Haiti - Politic : Between hope and suspicion, a victory that divides... 07/04/2011 10:58:43
The economist Camille Chalmers, from the Plateforme Haïtienne de Plaidoyer pour un Développement Alternatif (PAPDA) considers that the victory of Michel Martelly, will see the implementation of a policy, which will be the expansion of options that have governed the country over years. He believes that the new President has no "answer" to obtain the respect of fundamental rights of citizens, adding that Michel Martelly govern "under the dictates of the international community." Chalmers criticized the President elected for the absence of "concrete answers to the fundamental rights of citizens." Paul Evans, spokesman of the Alternative political platform invites to adopt "an attitude of observation before deciding on the nature of the new regime." Observe those who want to support [Martelly] and those who have reservationsn to see if these people will mobilize in the opposition, adding that "Everyone must act according to its conscience." He says that it's necessary to respect the choice of the people and hopes that the new President of Haiti, will be able to meet his responsibilities and be surrounded by skilled men and women as collaborators. Chavannes Jean Baptiste, leader of the Peasant Movement Papaya (MPP) hope now "that Michel Martelly meet his promises," According tro him the new president "should clearly indicate his willingness to support the agricultural sector compared to industrial agriculture." More categorically, Jean Baptiste Osnel, national spokesman of the peasant movement Tet Kole Ti Peyizan Ayisyen (Haitian Union of Small Farmers) the arrival to the power of Martelly will change nothing "There will no change in the life of the population." Members of the South Florida Haitian community are also shared in the victory of Michel Martelly. "The people voted and this should be respected [...} this is the person that the people elected to run the country," said Charles Robes, Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of Miami [a community of half a million faithful]. He is convinced that the Haitians "must seize this opportunity " and ignore [until we know more] the opinions that say that the new president has few competencies to direct the destiny of Haiti, expressing his disagreement with those who argue that this election will polarize Haitian society. An opinion not shared by Jean Robert Lafortune, president of the Haitian-American Grassroots Coalition, Haitian activist and member of the diaspora in the United States who said after the election "this is not a good day for Haiti," recalling that "... this election has been imposed by the UN and the U.S.," for the activist, these institutions have forced the will of the nation and we can not speak of a sovereign nation or a Democratic victory, because these elections "have been paid and purchased by the United States." adding on an ironic tone "This election is a comedy, won by the comedian Martelly, who knows how to play"...
