And where the he!! is the US media?!?!?!?!?

That is still a huge question for me too jen.

I was reading some about this the other day, and wondered if it had anything at all to do with the complete American media absence.

Maybe... maybe not?

It's been a month now, since Mr. Hogan's disappearance.

Over this month there has not been a single report by American Media on location in Curacao.

New information is very hard to find, or non existent.

WHY?

 

[texasmom]

Is Mr. Hogan's family still in Curacao?  Are they o.k.?  Is his wife still a person of interest?

So many questions...   

[Buckeye]

Is this his daughter?

If anyone has stories about my husband, my love of 24 years, I would love to hear them. This note was not passed along to us. I found this blog by chance. Old pix, stories, anything would be welcome, since I didn’t meet him until he was a LT and I was an ENS at HSL33. Jim is a great man, a devout Catholic, a devoted husband and father. I’ve never known another man like him.

That's his wife, and that is a new picture.  It's been changed in the last day or two again.

That's sad.  So Paul Hogan, James Hogan's brother did not pass the information along to the family like he said he would after two weeks time?  How long does it take to drop an email with a link?   

I'd come across the original post and response by Paul Hogan not long after he responded.  I didn't post it here because his response included his email address.  But I have seen it posted on another forum since then.  I'm glad you posted it Buckeye because I hadn't been back lately or seen Abby Hogan's response.

Thanks Buckeye, I hadn't seen this either.  Rather insensitive comment... 

With all the equipment and time spent in the area, it seems like they would have found his body if he was killed and put in the water.  Or that something would have washed ashore.  This is just very odd imo.  I'm just no so sure he was ever in the water, or not put in at that location.

I have no idea what's going on or what happened.  I do believe Abby's picture is of St. Brendan the Navigator.     I'm guessing she thinks that the water is involved.

Maybe Curacao is blocking communications?

Have they named a new vice consul?  Just an oversight?   

[texasmom]

Is all of this development in the same area? 

Someone please tell me it's not, or if it is...that it couldn't possibly have anything to do with this case soon becoming a distant memory.

Focus on cruise CPA town Caracas Bay Peninsula

Sketch of the cruise village from the annual report of CPA. The monuments are by Royal Caribbean focal points, but are almost gone in the drawing between the modern buildings.

PHILIPSBURG - Vision and dreams about the future of the ports on the island. The annual report of Curaçao Ports Authority only shows beautiful years figures which the Port Authority wants to go. This particularly about Caracas Bay Cruise Village.

Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, the second largest cruise company in the world, has a development plan for the peninsula of Caracas Bay drafted. The field should transform into a tourist and residential area. The existing piers to moor vessels of any size.
The company will of the cruise village "a destination to make cruise where tourists come throughout the year. It uses the vision that RCCL destinations in the area beyond to develop cruise terminals varied sustainable places for both cruise and stay tourists. The company participates in this himself along.

The plans include a five-and four-star resort, a Ecoresort and a marina with associated activities such as shops, restaurants and entertainment. The monuments Fort Beekenburg quarantine the building and keep their distinctive functions and the conservation area on the peninsula, according to Royal Caribbean intact.

CPA-chairman Alexis Daou goes into the annual report explicitly on the development vision of Caracas Bay: "We see this development as an opportunity for us to rise to new economic heights. A unique opportunity that we should not miss. "It goes by the CEO not only to attract more cruise passengers or income tax. "If we as a country, this project can get off the ground we change the whole concept of cruise tourism in Curaçao." In this vision, the cruise tourism can develop in such a way that it can grow to economic pillar by itself (as was done in St. Maarten the case, red). "This development goes far beyond what we currently can only achieve with visiting cruise ships. We must seize this opportunity before others do. "

Skeptics
The CPA-directors Richard Lopez Ramirez and Agustin Diaz go deeper into the consequences of the widening of the Panama Canal and the opportunities it can bring to the island in conjunction with the vision of Caracas Bay Peninsula. Worldwide the trend is that vessels grow in size. Tankers, cargo ships, but cruise ships. With the completion of the new Panama Canal in 2014, receives a direct impact on Curaçao.

"Skeptics are the plans in question. Proponents of a cruise pier elsewhere on the island will feel threatened, but this is not about half mega pier. Ideally we want third and even fourth and fifth cruise pier. But we are not able to get around this financially. The current cruise terminal the next ten years will not generate money. "

The development vision is about the island "in the top cruise destinations in the world with the help of powerful partners strongly believe in our product and expect to invest. The supervisor makes an urgent call for government support, local developers and tourist organizations. "A vision is a dream with a deadline. We must seize the opportunity now to not miss the boat. "
 

Higher profits
The CPA Group last year posted a turnover of 64 million guilders and put it on growth. "This result is by no coincidence," says CEO Alexis Daou. "It is the result of strategic decisions and hard work of my predecessors, administration and management of the CPA."
CPA put themselves last year to 67 million and was to cost 50 million. Net profit after tax amounted to 11.7 million guilders, more than 4 million more than in 2007. The turnover was 54 million guilders in 2007, but the cost of 42.8 million were also significantly lower than last year.
