| Haiti's New Year Day briefing |
| Extreme violence-issued Haiti President Rene Preval can once again easily be equated to an antiquated broken record, as they say in the vernacular. In a traditional New Year's day address he once again promised to consign to the archives of history the unprecedented problem of kidnapping for ransom - long a Damocles sword hanging over the future of Haiti, in the positive terms. So too he referred to rampant corruption in the Caribbean nation. However, as usual nothing was said about how exactly both terminal cancer-type problems and others will cease to be the ones to dominate Haitian lives daily. Yves A. Isidor |
