Bonaire, Saba and St Eustatius videos: choose the actual language version

Start with the campaign’s real publisher

The September 2025 portal account identifies Statistics Netherlands, or CBS, as the organization behind This is us! The initials refer here to the statistics organization, not a television network with the same letters elsewhere. Keep the full publisher name and campaign title when searching. The article concerns a campaign highlighting young people across Bonaire, Saba and St Eustatius. It is a public-information production, not a national entertainment channel or a complete local television schedule.

Choose among the explicitly linked versions

The account provides Video: Dutch, English and Papiamentu links. Those are stronger evidence for separate campaign versions than the language of the surrounding article. Follow the version you need and inspect the actual media. A Dutch page can link an English video, and a Papiamentu written transcript may be a separate reading aid rather than selectable captions. Retain the selected version with the URL so another viewer does not have to infer the language from a shared campaign thumbnail.

Distinguish the campaign from older safety clips

The portal also hosts older short videos with written Dutch and Papiamentu text, including a forty-second 2021 household fire-extinguisher item. That page’s dated file and transcript structure identify a different format from the 2025 campaign. Use those older clips for their stated subject and date, not as evidence that a current alert is active. A transcript can help understand what the clip says, but it does not itself establish the media player’s caption controls or an equivalent English audio version.

Keep all three island contexts visible

The directory groups three islands, while individual stories may focus on one community or the combined area. Preserve the named island or the three-island scope when sharing a result. For an on-demand campaign video, the useful checks are version, subject, duration and original date. For a separately scheduled live event, obtain the actual local appointment and relevant island clock before converting to a Canadian city. The existence of government videos does not establish one shared TV market, Canadian playback or third-party package inclusion.
