Queen Beatrix swore in Eugene Holiday as Governor of St. Maarten and Frits
Goedgedrag as Governor of Curaçao on September 30, 2010. The swearing
in took place at Palace Huis ten Bosch in the presence of the wives of the
governors.
The appointments go into effect on October 10 when the Netherlands Antilles
is officially dismantled and Curaçao and St. Maarten become separate countries
within the Kingdom. The swearing in is historical, because St. Maarten never
had its own governor.

And today's event:
Queen Beatrix attended the ceremonial presentation of the 1800 commemorative
medals to soldiers of the Task Force Oeroezgan at the Bossche Brabanthallen in
’s-Hertogenbosch, October 1st.
Nearly 1,800 soldiers received a commemorative medal for their efforts during the
ISAF mission in the Afghan provinces of Uruzgan and Kandahar.
