The Netherlands helped its former colony to gain independence. In 1973 Netherlands' Prime Minister Joop den Uyl [August 9, 1919-December 24, 1987] began working with Suriname's Governor Johan Ferrier [May 12, 1910-January 4, 2010] and Prime Minister Henck Arron [April 25, 1936-December 4, 2000] to bring about independence. The law authorizing independence was enacted in the Netherlands in October 1975. Suriname's political Constitution declaring the country a republic [Republiek Suriname] was unanimously approved by Suriname's National Assembly [De Nationale Assemblee, DNA] on November 19, 1975. Suriname officially became independent on November 25, 1975.
