Lydie Clark Parent

< Previous | Home | Next >

Lydie Parent is the current Mayor of Petion Ville.

I must tell you guys who blog with me that she seems to be the only person in Haiti doing something constructive.

She has been fighting to find ways to keep the streets clean; she has cleared the streets of the thousand of street vendors that made walking or driving dangerous for both drivers and pedestrians; The crime rate in Petion Ville has been incredibly reduce; she has demanded that the people who build their houses illegally over the space that was suppose to be left for side walk, move their houses back, and those who didn't had their walls torn by the government.

Now people can actually walk again in Petion ville.

She is forcing everybody to pay their taxes.

She is doing a lot, and by doing all that she is pis/sing-off a lot of people, both the poor and the rich. She has done all that in a very short period of time. What I like about her is that she seems to have no racial or class bias. She goes after everybody who is not doing what the law says they should do. I find her very refreshing.

Perhaps, someone who knows more about her might give me some more information.

I really am curious about this new politician who seems to want to REALLY make a difference.
