I reported earlier on a tripartite agreement which took place a couple of days ago as an aside to the UN General Assembly meeting between Secretary of State Clinton, French Minister of Foreign Affairs Kouchner and Haitian prime minister Jean Max Bellerive to rebuild a major hospital in Haiti's capital, Port-au-Prince.
The rebuilding and reconstitution of the island nation may take years. In the meantime, those that survived the calamitous January 2010 earthquake are eking out a living. Those that are engaged in national arts and crafts would normally need for tourists to begin arriving to Haiti once again; but the island is neither ready to welcome visitors, nor are visitors inclined to visit.
