257 NGOs banned from operating in Haiti

The Haitian government has just revoked the operating license of 257 non-governmental organizations (NGOs) operating in Haiti.

According to an article release by newspaper Le Nouvelliste Friday, The Moise-Lafontant administration wants to link the programs of the NGOs and international agencies operating in Haiti with its priorities and the needs of the Haitian people.

Agiol Fleurant, head of the minister of planification says: These institutions must finance what the Haitian people need and NOT what they consider necessary.

A press release mentioning their of these organizations will be published in the media and in the official newspaper Le Moniteur, according to Fleurant.
