Restore Haiti's Stature Now

- JamaicaObserver.com: "The people in Haiti's neighbouring countries watched the horror unfold with particular poignancy because, but for the grace of God, it could have been any of them. They well know that, for just as how Haiti could not have been prepared to cope with a catastrophe of such magnitude, neither could they. This was not only a disaster that was emotionally upsetting in the scale of its human carnage and destruction, it was also very close to home.
The reaction of the Government of the second poorest country of the Caribbean Community and Common Market (Caricom) was exemplary and heart-warming. Guyana's President Bharrat Jagdeo summoned a meeting of leaders of various groups, including the leader of the main Opposition political party, Robert Corbin, and announced that Guyana would provide US$1 million in immediate assistance."
