HOW CLINTON'S POLICIES CRIPPLED HAITI'S AGRICULTURAL SECTOR
US President Bill Clinton admitted to destroying Haiti's agricultural sector, particularly its rice industry, in the early 2000s due to policies championed by the administration.
According to Bertrhude Albert, CEO of a Haitian NGO called @P4Hglobal, small farmers' rice harvests sat unsold in warehouses for months because they could not compete with US rice imports due to a lowered tariff. This policy forced more than 90,000 Haitian farming families out of business.
Even today, Haiti, once known as the 'Pearl of the Antilles' for its rich, fertile soil, has not recovered.
Listen to @bertrhude break down the Clinton administration's economic bullying.

@Environment_Ke @MoICTKenya @NAssemblyKE you can watch these. These policies given by West will not go well for Kenya. Please run away from the west for safety of our country. Their history isn't worth having the so called partnerships.

This is what happens when
/search?q=#Caribbean countries accept "Aid",
its s common practice across the Caribbean &
/search?q=#African continent. Accepting Aid is contingent on them setting rules thus flooding your matter with their goods and setting the rates.

that was 14 years ago , ! Obama colonized Libya 12 years ago
Africans were well aware of the CIA , since the 60s SO WHY DID 54 NATIONS INSPIRED BY THE HAITIAN REVOLUTION AND 30 ASSISTED BY GADDAFI SIT AND DO NOTHING FOR THE PAST TEN YEARS TO HELP BOTH NATIONS??

Another ridiculous policy is for decades US subsidized sugar cane growers in Florida. We can easily obtain less expensive sugar cane from the West Indies. This would help them grow their economies and save the American consumer $$$. Sugar is not a strategic commodity.

I grew up in Little Haiti in the 70s ! Haitians were profoundly Pan African to me as an American , to Africans and all Carribbeans! Gaddafi had the choice to be Pan Arab but chose to be Pan African instead! So why no help for either to this day Haiti or Libya from Africa ?

So it's America's fault that America's rice was cheaper than Haiti's rice?
