Remember the 1980's - early 2000's and the dominance of Sony and Panasonic (Japan's electronic industry)?
Well now its LG and Samsung (South Korea's electronic industry)
How did that happen and what lessons could Martelly use:
For Martelly:
#1. Focus on science and technology education. (Do not be distracted by the NGOs pushing for Social Studies.)
#2. Get in tight with US based manufacturing. (Get away from the Aid The Poor folks and move in with the Capitalists.)
#3. Focus on your export business for Haitian companies. (That includes the rice industry; export it!)
#4. Focus on a few industries and develop firms with in them. Invest in them through total infrastructure support. (The Tool and Die Industry as an example).
Being told to create a panty sewing industry is not focusing on industries that will maximize profitable growth opportunities for Haiti.
#5. Capitalism is a GOOD thing. Create manufacturing giants that absorb much of the governments resources in making them so.
#6. Focus on organizations in the USA that are focused on the industries you choose for Haiti's future. (Technology, firms that use Tool and Die" services)
#7. Don't "give away the farm" in an effort to create "jobs, jobs, jobs". Negotiate deals that are in the long-term beneficial to Haitians. Not for your own short term gains.
#8. Focus on exports whether they can be used in Haiti or not. Exports will drive Haiti's economy.
#10. Let the "civilized nations" give up their foundry, tool and die, metal works operations to Haiti. Don't be tricked into the "Green Game" played by the Socialists. US doesn't want to make steel, great! You make it!
When you look at this in its totality you quickly see how the NGOs and their socialism agenda have been able to keep Haiti down while the Asian countries flourished.
NGOs/Democrat Party DEMAND "Green" = Bad for business.
NGOs/Democrat Party DEMAND a focus on Social Studies = Bad for business.
NGOs/Democrat Party DEMAND Haiti focus on "social stuff" (Gay rights, Women's Rights, etc) = Bad for business.
NGOs/Democrat Party DEMAND that the Haitian Gov't stay away from Capitalist's and the Republican Party = Bad for business
Martelly is walking step by step with the NGOs and away from Capitalism.
That is why he is BAD for Haiti regardless of how many people are fooled by his superficial nonsense that is a duplicate of all previous Haitian leaders since papa Doc.
