Thanks Mark,

The plan was/is to build a new harbour dock where the village is. But 
another new dock is only half occupied and the recession makes this 
planned dock unnecessary. Politicians however want to go through with 
this plan. many houses have been bought already by the government. Now 
they demolish a few at a time to discourage the remaining few inhabitants.

Cheers,

Michiel Fokkema
