Timeline

1934

Hendrick Rudolf "Henk" Chin A Sen (pinyin: Chén Yàxiān; 18 January 1934 – 11 August 1999) was a Surinamese politician who served as the President of Suriname from 15 August 1980 until 4 February 1982.

Hendrick Rudolf Chin A Sen was born in the town of Albina, on 18 January 1934.

1959

He studied medicine at the Geneeskundige School of Paramaribo and graduated in 1959.

From 1959-1961, he began a general practice, then went to the Netherlands to specialize as an internist.

When he returned to Suriname, he worked in the Sint Vincentius Hospital in Paramaribo.

Then he joined the Nationalist Republican Party (PNR), a party which pursued the independence of Suriname, although he was not very active.

1980

On 15 March 1980, after the Sergeants Coup, which brought Dési Bouterse and his military council to power, Chin A Sen was installed as Prime Minister of Suriname.

The appointment of the non-politically active Chin A Sen came as a surprise.

Chin A Sen formed a leftist cabinet which included two members of the National Military Council (NMR) and also for time females.

Siegmien Power-Staphorst and Nel Stadwijk-Kappel were appointed under minister and Power-Staphorst soon after became a minister.

On 15 August 1980, after President Johan Ferrier resigned, Chin A Sen assumed the post of President as well.

1982

On 4 February 1982, Chin A Sen was fired by Bouterse after a disagreement.

He exiled himself first to Pittsburgh in the United States, and then to the Netherlands where he arrived on 27 December 1982.

In the Netherlands, after the December murders of 1982, Chin A Sen was chosen as Chairman of the Council for the Liberation of Suriname.

The Council opposed the reign of Bouterse and his supporters, but it was not very successful.

Chin A Sen was later in connection with Ronnie Brunswijk and his Jungle Commando, who waged an armed struggle against Bouterse.

1985

On 7 March 1985, five musicians practising in an office building in Rijswijk were attacked by armed men.

Three musicians were killed.

The offices of Chin A Sen and the Council for the Liberation were located on the same floor.

The hit was probably directed against Chin A Sen. He was, however, not present at that moment.

1995

In 1995, Chin A Sen returned to Paramaribo, where he resumed his work as an internist.

He died at the age of 65 in Paramaribo.

1997

The investigation was reopened in 1997, but no prosecution was made.
