ON AGRICULTURE:
It is Haiti's largest strength and hope for economical growth and possible prosperity.
On a worldwide basis, more people are involved in agriculture than in all the other occupations combined.
We in the Diasporas abroad can help.
ON GREEN PROJECTS:
Looking back through all of Haiti's political crisis and unrest of wars around the world all together, famines and plagues, food shortages and starvation have been common throughout human history and there have been many grim predictions that gains in food production would not be able to keep pace with increases in population.
To date, through invention and innovation, man has managed to keep up. Well, so can Haiti.
That I truly believe, period.
The world population is growing and so is Haiti's. What affect the world and other major developed Countries causes greater effect on the underdeveloped ones especially and in particularly Haiti who relies most on importation more so than ever today...
The United Nations estimates that Haiti's population is already over 9 million people.
It is predicted that such population will reach over 10 million by 2020.
If only Haitians would farm the land like they used to as they breed children everyday while having no jobs or alternative means to support those children.
Although the ecological situation poses great contribution to the harvesting and farming of the land of Haiti, but there are vast areas in Haiti that possess by far greater potentials than those areas already affected by erosions, floods, tree cutting and burning for charcoals.
ON NEW CITIES:
Just look at any recent zoom-able GoogleEarth map you will see that we need to start shifting the land farming agricultural focus and support on those areas.
Especially those locations around the close by border of Haiti and Dominican Republic like THIOTE, BOYOCO, BALBAS that are East of Petionville near ETANG SAUMATRE and build new local Tourist cities there.
I have been there just recently and it is so beautiful and picturesque there my friends.
Trust and believe me, we have so many more other ones like those I have just described all over Haiti.
I know for a fact, simply because I have physically visited them personally.
We need to shift the tourism focal point on newly build cities by undertaking new building developments and constructions of those not yet over populated, polluted or ecologically corrupted socially challenged as Port-Au-Prince.
Those beautiful locations such as IROIS, LES ANGLAIS and ANSE D'HAINAULT that are located in the South near JEREMIE are not nor as yet to be as socially challenged as Port-Au-Prince.
PORT AU PRINCE is not all there is to Haiti nor has to offer which is indeed, nothing.
Perhaps many Haitian people, the government and the elite rich do not know that Haiti has such beautiful and lush green places like COTE DE FER and SAINT LOUIS DU SUD that will not require so much money to modernize, improve and rebuild and there many more like those.
Those areas have what I call VIP "Virgin Infrastructural Potentials" to become major cities for the NEW HAITI.
MY MESSAGE: So there really are no excuses people!!! We an do this, especially us in the Haitian Diaspora all over the world.
I am sure that since all those years and generation that by now we must have at least a couple of Haitian millionaires with high connections living abroad with all kinds of degrees and educations who can undertake this as personal projects to partake in Haiti's development and advancement.
We can come and go into blogs and do all kinds of talk and bickering, place all kind of criticisms and blames; but as Haitians this question remains: What have we built or established on our own in Haiti infrastructurally and institutionally that we may/can be proud of to flaunt in the face of the rest of the world beside a great Slave Revolution History?
