No More Big Flat Screens

The inauguration on April 30 has caused an unprecedented demand for large television screens. The demand is so high that rental companies in the Netherlands are out of stock. Screens are now arranged from Belgium and Germany, according to a report by AD. Orange Associations have complained about exorbitant prices which are asked for the flat screens, which are up to 5,000 euro. Some of the associations may not be able to find a screen in time as they cannot pay the high prices. These associations find it important to show the April 30 inauguration live on a big screen because otherwise they fear that the people will stay away and simply watch the spectacle at home on their own television.
