Good but with a bit of interest it becomes better

Suriname needs trees next to the benches to provide shade in summer. Many cars park around the square and at the entrance of Kieskoel flat, which makes the space in the street and at the flat entrance very small. There are too many parking spaces available near the square where cars can park safely without obstructing the street. Dog owners let their dogs poop and don't clean up, and children play here. A fine should be introduced so that all dog owners will clean up and children can find a safe and healthy playground.
