ʻO Port Au Prince, Haiti - Kidnappings, gang violence, trafficking drug, corrupt police, flaming road blockades.
ʻO nā hōʻike mai ka ʻāina ʻilihune loa o ka Hemisphere Komohana ua lawa ia e hoʻokaʻawale i ka poʻe huakaʻi huakaʻi.
Akā, e like me ka ʻōlelo a ka poʻe loea palekana a me nā luna o ka United Nations peacekeeping mission ma Port-au-Prince, ʻaʻole ʻoi aku ka ʻino o Haiti ma mua o nā ʻāina ʻē aʻe ma Latin America.
"He moʻolelo koʻikoʻi ia," wahi a Fred Blaise, ka ʻōlelo a ka pūʻali koa UN ma Haiti. "ʻAʻole ʻoi aku ka pōʻino o Port-au-Prince ma mua o nā kūlanakauhale nui. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hele i New York a hopu ʻia a paʻa i ka pū. Pēlā nō i nā kūlanakauhale ma Mexico a i ʻole Brazil.
Ua hoʻopau ke kiʻi maikaʻi ʻole o Haiti i kāna ʻoihana, nona ka ʻoihana mākaʻikaʻi i hoʻonui ʻia i kēia manawa i kaupalena ʻia i nā limahana kōkua, nā mea mālama maluhia, a me nā diplomats.
Akā hōʻike ka ʻikepili UN e hiki i ka ʻāina ke lilo i mea palekana loa ma ka ʻāina.
Wahi a ka UN peacekeeping mission, aia he 487 mau pepehi kanaka ma Haiti i ka makahiki i hala, a i ʻole ma kahi o 5.6 no 100,000 poʻe. ʻO kahi noiʻi hui pū ʻana o UN-World Bank i ka makahiki 2007 i manaʻo ʻia ka nui o ka pepehi kanaka o ka Caribbean ma 30 no 100,000, me Jamaica e hoʻopaʻa inoa ana ma kahi o ʻeiwa manawa o ka nui o nā pepehi kanaka - 49 pepehi kanaka no 100,000 poʻe - e like me nā mea i hoʻopaʻa ʻia e UN ma Haiti.
Ma 2006, ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ka Dominican Republic ma mua o ʻehā mau manawa i ka nui o nā pepehi kanaka ma mua o Haiti - 23.6 no 100,000, e like me ka Central American Observatory on Violence.
"ʻAʻole nui ka nui o ka hana ʻino [ma Haiti]," wahi a Gen. Jose Elito Carvalho Siquiera, ka luna alakaʻi mua o Brazil i ka pūʻali UN ma Haiti. "Inā hoʻohālikelike ʻoe i nā pae o ka ʻilihune ma ʻaneʻi me ko São Paolo a i ʻole nā kūlanakauhale ʻē aʻe, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka hana ʻino ma laila."
Ua hōʻea ʻia ka misionari mālama maluhia UN, i kapa ʻia ʻo Minustah, i Iune 2004, ʻekolu mahina ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o nā pūʻali koa US i ka Pelekikena mua ʻo Jean-Bertrand Aristide i ʻApelika ma waena o kahi kipi kipi.
ʻO ke aupuni kūʻokoʻa de facto, i kākoʻo ʻia e UN, ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, Farani, a me Kanada, ua hoʻomaka i kahi hoʻopaʻapaʻa kūʻē i ka poʻe kākoʻo o Mr. Nā mea mālama maluhia UN.
I kēia manawa, ua hoʻonui ka nalu o nā kidnappings i nā ʻāʻī, me Minustah i hoʻopaʻa inoa i 1,356 ma 2005 a me 2006.
“Pīhoihoi ka poʻe ʻaihue i nā mea a pau no ka mea ʻaʻole i hana ʻia i ka wā ma mua," wahi a Mr. Blaise. "Eia naʻe, ke hoʻohālikelike ʻoe i ka nui o nā kidnapping ma ʻaneʻi, ʻaʻole wau e manaʻo he ʻoi aku ia ma mua o nā wahi ʻē aʻe."
I ka makahiki i hala aku nei, ua hoʻomaikaʻi maikaʻi ʻia ka palekana ma muli o ka emi ʻana o ka nui o nā kidnappings ma kahi o 70 pakeneka, ʻāpana o ka hoʻomaikaʻi holoʻokoʻa o ka palekana ma lalo o ka Pelekikena René Préval, i koho ʻia ma ka ʻāina ʻo Feberuari 2006. Akā ma mua o kēia mahina, ua hele nā tausani o nā mea hōʻike i nā alanui ma ʻO Port-au-Prince e kūʻē i ka piʻi ʻana o nā ʻaihue. Ma ka liʻiliʻi o 160 mau kānaka i kāʻili ʻia i kēia makahiki, e like me nā mākaʻi Haitian a me UN, hōʻike ʻo Reuters. I ka makahiki 2007 a pau, 237 poʻe i ʻaihue ʻia, wahi a ka hōʻike.
A i ʻApelila, hele nā tausani o nā kānaka i ke alanui e koi i nā kumukūʻai meaʻai haʻahaʻa, e hoʻouna ana i nā kiʻi o nā kaʻa ahi a me nā mea hoʻolei pōhaku a puni ka honua.
Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole i lohe ʻia ke kani ʻana o ka pū ma Port-au-Prince, a he kakaikahi ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana i nā haole. I nā mahina i hala iho nei, ua piha nā mokulele ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa mai Miami me nā mikionali Kalikiano.
Wahi a kekahi poʻe nānā i ka wā i ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka paʻa ʻole, ua kaupalena ʻia ka hana ʻino i kekahi mau slums Port-au-Prince.
"Inā ʻoe e hoʻohālikelike iā Haiti me Iraq, i Afghanistan, a me Rwanda, ʻaʻole mākou e ʻike ʻia ma ka pae like," wahi a Patrick Elie, he kākau ʻōlelo pale mua e alakaʻi ana i ke komisina aupuni no ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi pūʻali palekana hou.
"He moʻolelo haunaele ko mākou, kahi i ʻike ʻia e ka paʻa ʻole politika," wahi a Mr. Elie. "Akā, koe wale nō ke kaua i loaʻa ai ko mākou kūʻokoʻa a me ko mākou kūʻokoʻa mai Farani, ʻaʻole i ʻike ʻo Haiti i kahi kiʻekiʻe o ka hana ʻino e like me ka mea i hana ʻia ma ʻEulopa, ʻAmelika, a me nā ʻāina ʻEulopa ma ʻApelika a me Asia. .”
ʻO Viva Rio, he hui hōʻemi hoʻomāinoino ma Brazil i hele mai i Haiti ma ke noi a ka UN, i mālama ʻia i Malaki 2007 e hōʻoiaʻiʻo i nā pūʻulu kaua ma Bel Air a me nā wahi e pili ana i ke kūlanakauhale e haʻalele i ka hana ʻino no ke kūʻai ʻana i nā haʻawina ʻōpio. "He mea hiki ʻole ke noʻonoʻo ʻia ma Rio," wahi a Rubem Cesar Fernandes, ke alakaʻi o Viva Rio.
ʻAʻole e like me Brazil, ʻōlelo ʻo ia, ʻaʻole liʻiliʻi ke komo ʻana o nā pūʻulu slum o Haiti i ke kālepa lāʻau. "I kēia manawa ma Haiti, ʻoi aku ka makemake o ka maluhia ma mua o ke kaua," wahi āna. "Eia kēia manaʻo e pili ana iā Haiti me ka pōʻino, ma mua o nā mea a pau, ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. Me he mea lā e hoʻonāukiuki ʻo Haiti i ka makaʻu mai nā keʻokeʻo ʻAmelika ʻAmelika. "
ʻO Katherine Smith kekahi ʻAmelika ʻaʻole makaʻu. Ke hele mai nei ka mea ʻōpio ethnographer mai ka makahiki 1999 e noiʻi i ka voodoo a hele i nā wahi ʻilihune me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka halihali lehulehu.
"ʻO ka mea pōʻino loa i hana ʻia ʻo ia ka ʻohi ʻia ʻana i ka wā Carnival, akā hiki ke hana ma nā wahi āpau," wahi a Ms. Smith. "ʻO ka liʻiliʻi o kaʻu i hoʻopaʻa ʻia he mea kupaianaha ia i ka ʻike ʻia ʻana o koʻu ʻike."
Akā, nui nā limahana kōkua, nā diplomats, a me nā haole ʻē aʻe e noho ana ma hope o nā pā a me ka uea concertina.
A koe wale no ka huakaʻi hele ʻana mai nā ʻāina ʻē, kokoke ʻaʻole loaʻa ka mākaʻikaʻi. "He mea hoʻonāukiuki loa," wahi a Jacqui Labrom, he mikionali kahiko nāna i hoʻonohonoho i nā huakaʻi alakaʻi i Haiti mai 1997.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia, ʻaʻole maʻalahi nā hōʻikeʻike alanui a ʻaʻole hiki ke hopena i ka hana ʻino. "I nā makahiki '50 a me '60, ua aʻo ʻo Haiti iā Cuba, Jamaica, ka Dominican Republic pehea e hana ai i ka mākaʻikaʻi…. Inā ʻaʻole i loaʻa iā mākou kahi paʻi maikaʻi ʻole, e hoʻololi ʻia ia.
