Haiti - USA : Ambassador Sison calls professionals of the Diaspora to more commitment
At the annual awards ceremony for the top 20 young professionals of the Haitian-American Chamber of Commerce in Florida, US Ambassador to Haiti Michèle Sison called for more commitment from the Haitian diaspora, saying to a group of young professionals in Miami that businesses in Haiti can benefit from their mentorship and knowledge as successful entrepreneurs.

"They need your help, your advice in order to scale up their enterprises to the next level [...] Together, you are a strong force that could help shape the Haitian-American partnership in the years to come. We want to partner with Haiti in that."

Speaking to the public of Haitian professionals in the diaspora, Sison acknowledged that Haiti could do more to attract foreign and domestic investment, saying that many people with whom she spoke, said the Haitian government needed to improve the ease of Doing Business in Haiti by strengthening contract performance and contractual liability "Donor support to help Haiti with its development and broader social and economic needs is not enough [...] Haiti also needs increased domestic and foreign investment."

indicating that this is one of the first conversations she intends to conduct with the new Moïse/Céant Government.

In addition to highlighting diaspora participation, Sison touted some of the domestic revenue mobilization programs undertaken by the United States in Haiti to encourage elf-reliance and resiliency in Haiti. Among them, working with Haitian institutions, such as municipalities, to increase the revenue streams of the government through the collection of property tax and business tax https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-24225-haiti-news-zapping.html
