Haiti - Politic : Round of consultation of Mayard-Paul in Latin America and the Caribbean 10/02/2012 09:44:52
Thursday, in the Dominican Republic, Mayard-Paul held informal meetings with his counterpart, Minister of the Interior and Police, Ramon Fadul, who is responsible for the country's Democratic Security Plan, and with Attorney General, Radhames Jimenez, who leads the Dominican Republic's Safe Neighborhood program. During the meetings, Mayard-Paul and Dominican officials discussed the possibility of collaborating between their respective ministries to design and implement a public security program inspired by the Dominican Republic's Safe Neighborhood or "Barrio Seguro" program. "In exploring regional best practices that can be applied in Haiti, we were impressed with the Democratic Security Plan implemented by our neighbors in the Dominican Republic," said Mayard-Paul, pointing out that in eight years, the plan succeeded in lowering crime rates throughout the country. Mayard-Paul's emphasis on national security is aligned with the overall vision of President Michel Martelly to develop Haiti as an equitable, independent and decentralized nation with a sustainable economy based on investments and job creation. To that end, the Martelly administration is working to create an appropriate legal framework to ensure democratic governance, rule of law and appropriate tax incentives. "Issues of national security are critical to our larger goals," Mayard-Paul remarked. "We want to ensure the best conditions for our foreign investors and for the welfare of the entire Haitian population." HL/ HaitiLibre
