A very sad indication that Holland is emulating much of the world in eliminating access to quality reporting, diversity, art, cultural interests, and advances in civilisation. RNW is one of the few remaining venues for such wide ranging and balanced information and debate. The Dutch Government should be ashamed at even suggesting this move as it marks the demise of key distinctions of 'being Dutch' - acceptance, diversity, openness, and tolerance. Remember that your actions will go down in history attached to your names and era. Think again on whether this is a wise decision given the order of magnitude of the actual financial 'savings' versus historial damage. Shame on you!
