In Haiti, “everybody left the country”
PORT AU PRINCE. – Haiti’s new Prime Minister on Wednesday called the lawmakers for a national and diplomatic responsibility to deal with Haitian migrants, since they’ve’ all “left the country” to Dominican Republic and other countries in the region.
“While Government echelons coordinate to take initiatives at the border level it’s necessary to reactivate the Haitian-Dominican mixed commission to deal with basic problems with our neighbors,” said Jean Max Bellerive in a Lower Chamber session.
After the Senate yesterday approved Bellerive’s plan of Government, the deputies are taking part in a session to decide on the new Prime Minister’s political program.
“It’s necessary to have a discussion in serenity (with Dominican leaders) to find institutional solutions," Bellerive said, whereas at the internal level, affirmed that "the creation of jobs is a start in solving the Haitian-Dominican problem, and establish the country’s security as well."
"Everybody left the country, because it doesn’t have a perspective. It’s necessary to restore the perspective so they (the migrants) know they can remain in the country and find jobs," the Prime Minister said.
He also noted that the lack of identification complicates Haitians’ migration. “All Haitians must have identity cards and not travel in a clandestine manner."

WOW what a improvement over last PM somebody with not just knowledge but a hell lot more common sense. Nice quote: “All Haitians must have identity cards and not travel in a clandestine manner." which has been the major problem of Haitians coming into DR. I'm like to hear them apply common sense to the problem.

I hope first his days(s) as PM are not being spent worrying about haitians that have left Haiti. Because if he is, rest assured that his stance is one of finding diplomatic/political support for their legalization in the countries where they reside illegally.
Lets remember that having millions of haitians returned to Haiti will only make it that much harder for haiti to fix itself. THEY DO NOT WANT THEIR COUNTRYMEN BACK. The same way that our biggest fear would be to have to keep them, their biggest fear is to have to take them back.
I believe the Haitian migration issue is OUR problem to deal with and unless the new PM is not helping us in taking them back, he should leave the issue alone and focus on initiatives that would make them WANT to go home and prevent the next generation from wanting to "travel in a clandestine manner"

About the article I hope he mean what he said. The most important thing he can start with is asking the UN for paper so they can start giving their populace birth certificate so we dont have to hear over and over they telling the international community that it is our fault the Haitians do not have a birth certificate.

Haitians have never denied the complexity of the migration issue, it has always been the government not being pro-active enough on doing their parts. As I see that people on here cannot even do basic and simple standardizing and evaluation of what is said in the article and it is sad. There is nothing that is ever good enough to many on here. The new PM is rendering acknowledgment of the migration issue, trying to take initiative in addressing the very same issue that many Dominicans on here allegedly claim to have a problem with, yet, he is still being lynched without taking into notice that he has just gotten the position only days ago.

I WONDER IF PEOPLE ON HERE HAVE EVEN READ THIS PART IN THE ARTICLE. SO, IS THIS TRUE WHAT IS SAID HERE?

The first thing he should do is to build roads to the most productive areas. For this they can ask Haitians in DR to come back and use their skills to their country's advantage. Lots of Hatians in DR have aquired many usefull skills that they can now implement at home for the betterment of it.

The fact that Mr Bellerive on his first day in office decided to address this issue which encompass so many of Haiti problems is a step in the right direction.
Let this be a warning to the legislative body,and the government as a whole there is no time to waist. Being that his previous post was minister of planification I'm sure he has his agenda laid out already. The Fact the process of firing the previous PM to Mr Bellerive getting his job only took 12days,where the previous process took five months speaks volume about the maturing of Haitian politic. Political stability is a key for us to move forward,noboby is willing to invest in a place deem unsteable.
As PM lets hope MR Bellerive keeps up the pressure on the int'l community to deliver on their promises as he have done on his previous post. As MLK had a dream ,may DR and Haiti become two prosperous country living side by side.

Here is an intersting editorial that I found in another paper...
Lo cierto es que no ha habido voluntad política para proteger nuestra frontera ni para enfrentar el chantaje y la extorsión de los que se benefician de la pobreza y explotación de ese pobre pueblo haitiano: la oligarquía del vecino país, las ONG’s domínico-haitianas, una cúpula militar corrompida de ambos países, contrabandistas de todo; vendedores de carbón y los comerciantes que explotan el mercado binacional con 500 millones de pesos al año. Ese “bloque de búsqueda” hizo, hace y hará todas las diabluras posibles para vivir de la miseria de ese “conglomerado humano” que es Haití. Quizás los que no se benefician, pero llevan la cantaleta, son los de la “izquierda burra” (la frase es del ex presidente brasileño Enrique Cardoso, sociólogo por demás), que aplican el internacionalismo mal digerido.

Cuando los haitianos sean igual en número a los dominicanos o sean una minoría considerable, reclamarán con más fuerza que ahora y por vías de hechos, más derechos, vendrá, pues, una guerra de secesión (reclamo de una parte del territorio) o la guerra total como en Kosovo, la guerra de colores, con la desventaja para nosotros de que ellos contarán con las cañoneras suministradas por los potencias que hoy financian sus ONG’s y la campaña de descrédito contra nuestro país. Por eso, Simón Bolívar fusiló al Gral. Manuel Piar, un mulato que con sus acciones desviaba la lucha anticolonial hacia la guerra de “colores” o de razas. Los dominicanos no son racistas: los racistas son los haitianos, pues no sólo odian a los mulatos haitianos porque no son “ano rojo”, sino, también a los dominicanos.

I have heard that before. I think would be good for Haitians to have a document to let the world know who they are, where and when they were born. But can somebody explain how to have a card equals to not travel in a clandestine manner." Or maybe all they need to enter DR is to produce an identity card, forget visa or any immigration requirement. They don't need anything else, so instead of through the mountains, they just cross the border posts and tell the guards, I have an ID and the right to come and stay here, so out of my way. Is that what a card means? Cards or not cards, they are Haitians and should abide by Dominican immigrations laws.
From: United States, Chicago, IL
A question about ID cards. Does anyone know if either Haiti or DR still has any native population that are not registered by the state (i.e. have birth certifcate, and possibly school or med records)?
I heard in another foum that not too long ago in DR it was still common for people in the countryside to wait weeks, months, or even years before registering children or in some cases the children being old enough to do it themselves. I don't know for sure about Haiti but if I were a betting man, I would bet that it wouldnt be difficult to find unregistered/undocumented whatever you want to call it Haitians in Haiti.
Thoughts?

It is true, in DR it still common for people in the countryside to wait even years before registering children. It is the intergenerational relation in under registration, where parents who are not registered can't register their children. The difference with Haitians is that they don't go anywhere claiming to have been born there or produce false documents or are help by NGO or priest to be fraudulently registered. About Haiti you would win the bet. The poorest Haitians don't have any documentation, that is why they cross the border and claim that they were born here and denied their documents because racism. Many Haitians deported are rejected by the borders authorities because they don't have an ID card, and therefore can't proof they are Haitians, although they only speak Creole and can provide the authorities with their families names and location.

Today in Haiti, as per Unicef, 30% of children do not have a birth certificate; due to the cost of civil registration and that many people do not consider civil registration something essential. There is an intergenerational relation in under registration, where parents who are not registered are less likely to register their children. Since 2005, with the elections in mind and the support of the OAS and CIDA, more than 4.2 million adults were registered in the National Identification Office (ONI), and provided with a National Identification Card that is a permanent identification document and recognized nationwide. These 4.2 million people, many of whom had no birth certificate before, are now legally recognized citizens and could vote in the elections.
