President Martelly Lays The First Stone for New Haiti Housing Project
Accompanied by former US President Bill Clinton, they laid the first stone for a new Haiti housing project in Zoranger, commune of Croix des Bouquets.
Bill Clinton says...
"When Mr. (Michel) Martelly was campaigning to become president . he said every family deserves strong, safe, affordable housing, and that we need to close the camps and open homes for the people of Haiti...
...If we do this housing properly, it will lead to whole new industries being started in Haiti, creating thousands and thousands of new jobs and permanent housing. Which means there will many more people able to afford the new houses."
Strong, affordable, durable, and earthquake resistant house!
According to the Montreal Gazette, the houses being built are supposed to be earthquake proof, capable of sustaining hurricane force winds and affordable. Made of steel, Styrofoam, cinder blocks and concrete, between 300 and 700 square feet in size... Most could be built in a matter of days and are supposed to last at least 70 years.
Huhhhh.... They are NOT FREE contrary to popular belief!
According to the Montreal Gazette, there is a price tags for these housed, they will be ranging from $10,000 to $35,000.
QUESTION:
There are a lot of people who are NOT just waiting for houses in Haiti, they are expecting a FREE HOUSE... Do you believe they will be taking this new as GOOD news?
