Excerpts from Ms. Dieudonne Étienne Luma speech

"[...]

There is this, about 6 months, I was invited to the official launch ceremony of the training session which would take place on the following themes: Hotel and Catering and Tourist-accompanying guide https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-11604-haiti-tourism-things-are-moving-everywhere.html

[...] I saw the eyes of young crowned hopes, youth with sparkling smiles, young men and girls animated with an ardent desire to train and belong to the most promising sector of the country the tourism sector, so dear to the Minister of Tourism and Creative Industries, Stéphanie Balmir Villledrouin and the vector of economic development, who wants to make Haiti a country emerging in 2030.

Six months ago, you were in this room asking yourself a lot of questions asking yourself, without saying it perhaps if you could get there. Six months later, here you are with us to receive the fruits of your work, your efforts and sacrifices.

[...] Know that in this long route that could be a career, beyond all confidence you could place it in an individual and / or entity, you are not alone.No never be alone. Always carry with you your sense of duty and a job well done, attention to professionalism, ethics anddeontology of your profession, integrity, honesty, and 'the principles of the Great Cathedrals' that will allow you take into account every detail in the construction of your personality, which will give you an incommensurate authority.

Be proud of your trade. Because between the Minister who governs the state and the craftsman who participate in its prosperity by the work of his hands, there is only one step. The work of one may seem more important than the other, but well done, the moral merit is the same.

[...] to you dear young people I say, continued success [...]"
