Local Governments Needed In Haiti and Central Government Needs To Downsize

The only way to economically develop Haiti, the government needs to use Toussaint Louverture's model of self-government in all provinces.

First, the government needs to rename the Delegates as Governors and make this post an electoral position.

Ask for qualified and experienced people in business administration such as accounts, certified in Human Resources, Master in Public Administration, finance, marketing, law, management and more to name a few to run for this position.

Make it open to all to all qualified Haitians in Haiti and Haitians overseas so we can get qualified people to serve on board.

Second, the government needs to process with local census to inventory all economic resources and appraise them in order to tax them. All housing owners should pay taxes, all school owners should pay taxes and the government should license everything.

Gun owners must be registered an pay fees and all educated field should be licensed too. All economic activities in any provinces must be taxed and the amount collected will serve to pay local employees and any amount left over will be used to strengthen infrastructure such as well paved roads, public schools and security forces as well.
Third, the government needs to create a Board of Governors to report to the president.

Fourth, the government needs to downsize the staff in the central government so those people could run for local offices.

Downsizing the central government will eliminate the republic of port au prince and the budgetary support from the United States.

We can develop Haiti and we have the potential to do so. We can create several thousands of jobs in all Haiti's provinces by establishing self-governing local governments as required by Toussaint Louverture, the founding father of the world self-government of the most advanced societies in the world.

Good governance and self-government ideas came from the Black Spartacus named Toussaint and as Haitians we never take a chance to go by his principles to put our house in order.

Please Martelly listen to me, people have voted for you to change Haiti and not to keep those mulatto bureaucrats in port-au-prince as instituted by Petion.

The mulatto's administrative power is so mediocre and it failed Haiti and it continues to fail Haiti miserably.

Martelly reduces the size of your big government by closing those ministers down. Please Martelly have those secretaries oversee those autonomous provinces instead of overseeing a centralized government filled with a bunch of bureaucrats.

Martelly please reduce bureaucracy in Haiti and we have elected you for those changes.

In the Caribbean Region, most governments downsize their staff and their private sectors create most of the jobs too. Martelly looks what is going around you to change Haiti.

The Dominican Republic has done it 25 years ago and they made all provinces autonomous by having a small number of employees under the government budget, you can do it too. Get those bureaucrats out of your payroll and allow them to run for local offices around the country.

You can only keep 60 employees under the government payroll if you have 10 ministers.

For each minister, you will need 50 employees to run their offices and you will free the country from this dependency it has found itself in. Martelly listens to our voices to save the country and you can do so. Those bureaucrats can go run for local offices in the country and they can become the new governors of those provinces if they are really qualified and competent to be elected as governors, mayors, district attorneys and so on.
Fifth, downsize your diplomacy and get those retired diplomats and their families out of those embassies because they don't really serve our needs overseas.

Create 5 regional embassies with smaller personels and the passport services back to Haiti.

Martelly, please listen to our voices to free Haiti.

You can do it and we count on you to eradicate those bureaucrats within Haiti's all public institutions.
