Bernadete S. says...

China's recent economic growth has been remarkable, millions have been lifted out of poverty and significant infrastructure has been put in place but still millions remain below the poverty line. - 150 millions of a population of 1.3 billions according to U.N. figures.

China as a developing country status is dubious because of its growth, percentage of its population below the poverty line and of course the fact that China prefers a developing country status to get financial help with climate change that is available to developing countries.

U.S.A denied that China is a developing country STILL.

U.S. said that China is the world's fastest increasing emitter and has called them to commit to hard carbon caps. China according to the U.S.does not fit the the third world consumption profile and does not deserve any financial discounts.

My basic answer was to your comment that China made somewhat a mistake by embracing democracy.

We can learn from China's success but I do not think that we can compare ourselves to China.

But as you basically said, It is all here and there.

Right now, Haiti has a more pressing problem: getting back to normal from the last January earthquake.

I conquer.

Do I see anything abnormal with the generous donation and the lack of true help?

YOU BET! I tried to answer this question on this blog. We have to understand Americans and their history of donation, in-State and overseas.

True salvation, self-determination, human dignity are not part of foreign Aid. These are attributes that we have to seek for ourselves.

We do appreciate the help, however Americans will do it on their own term. Do not you get it?

Good luck,
Bernadette S.

Thank you for your message. I fully agree that we have a lot to learn from other countries. And, my example of China is not far off the mark. They are a developing country and a sovereign country. They have done many things better than Haiti and > >

The Haitian people undoubtedly can use more help. The help needed however seems more political reorganization than financial cash flow... With a USD 9.9 billions to be used yet there is frustration as to what will get done for Haiti. We know since Ja > >

Thank you for your comments. I'm in agreement about your assessment of American aid. They, of course, are defending their interests. This is only natural. But around the world, other countries would defend their interests. We as Haitians need to > >

Stanley, I will assume that's a joke. Some one is using your name on this blog. China is not a developing Country. Did you know that America is heavily in debt with China? They practically owned U.S. China is coming full force towards the West? I > >

First, China is a developing country - that's how the US recognizes it and how they want to be recognized. It's not Beijing and Shanghai -- there's 800 million peasants of the 1.3 billion. They are rapidly developing though for sure. Second, > >

Imbecile what do you not shut your latrine mouth, when you have absolutely nothing constructive to say. A country that voted incompetent like Aristide and Preval would be much better by voting for someone of the caliber of Mr Lucas. As for your littl > >

Bernadette, Lucas did strike a nerve with what he said about China and democracy. It makes you think about what he has in store for Haiti. So far Lucas is just about the only one that makes some sense. Even Lucas now is questionable. Que faire? Mena > >
