DE VRIES DISSED FOR "GOLDEN RING" AWARD
Peter De Vries snubbed at home for documentary on Natalee Holloway
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands - The Dutchman who won an Emmy for his television documentary about the disappearance of U.S. teenager Natalee Holloway has been snubbed by the Netherlands' annual television awards. Peter de Vries wasn't among the nominees for the "Golden Ring" awards for his Feb. 3, 2008, program, which was among the most highly viewed broadcasts in the history of Dutch television, with an estimated seven million viewers in a nation of 16 million. It was based on hidden-camera interviews with Joran van der Sloot, the Dutch youth last seen with Holloway before her disappearance in Aruba on May 30, 2005.
The program won the 2008 International Emmy for Current Affairs but was ignored by the Dutch awards in favour of Desperate Housewives clone "Gooische Vrouwen," the variety show "Nice! De Leeuw Again" and a talent-hunt called "Looking for Evita." The nominees were announced Thursday, and a winner will be chosen Oct. 24.
"It doesn't keep me awake at night," De Vries told Dutch Weblog GeenStijl in a video interview. "I have an Emmy at home, it's standing on my fireplace, gleaming, and that's better than any other prize you could win in this industry."

Most young Dutch people favor Peter De Vries. The old corrupt Dutch folks got stuck with the stupid "Goosee Voowee" from the past.
PDV has conscience and justice. He can run for President for Change. Netherlands is too bed ridden with corruptions and murders.
The Golden Ring is out of touch and goovy. The Gold Ring in old days were made of iron sulphite, the fool's gold, to chain around the dead Dutch sailor bodies for sea burial.
Gold ring is gold ring. When you add 'en' to it to make it look Golden, it's phony and injustice. The whole Dutchland is just like that, dishonest and vile. PDV sees that, and he wants to his star reporter power to change the toxic Dutch political environments.
Old Joran (OJ) will be caught eventually, on his own accord, said the PDV fans in the Octoberfest last night. Someone placed Old Joran's picture cutout inside a crab cage for charity aution to help the homeless people in Amsterdam.
Newsday Friday 13 was an omen for Old Joran and put him on notice. His mother Anita warned him not to leave Holland, not even try to come home Aruba for Christmas. Joran is currently under the protection of Queen Beatrix. He is now on the international sex offender list. If Joran got a traffic violation ticket in other countries, he could be put on trial. The emotional jury can find him guilty of human trafficking and grant him a life sentence.
The former classmates of Joran in ISA said Jorna's dishonest and dishonorable character has damaged the reputation of Arubans seeking jobs in Florida.
The 16.8 billion euro bailout of Benelux by the Dutch government last week has ignored Aruba's bankrupted tourism. Aruba now has nowhere to go for help. Oduber has burned the bridge with US due to mishandling of Natalee's murder case.
Benelux owned the Aruba central bank who in turn owns majority of the Aruba government building mortgages. The central bank sent out an instruction warrant and asked the Dutch Marine Marchals to evict Oduber and his family from the red hilltop mansion last week.
The Aruba financial meltdown is justice delayed but not justice denied. Unless Joran surrenders, Oduber will be kicked out of his government office soon. The Arubans are very angry.
"gotcha" is a bad political word. Don't say that in your MySpace webpage, Joran. Don't you know you are in grave danger. Your tarco lawyer said so.
Being unable to restore confidence in the Queen Beatrix's balance sheet due to her failed hotel investments in Aruba, the Dutch government took full control of the operations Dutch bank ABN Amroin the Netherlands on Sunday. To rid of corruptions, all the Aruban officials' deposits in the bank's hedge funds accounts will not be guranteed. Those Dutch bank accouts have long been suspected of laundering money for the cocaine and human trafickings. Joran's legal expenses had also been paid by those illict bank accounts.
The EU financial experts said Joran's lies had undermined the solvency of the Netherlands' failed banking system. No one can trust the Dutch government because of Joran's release from jail after the investigation by PDV was ruled as irrelevant by Queen Beatrix's ethics review board of three judges appointed by her. The financial lawyers urged Queen Beatrix to arrest Joran as soon as possible to avert the meltdown of the whole EU money market. They all agree that Joran is root cause of no confidence in the Kingdom of Netherlands. Netherlands is now viewed as a cancer spreading harms to other member countries of EU. If the Queen don't arrest Joran, the other countries will. That's the only way to save Europe from total destruction.
