Haiti struggles to clear quake debris for rebuilding
|
Seven months after Haiti's devastating earthquake only a fraction of the huge volume of rubble generated has been cleared, but the issue is certainly nothing new. In February, Haiti's president Rene Preval predicted it would take "a thousand trucks moving rubble for a thousand days" to clear all the debris out of the capital. Some 1.5 million people are still living in makeshift camps despite tens of millions of dollars in aid pouring into the island-nation. International aid agencies told Al Jazeera's Imtiaz Tyab in Port-au-Prince that the Haitian government is to blame for the lack of cleanup. (Aug 15, 2010) |

Inside A Failed State - Haiti
|
November 2008 Just over a year ago Haiti was last hit by disaster. It was brought to its knees by a series of hurricanes that left the struggling country in turmoil. Perpetually in a state of collapse, even without the disasters. In late 2008 Haiti is lashed by powerful storms, leaving many dead. That disaster resonates today. Its like we have no government, a passer-by remarks. I dont understand how the average Haitian survives, says Joel Bortoue from the UN. Little could they know in just over a year it would happen again, this time killing the UNs top official and many others. Produced by SBS/Dateline Distributed by Journeyman Pictures |

Haitian Kompa Breakdance Popping by Robot Scorpion
|
A breakdance/popping performance at a football match in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, with kompa music. The song is called "Pran Poz Ou" by Carimi. The dancer goes by Robot Scorpion (you can hear his name announced at the end). The dance was during halftime at a match between Haitian companies in a tournament sponsored by Comme Il Faut (tobacco company). You see that the guy's t-shirt says Comme Il Faut with a big C (after he reverses it). It was the first match of 2007 season. The field can be seen just north of the eastern end of the airstrip in P-au-P. A better quality video can be viewed on Facebook: ucla.facebook.com |
