Haiti - Economy : Restrictions on transport of Dominican products, Wilson Laleau persists... 23/09/2015 11:14:05
He specified that "the import ban by land, of a set of products from the Dominican Republic will remain in force until the Haitian government manages to set up the necessary structures to ensure the control of its borders." The day before the Haitian Chancellor Lener Renauld, had said "The products concerned by the note of the Ministry of Finance have not been prohibited on the territory of Haiti, but rather changed route." The economist Kesner Pharel, CEO of Group croissance, recognizes that in the short term, the measure will affect the prices of the products concerned with a rise in the local market, which could become increasingly rare. But he is convinced that in the medium and long term, this decision will encourage the revival of domestic production to meet the needs of the Haitian population. However, this decision, which imposes restrictions on trade, arouses strong reactions of traders associations in Haiti of the border area of Ouanaminte, who are protesting against this decision likely to paralyze their activities in favor of large traders. After these associations, it is now the President of the North East Chamber of Commerce, Jean Fritz to believe that the new measure from the Ministry of Economy, risks destroying an entire class of traders particularly in border areas. He calls on the authorities to ensure instead, better control of the border crossing point instead of penalizing entrepreneurs to other entrepreneurs. At our neighbors, Alberto Navarro representative of the European Union in the Dominican Republic said on Tuesday "The restrictions imposed by the Haitian government to the import by land of 23 Dominican products will generate scarcity and higher prices of these products in the Haitian market," pointing out that the new provisions will cause an increase of about 40% of the price of transportation of goods concerned and that, ultimately, it is the poorest people in Haiti who will pay the price. Jean Alain Rodriguez, the Director of the Center for Import and Export of the Dominican Republic (Centro de Exportación e Importación de la República Dominicana - CEI-RD) with such a decision "Haiti is going to commit suicide."
