Monday, the President Michel Martelly, accompanied of former Senator Joseph Lambert and of Senators Wencesclass Lambert and Edwin Zenny [Edo], was on tour in the Department of South-East where he visited successively, the towns of Baie d'Orange, of Mare Briole, of Calumette and in the town of Belle-Anse to assess by himself, the living conditions of people and see the real state of road infrastructure in this department.

In the different localities where he stopped, the President Martelly received a very warm welcome from the population who came en masse to applaud him and bring him his claims whose the principal is the construction of the road from Peredo to Belle-Anse.

During this tour, the President of the Republic has proceeded to the distribution of 10,000 kits food kits and, as a sign of encouragement to the livestock sector, has symbolically handed over more than a hundred young goats to various community associations in the Municipality of Belle-Anse.

In the town of Belle-Anse, isolated because of lack of roads, where he was welcomed by members of the municipal cartel and the deputies of neighboring constituencies, the claims were more numerous but, as has been able to see the Head of State,still had, as a backdrop the construction of the road but also the construction of a hospital and a high school and the modernization of the fisheries sector, pillar of the economy of the region, are also priorities for the Bellansois.

The Head of State, who refuses to make empty promises, has nevertheless promised to intervene with the Minister of Public Works, so that appropriate efforts be undertaken to improve the condition of the road, waiting to find the necessary funds for the construction of this access road, whose course existed for decades.

The President Martelly, stressed that all the beauty and the wealth of the Borough of Belle-Anse are useless, if they do not benefit the population. The development of this zone of country must necessarily pass through its opening up and the enhancement of its agricultural resources and tourism, asking the various elected South East, to be united in their desire to bring real change in their department, for the wellness of their populations.
