92 young Haitian entrepreneurs from the ten geographical departments of the country will find financing to start their own business, President Jovenel said.

"All the young people of Haiti are asking for is more chances and people to show the way to an financial independence," President Jovenel said. "They are not asking for much more than that."

To the rich people in the financial sector, the young people are asking for help. They want to get them away from the road to violence that seems to be the only path these days. "Let's get together and help them get them away from the road to despair and uncertainty."

The president asks all the people doing politics in Haiti and members of the private sector to think about all the young people in Haiti have no choice but to leave the country.

"Let us give them a chance," he asked of them. "The young people of Haiti are asking for accountability and it time we all assumed our responsibilities towards them," the president said.
