I predict that a Hillary supporter will come on your thread and say that you can't believe what the Haitians say.

VCS Mining and its wholly owned subsidiary, Delta Societe Miniere S.A. are pleased to announce the awarding of a gold mining exploitation permit issued by the Haitian Government for its Morne Bossa project. This is one of two permits issued today, the first permits of this kind issued in over 5 decades. “We would like to thank President Martelly, Prime Minister Lamothe, and especially the Director General of the Bureau of Mines, Mr. Remarais, for their cooperation, vision and commitment to the development of Haiti’s natural resource base,” commented VCS CEO Angelo Viard. “The Government’s commitment to responsible development of the Country’s vast natural resource base will be a major contributor to economic development, employment and the welfare of the Haitian people.”
At a conference in March 2010, U.N. countries pledged to donate $5.3 billion over two years and a total of $9.9 billion over three years or more. The money was to be deposited with the World Bank and distributed by an internationally controlled fund to be co-chaired by Bill Clinton and Jean-Max Bellerive, then the Haitian Prime Minister.[44] The Interim Haiti Reconstruction Commission (IHRC) was subsequently created by the executive order of Haitian President Preval to exist for a period of 18 months beginning on April 21, 2010.[45]
...
Feeling that they functioned solely as rubber stamps, the Haitian members complained of being “completely disconnected from the activities of the IHRC”; given no background information on the projects they were supposed to fund; given no time to “read, nor analyze, nor understand- and much less respond intelligently- to projects submitted”; no follow-up on the previously approved millions in funds; and not knowing the names of IHRC consultants nor their respective tasks.” As if to prove their point, the IHRC meeting held in December 2010 in the Dominican Republic, continued despite the absence of co-chair and Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive.[53]

Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton announced a fund-raising venture for Haiti on Jan. 16, 2010. As of October 2011, the fund had received $54 million in donations. It has partnered with several Haitian and international organizations. Though most of its work appears to be admirable, it has donated $2 million to the construction of a Haitian $29 million for-profit luxury hotel.
