Haiti speech
Haiti speech
Haiti. We’re an island. A Caribbean luxury exploding with opportunities and people willing to achieve. Taken down a manic path from the catastrophic earthquake and plague of natural disasters that disrupted the usual smooth flowing nature of our land. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake was soon to be known for a downhill run for our country, yet we have held up to achieve the best our nation can. With the help from other countries we are sailing forward and building up our nation to become a powerful ally to other countries.
As Haiti, we offer a radiant landscape, home to a lush diversity of inhabitants who have sighted the shimmering opportunities of our country. The Train that has pushed through hard weather, wreckage and desolation is coming to its next stop again. A marker point at which we can start to develop, upwards, outward to form a sustainable worldwide community that will eradicate the problems that once faced us. Help us take these Development goals into the future and carry on improving. We have made significant progress towards our MDGs. Distinct progress made in the areas of education, gender equality, the fight against HIV AIDS, allowing Haiti to get closer to them.
Here’s the story of Pierre. Like most Haitians, Mathias Pierre grew up profoundly poor, without electricity or running water. Today, he’s a millionaire who runs a computer business. The people of Haiti may not start with much but they can achieve higher than expected. We would like this opportunity to be for every one of our citizens to have a better standard of living and greater prospects.

Hello,
This reads very well.
Two editing points:
– you repeat the word countries on your first paragraph;
Your second paragraph should read
– A marker point at which we can start to develop upwards and outward to form a sustainable worldwide community that will eradicate the problems that once faced us.
Some points to develop:
– Haiti was the first country to break free of slavery and declare themselves a republic. The man responsible was Toussaint L’overture. I think I remember reading that his father was a doctor. Toussaint was an educated man who could no longer bear the injustice of his people. He fought against England and France.
– The Arcade Fire are from Haiti and have donated a high percentage of their profit to charities dedicated to rebuilding Haiti.
– I once saw Tony Benn talk about Haiti; research that.
Hope this helps,
Me North
