Haiti - Reconstruction : Ronald Baudin "Beyond Real" 19/09/2010 15:10:48 Recall that the government had announced in August a plan to rebuild the commercial center of the capital, with space for private companies, government buildings and thousands of homes. Following these statements, the government had declared of public utility [Decree of 2 September 2010] an area which must be freed of debris and in which interventions can not be done without government permission, which had not without cause discontent in some sectors. "If we do everything we can to improve the living conditions of the population, especially those living in tents, we also need to promote respect for private property" stated Minister who is also President of the Committee of facilitation for the rebuilding of the Port-au-Prince Center. For the minister, "the property is not an obstacle to the fight against the homeless people because the government is committed to provide land whenever there is a serious project to build housing." One believes to dream, why the Minister has so much trouble to provide land for tens of thousands of transitional structures pending due to lack of space for construction? Michel Forst, the independent expert of the United Nations on the human rights in Haiti, before his departure of Haiti had risen cons are threatened expulsions and reiterated its call on the government for a moratorium on the deportation of IDPs living in makeshift camps located on private land "have cannot make the decision to expel these people without a strategy of relocalization implemented by the government".
