Doing Business in Haiti - What is your Experience?
Haiti Open For Business
The other countries I've been to, you can rent a place, start a business, and the success and failure of the business depends on your experience as a business person and nothing else...
At home, in Haiti, I am getting the impression that there is another factor... The one people don't like to talk about... If you're Haitian you know what I am talking about.
There is an unspoken fear factor that makes people quit before they even get started.
I understand that many people are afraid of everything and, in Haiti, it is so easy to blame the unknown that you are almost guaranteed to fail in any business if you are the kind of person who believes in the Boogeyman and you dare to try.
But you know what's funny, there businesses, big and small, all over the country. Either these business man and women are not afraid or... "Yo Granmoun" as the average Haitian will say...
What do you think about this?
What advice can you give to a young man or woman in Haiti who is so afraid to do start a business fearing that the competition will eat them alive?
What is your ezperience in doing business in Haiti?

I would love to come to Haiti and teach a few classes to the high school students on Social Media, STEAM careers, Marketing and Branding.
There is so much potential in this wonderful country that business owners and educators need to give back and help the future leaders and business leaders.
As an educator teaching Educational Technology and STEAM how can I visit to spend some time to share my knowledge and wisdom?
This image is not HAITI but the mere critic or false evidence of a few. Thus, it can not be part of any portrait from the course of doing business in Haiti.

Peyi a pa guin justice ladan'n, sa ou pa jan'm wè nan pays etranger se sa ouap wè Haiti, sa bay moun degoutance min'm pou visite pays yan alevoi pou tal investi nan yon tel pays.
