Hi Greg; Welcome to the blog. I'm not sure that you realized that you actually hit the nail on the head with your statement "Preval himself has been there.
But I believe they do not know how to develop the place.
All there is to do is to set up a basic infrastructure." You see, you had a great proposal.
But there are so many great proposals.
It is not the genius that is missing; Haitians themselves have come-up with so many great ideas.
However, as your statement clearly indicates, great ideas go to waist when leadership is lacking to follow through.
I ponder sometimes at the people who say that "the people need to make changes happen in Haiti." There has never been a nation on the face of the planet that had national success without national leadership.
The very idea is not rational.
Only governments build national infrastructures, and only visionary governments lead nations upwardly.

Hi Greg, i like your ideas. I had similar ideas about the island of La Gonave, i thought about getting Donald Trump etc. to built resorts and casinos on the island. Then, by curiosity today i started to read people's posts and i ended up reading your

Hi, Thank you Mr. Peters for your concern toward my beloved Haiti. Certainly, Wyclef is great patriot and we thank him every day for showing true love for the land of his ancestors. However, I am afraid you fall also into the same category of well-in

Hi, By the way, how many Haitians actors are starring in that movie. Why isn't Fabienne Colas playing the role of Toussaint's mistress; Fabienne is our great hope. Thanks

I had a similar idea to develop the island of la Gonave as a tourist resort independent of whatever might be going on in Haiti ( not as elaborate as yours of course) But you are missing one major point here: with so many mediocre thieves working in t

All you are saying is very true. My advice to all Haitians diaspora and natives is to unite and be positive. You have to come together and work as one. I believe that it is possible to soften ignorant people and help them love their people and the

Haitian actors would be nice but that is the least important issue. The main issue is to expose Haiti to the world. Most people around the world are not very well educated and do not know world history. They do not know the importance Haiti played

All you have said about countries such as France, the United States, the Dominican Republic and other countries isolating Haiti, raping Haiti, stealing from Haiti, giving Haiti a bad reputation and so forth is true. The Bible says that the meek will

Hello. Thank you for responding to my message. I am glad to see that you care about Haiti as well. A little bit about myself: I am a retired entertainment promoter from New York City. I now live in the Dominican Republic (at least half of the ti

Hi, a few quick essential points for historical accuracy. Haiti only occupied DR under J-P Boyer for only 22 years and the Dominincans invited Haiti to take over ( yes they invited Haiti in) as protection against Spain. So, they need to check their o
