Haiti Food Crisis
June 2008
Haiti is facing a major food crisis as riots break out in the capital Port-au-Prince. Five people have died, the Prime Minister was forced to resign and authorities fear the worst is yet to come!
All produce, even eggs, are imported here, leaving Haiti at the hands of the global market. Although blessed with fertile land, farmers have no machinery and are forced to use their hands. A farmer says "we cannot compete with other farmers who have the technology to back them". People are even eating mud cookies to relieve hunger. The Haitian government have turned to International crisis funds for immediate food relief but what will happen in the long run?

Deadly Food Riots in Haiti
ANCHOR:
Officials in southern Haiti say at least people are daed after demonstrations against rising food prices turned into riots. U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is calling on the international community and Haiti's leaders to keep up their efforts to bring stability to the country.
STORY:
Scores of Haitians rioted in the southern town of Les Cayes, blocking roads and looting stores.
Some also fired shots at UN peace-keepers and they fired back in response.
Haitians have been staging sporadic protests against the soaring cost of food for two days running.
Haiti is the poorest country in the Americas and prices for the basics - rice, beans and fruit - have rising by 50 per cent in the last year.
[Jean Marie, Student]:
"The government does not understand anything about the people. They do not listen to the people, all they do is manage the game of politics. First, it was about corruption, then about double nationality and now again about corruption... We want them to know we understand the game the government's playing; all we ask is to bring down food prices."
Prime Minister Jacques Edouard Alexis condemned the violence but said drug dealers had manipulated the demonstrations.
[Jacques Edouard Alexis, Haitian Prime Minister]:
"Do not let others tell you what is not right. For example, when they blame the UN for the high cost of living...the Haitian government does not spend any money on the UN's budget."
He announced $10 million will be put towards bringing down food costs and putting people to work.
Les Cayes is reported tense after the riots, with the UN bolstering its forces to the volatile country in a bid to restore calm.

Filmmaker Kevin Pina challenges the contemporary view of Haiti, revealing the hidden role of the 'international community' in Haitian politics. This provocative and lively film takes the viewer into parts of Haiti where few Western journalists dare to tread, and includes shocking footage of unreported human rights abuses, some which have been astonishingly conducted by UN forces. Pina's film stands out because it connects the tragic events in Haiti with what he assesses as foreign intervention designed to deter democracy. Learn the side of the Haiti coverage not seen in the corporate news media.
