Ovia Olo

Ovia Olo, also Ovillanhollo, is a village of Ndyuka Maroons in the Patamacca resort of the Marowijne District of Suriname.

[2] In 2011,[4] the Marowijne Art Park was opened on the East-West Link near Ovia Olo.

[6] In 2016, Zhong Heng Tai Investment was given permission to start a 40,000 hectares palm oil plantation[1] even though the village authorities had voted against the plan in 2005.

The village was initially not opposed to the plan until the scale was revealed.

[7] A smaller plantation had existed near the village between 1975 and 1980, but was destroyed during the Surinamese Interior War.
