Damn. The situation was eventually resolved, I take?

@BillyBrizzi

I grew up in a former mining area. The communities I got into contact with the most are Italians and Turks and to a slightly lesser extent Greeks and Moroccans. It's very close to the Dutch border, so there's quite a few people from the Netherlands that live here (sometimes for a short period of time).

A certain part of the Antillean criminals have become pretty big though. At least bigger than I ever thought they would become. They move lots of cocaine - a few years ago there was a wok plaza in my area that was used as a front by a couple of Antilleans who lived right over the border. Now with the development of the Curaçao-based gangs that have made inroads into local politics and set up drug smuggling bases in "Antillengemeenten" in the Netherlands as well, one could almost say they have become to the Netherlands what the Yardies were to England in the late 80's/early 90's.
