Charismatic pop star-turned-president Michel Martelly takes over Haiti on Saturday promising to rebuild its earthquake-devastated capital, develop the long-neglected countryside and build a modern army.
Haiti will not develop alone, anyone with a brain runs away.
A president won't make a difference in this morbid political culture.
If Haiti does want to stabilize, it's best if they emulates high growth African nations such as Ghana, Namibia, Botswana, or Ethiopia. They offer a decent path to success for a nation with no industrial base or sizable educated middle or elite class.
Well even though Haiti now has a prezzie with some skills, unlike many places. If nothing else the'll have great kareoke session in parliment.
