For anyone interested in the full transcript of the Remarks made by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton at the Haiti Donors Conference here is the link:

state.gov/secretary/rm/2009a/04/121674.htm

This is in response to the full video posted here, thanks to who ever posted it.

Here is the part that caught my attention:

"To build a diversified economy, Haiti needs more than trade deals.

It needs an infrastructure to support the flow of goods and services.

The roads in Haiti, for anyone who has ever visited, are beyond inadequate.

Many communities are isolated, in the year 2009, by the lack of passable roads.

That prevents people from holding jobs, children from going to schools, farmers from bringing crops to market.

Better roads are essential."

I agree with that comment and I hope that something is done about it ASAP. Being that Ms. Clinton stressed on the "in the year 2009" I think she understand the fierce urgency of now when it comes to the development of Haiti.

I would love to know what part of the speech you like
