Haiti - Economy : Nearly 70% of borlette tenants refuse to pay their royalties
17/01/2019 14:18:39
Tuesday at a press conference, Margareth Fortuné, the Director General of the Haitian State Lottery (LEH) denounced the granting of false operating authorization issued by the National Association of Tenanciers of Borlette (ANTB), which only contribute to the spread of corruption.
Moreover, she deplores the owner borlettes who refuse to pay their taxes to the State, noting that out of nearly 400,000 borlettes , only 120,000 (30%) have paid their bills in the last two months. She estimates that this represents a shortfall each year for the State of about 4 and 5 billion gourdes.
Pointing the finger at the ANTB she asserts that 5 large borlette tenants get richer by ransoming the small owners and asks the authorities concerned to act and force the responsible for games of chance throughout the national territory, to contribute to the Haitian economy by paying their taxes to the Treasury.
