Haiti President Preval Asks UN To Switch MINUSTAH To BUILD-U-STAH!

In Haiti, we need bulldozers and engineers, not tanks, and soldiers - At the United Nations yesterday, outgoing Haitian president Rene Preval said that there has been a military presence for 11 years in a country with no war [HAITI].

MINUSTAH Should Be Transformed To BUILD-U-STAH...

"Tanks, armored vehicles and soldiers should have given way to bulldozers, engineers, more police instructors, experts in support to justice and to the penitentiary system," President Preval says

Haiti is not at war, Haiti is a country is under construction!

"Peacekeeping operations did not quickly enough adapt to the new situation," President Preval says

Haiti's problem is under-development, the president said according to AFP

QUESTION:

11 year Huh??? Danm... It's been 11 years already?

President Preval spent five years as president, WHY is asking MINUSTAH to trade their big guns for big shovels now that he is leaving?

Why did he not ask that of them before?

Are we to expect a new BUILD-U-STAH in Haiti anytime soon?

Commenting on Preval's request is a waste of time. We ought to redirect this energy and take this momentum and grow away from the Preval era.THe time has come for Haitians to begin thinking big and begin to ask Hatians for Haiti's needs.

We need not to continue to look up to the UN or these countries who see us as a country of beggars, helpless and miserable.The time has come for us to want good schools for our teachers to learn to teach our children, water purification systems and power plants for electricity in our homes in the country side and for our factories; government import of heavy equipment and affordable loans to utilize these equipments and develop the agriculture;beautiful beaches and resort hotels for the diaspora to come and spend thus supporting the economy; a national health care to combat disease and make the "Gryo and banann peze" clean again on the sidewalk;
Enough with the Preval and his mentality of little poor country...

He is right, But why NOW.

He mean he doesn't need them anymore to secure him, while he is stealing the people and conuntry money, because he doesn't need them to stop the protest against all his wrong doing,

That's
