Hi, Doc. Haiti's current Government may not be ready to modernize Haiti but they certainly can if the Haitian Government:

1. adopts GSPARE

2. admits government cannot solve every problem and should not even try

3. involve the Haitian people in the reconstruction/modernization

4. encourage massive participation

5. renegotiate the wireless companies contract to get some new cash flow

6. open up a BNRH bank branch in the US to get fast access to the US dollar and tap directly into the Haitian diaspora productivity

7. use the new cash flow to build nine new regional college campuses for technology, medicine, biology, and pharmaceutical engineering

8. make Jeremie the new political capital

9. send unemployed Por-au-Prince residents to build terraces in the mountains to stop further soil erosion.

10. build a merchant marine college to help develop cabotage so that road building become less of a necessity

11. privatize EDH with a dichotomy model

12. use the cash from EDH privatization to build up the inner city of Jeremie, Port-de-Paix, Gonaives, Jacmel, Cayes, Cap, Fort-Liberte.

13 build the inner city with job creating projects such as: soccer stadium, gymnasium, convention centers, sewage plants, public squares...
