MIAMI, FL[/COLOR][/B] - In his first official visit to South Florida since becoming Haiti's prime minister, Jean-Max Bellerive said Tuesday that Haiti is working to lower fees needed to invest in his country.

"It costs too much to invest in Haiti today" Bellerive told The Miami Herald.

"We have to lower the cost of the transactions." said the Haitian prime minister.

Bellerive's remarks came at the Caribbean-Central American Action's 33rd Miami conference at the InterContinental Hotel.

The conference ends Wednesday.

Government officials, U.S. diplomats and business leaders are meeting in downtown Miami this week to discuss rejuvenating the economy of the Caribbean and Central America.

We remain very committed as a government to putting in place good governance and the climate that can allow for competitive advantage that can be built right there in Haiti.

Bellerive, who was appointed last month, said he hopes to not only relay the message that Haiti is open for business but also that it is working to make it easier and cheaper for investors to do business.

Wilgeens Rosenberg Here we go again! who cares if prime minister Jean-Max Bellerive is a "scholar" and had held every public office in the world? Yes, that would be nice if he is a scholar, but the big most important question about him is, can he > >

Delivering in Haiti is relatively a matter of having to actually be on the job. No one can claim from a distance prior to being on the job to know for certain what they can truly do for Haiti. Much is to be assess on the job whereas could have been > >
