Haiti, La Peur Et Le Declin Soutenus

Do you understand what is taking place in Haiti right now? In fact, it is nothing new: Elected officials take refuge behind nominated officials to 'fool' the people.

Why did Alexis get fired so late? What is the rational for deposing him, considering that his politics was approved by parliament recently? This is a reactionary parliament which acts by instinct, no real mass behind their decisions. they take action because they are afraid to lose their own job. Remenber! They did not show real concern for the deterioration of the living conditions of the people which many organizations have been voicing for nearly six months.

Instead they spent the time arguing on how to get rid of boulos, a senator who is retained as being tied to US citizenship, or fighting among themselves over petty matters. I don't believe that Mr. Alexi lacks the competence to do the job and do it well. And they know it too! For fear of getting fired by the people; they take action and there find the scapegoat.

The private sector needs to show that they, at least, have some understanding of the plight of the poor at this particular time in the History of the Country.

For too long they remain so passive and look at the masses with disdain. They could have collaborated with the government to see how they could help to curb prices on some most basic food items.This would have prevented the riots and looting of the pastweek. It does not seem that it is going to work like that any more. It cannot be that as long as you as a government official or a business owner is fed alongside your family, the hell for the rest of the nation which is the majority.

I have heard about so much dialogues between political parties in Haiti. Everyday you hear that there exist good dialogues between parties. It is obvious that these dialogues continue to be mere political cocktails that may have nothing to do with the hunger and extreme poverty that befall Haiti.

Any primary dialogue about Haiti after the elections, considering it as a post conflict territory, should have taken into consideration, the misery on the ground. Haiti has gone through enough political dialogs while the economic dialogue remains dormant. We must learn to love our neighbor as ourselves. Haiti can no longer be ruled within the context of exclusion, we must materialize the moto: "L’union fait la force" to rebuild it.

I will continue to do what I can for the few that I can, until the dream of the Haitian people is finally realized, until we move from the culture of mud and dust and build the skyscrapers of a Haiti, peaceful and prosperous.
