here we go again... already?
News report from Miami Herald reinforcing rumors that the Haitian prime minister is on the verge of being ousted. According to several Haitians I deeply respect, Michelle Pierre-Louis is(was?)a ray of hope in a largely corrupt and ineffective government. It is almost laughable that members of the Haitian senate would accuse her of being ineffective given then until only a few months ago 1/3 of the senate seats were unfilled due to more than 18 months of election delays. How can a PM lead a non-existent government? As the article suggests, accusations against her likely have more to do with political wrangling/positioning for next year's presidential election than what she has/has not accomplished over the last year. Sigh - time will tell.
