Oh boy, Caricom a failed enterprise finds itself in even more problems. Haiti of all countries is in charge.
Caricom fini! LOL
CARICOM bones are showing, please git it a proper burial.
When you are feed up with something just give it to the Haitians. End of story. I think Caricom should stay in Port-au-Prince and never return.
What is the matter with us? Why can't we unite for a common good? Why do we think that we are better than others when we face the same challenges? Why did the West Indies Federation fail? Why are we bent on being followers than leaders? Why can't we organize for our selves? Why can't we have interisland commerce? Where are we heading with our island attitudes?
What is wrong with us? 1973- now
Carifailure!!
Haiti have had 200 years to get its act together. Failure does not begat success.
The CARICOM Comedy of Caricature is alive and well. But Saint Lucians are not laughing!
The bullshit continues unabated.
But what riles me most is that the Saint Lucian taxpayer is paying for this revolting political and continuing theatre of pure unadulterated crap!
It is time to have our departure from CARICOM part of the election platform. It's time for us to get the hell out!
The same reason the West Indian Federation failed is the same reason CARICOM has also failed, it's big vs small states.
The solution is to have three different groupings:
1) Haiti, Jamaica and Dominican Republic should form their union.
2) The OECS, Barbados and the other small Islands including Martinique and Guadeloupe.
3) Trinidad, Guyana, Suriname and Belize.
With a population of a little over 10 million people, Haiti is by far CARICOM's largest market; and instead of seeing the glass half-full, we are allowing our prejudice eyes to see it half-empty.
Could you imagine we selling bananas to just 500'000 Haitians? Or exporting Pitons, Heinekens, Barrons Ketchup and Hotsauce, etc.?
Haiti might be a blessing in disguise; so, if we can embrace Taiwan and China, we can certainly embrace our Haitian brothers and sisters too.
All wise and up-to-date students of international business know this:
a) in the formation of trade relationships and partnerships, there must be something to trade -- even this means barter on a government-to-government, or a company-to-country exchange in either direction.
b) success depends on the availability of markets (non-existence, and the removal of barriers to trade and the associated exchanges)
c) markets depend on the ability to purchase, or more directly, clearly the ability to pay for the goods and services -- not just satisfying your wants -- you need effective demand (wants plus the abiity to pay for those wants), meaning your buying power.
d) stabiity of and in the target market (political, social and economic)
Invariably, HAITI fails all of the above.
Selling bananas to Haiti? What a assinine idea, if I ever heard one!
Besides all the question marks about the four issues mentioned above, can Haiti not produce all the bananas that it will ever want?
More foolishness again. Can you ever compare the rise of a middle-class with its purchasing power on Mainland China, and wealthy and the already-existing middle-class in Taiwan, with the uncertainty in the Haitian market?
Compaed to China, why are US businesses not rushing to establish trade relationships with Haiti?
Hey, idiot! Is China part of CARICOM?
Then why the hell is it that we want to trade with that country, even when there is chance of a snowball in Hell that it will ever become part of CARICOM? Or just maybe, it might serve as a donor country to the funding (financing) of the Caribbean Development Bank for onlending with soft-loan funds to member Caribbean Countries?
Saint Lucians can talk crap!
A country that can't even feed itself will buy money to buy Barons and Piton from St Lucia???
Chops!
"A country that can't even feed itself will buy money to buy Barons and Piton from St Lucia???
Chops!"

Your Anti-Haitian stance would not permit you to see Haiti in the positive.
Out of a population of 10 million, there are more than 500,000 rich Haitians who can more than afford St.Lucian bananas, Pitons, ketchup, etc.
There are more rich people in Haiti than the population of St.Lucia, Barbados, St.Vincent and Grenada combined. So for the two idiots above, learn to embrace your own people.

Show us letters of credit facilitating the export of 20 metric tonnes of bananas to Haiti, or even a smaller container load of Pitons to Haiti. Then we will begin to believe that you have even a smattering of knowledge or an inkling about what the hell you are talking about.
Pleasea tell us the names of the corresponding banks involved too.
If not, bark your crap in a rumshop. This is where such idle talk belongs.
