in bed."
         


02/12/2008
Council of Ministers of Aruba makes a decision leading Edison Briesen, Minister of Tourism & Transportation to appoint MTBS  (Maritime & Transport Business Solutions) as Project Manager to lead and direct the redevelopment of the Aruban harbor areas.

02/22/2008

RED (A Political Party) Reports Against Premier Nelson Oduber & Minister of Tourism and Transport Edison Briesen … Accountability, Forgery & Bribery?

Quote
“Party-leader Rudy Lampe of opposition party RED and his fellow party member Armand Hessels reported violation of the accountability act and forgery in the harbour project in Aruba against Premier Nelson Oduber (MEP) and his fellow party member Minister of Tourism and transport, Edison Briesen, with the Public Prosecutor (OM) on Monday afternoon.  According to RED, there is supposedly also bribery involved.”

05/06/2008
Edison Briesen, minister of Tourism and Transport:  We do follow the tender rules

Quote
ORANJESTAD – “That we ignore the international tender rules of the World Trade Organization is a lie. We do follow the national rules and that goes also for the contract with MTBS”, says Tourism-minister Edison Briesen in a reaction on the reporting of RED against him and Prime Minister Nelson Oduber.

The minister lashed out at the informants in a press conference.  “Mister Rudy Lampe and Mister Armand Hessels, your time will come.  The evidence given to the Public prosecutor will also go to my lawyer; because I can also start a criminal case for slander.” Briesen explains that the government is not required to put up work to public tender.

 ::snipping2::

In "Not in Water nor in Sand," the author recounts how she learned facts about the disappearance of a young girl named Natalee Holloway in June 2005. Albeit being an ordinary person, who experienced both happy and troubled times, Ronda began to experience a series of extraordinary awakenings, which led her to experience visions, visitation, and revelations.

Not wanting to turn her back on the quest to seek justice for the poor victim, Ronda became involved with solving the mystery, doing everything she could to help. Nonetheless, her efforts ended up in vain after being thwarted by interventions outside of her control. "Not in Water nor in Sand" is her attempt to document everything she learned about the case, hoping that in this way, she can still take part in bringing the truth out of the darkness and into the light.

I noted this is a post by someone with that same first name of Ronda. This is from my old copy of posts from the old Natalee Holloway site back in 2005. I wonder if it is a co inky dink

Notes of encouragement and reports of prayers may be e-mailed to Natalee’s family through Sheridan Hills Baptist Church at prayer@elevate.cc.
This woman is a mother who had a daughter on the trip and friends with Natalee: I also think she is arbeej @ yahoo.com
And maybe RONDA at nataleeholloway site


from a list of members of the Natalee Holloway site:I noted that the same name was a member there back in 2005


Ronda70: 35, married at 29, first child born in Dec pre mature.
