Monsieur Jean,
with all respect, I apreciate your effort to show Haiti, the ways it is. That is fine and dandy! We know these things existed.

May be you are calling our attention to clean up. That is very good! However, I have a problem with the way you are presenting Haiti.

You show a few nices pictures to blind us to your real intent.Your focus is on everything that is repulsive and uggly.

When I came to America, I thought there were no small houses, no poors, no trashes, no homeless, no beggars, no poverty.

I was sooooo surprised! All I saw from tourists, missionaries, movies and books were sky scrapers, prairies, Nice Highways, The Trade Center, The Empire State building ETC..

EVERYTHING was nice. However, my adventurous nature lead me to some remote part of America, and many states; I saw a lot of dirty things.

I would ask you to visit, Missisipi, Alabama, South Carolina, Newark, NJ, Part of Brooklyn, or Miami, Atlanta, Chicago etc...and you will see. I also visited a lot of countries; I know bad conditions exist.

Yet, I haven't seen any French, Canadian, American, Jamaican citizens show their country in such manner.

Furthermore, you use the worse kind of camera to take pictures for your site, Seing these embarrasing pictures tells me a lot about you: a man with a great taste for the uggly, whose soul is made up of negativism, a man with a real passion to degrade himself! You turn people awy from your site automatically, but guess what?

No matter what you show, Haiti will not be the same. Like the sphynx of the legend, soon or later, Haiti will rise from its ashes! You may continue to indirectly hurt the country by showing despicable, disgusting, and heart breaking pictures.

That how the missionaries use uggly, obscene and disgusting pictures to secure donations from brainless people.

May be You are in the process to collect donation to help the poors; your fisrt step in that direction is to use a disdainful strategy which coinsist to portray the country as the worse place on eath. Oh Yeah! Worse pictures means better donations, You invest $1 to acquire your little camera, take a few pictures, and now you are expecting ssome big, fat dividend! Thank God, many of us are not so dumb and immediately we recognize the motive behind your despicable presentation of Haiti.

You have no shame to show the entire world your taste for dirty things, where you and your relative are living.

You were born from trash, live in trash, now you are trying to make a living from trash and ...surely, you;re going to leave your name in those trashes...You have nothing to show but trash, you can't help it! Trash, that's what you are made of, that's all you have in your dumb mind. I know pig like trash...

Si ou Kreyol W'a konprann!!!!
Mwen menm Legba, Lwa mechan, si ou pas supann, montre vie bagay sa yo, M'ap kase kou si ou gen male mete pied nan katie sal sa yo pou pran foto. Ge fon krie davans, atansyion pa kapon...

Sadly, you are wrong again. If you Haitians ever paid any attention to what is going on, you might have a better clue. I CAN NOT and WILL NOT show just pretty pictures of the beach and some hotels and trees in Haiti, I would be misleading the peopl > >

You puny little fool us Haitians and Haiti do not need you or your site. Find yourserlf something more constructive to do. Since you are saying "you Haitians" I guess you are not or do not think of yourself as one of us. We do not need more negativit > >

Why don't any of the posts in here make sense? I showed somebody one of Linda's posts to me, and I said to him, "what does she mean, it doesn't make any sense." He replied to me, "does anything those people say, make any sense?" > >

Stop criticizing others unless you can show by your deeds that you can do a lot better.Go away "Fool" We do not need your negativity. Actions speak louder than words. Run along now. Go lay down somewhere. Talking about you HAITIANS!No one is forcing > >

how about getting some tourists back to Haiti. I really think that is probably the most important thing for the country right now!!!!! I am not being negative. > >

I am not really advertising, I just would've thought that most Haitians in the US would be interested in seeing a New Travel Site on Haiti. > >

Some changes were made to the Cap-Haitien page and a minor change to the Jacmel page. The Jacmel page needs a little work, I'll get to that sometime tomorrow. The Jacmel page is important being that it will probably be one of Haiti's main tourist d > >
