held in New York. At this conference, it has been stated that Haitian officials will ask for $11.5 Billion in reconstruction help. Clinton and Bush were seen greeting survivors at the Champ de Mars, the nations mall, which was housing 60,000 homeless people. Helping the people of Haiti is all the American people want to do in their time of need, but it is clear that the nation needs to do more to their government than just recover. Whats to say that any large portion of the $11.5 billion is going directly to the betterment of the people of Haiti rather than simply sustaining a government that was already weak in the first place? The U.S. is hopeful that this nation can recover from the tragic events that occured, but it is clear that the government of Haiti has a lot of rethinking to do.
