Haitian President Michel Martelly said today he does not want the United Nations peacekeeping mission to leave but to stay on to assist the impoverished country as his Government seeks to tackle the problems of education, jobs, the environment and the rule of law.
“Welcomed in the early days with relief these missions later run out of breath,” he told the General Assembly. “Why? Because, among other things, the expectations of host countries on the one hand are overblown and, on the other, these missions are unable to evolve, frozen as they are in inflexible mandates.

It reminds me of the way Haitian reacted about the Cholera brought in their country by the U.N. troops, in which many of those who probably were paid by the foreign people sided with with U.N. and tried to lay a pretext on the Vodou religious as the cause of the Cholera in Haiti despite all the facts from Haitian people and friends of Haiti in other countries were concluded that the U.N. troops were the real cause of the disease.
Also, we have the ones who are seeing themselves as just Creole speakers and Creole is their only language VS those who are hallucinating and think that they are part of French culture and their language is French. So, that's kind of government I think we have for now in 2011.
