On June 7, 2023, Ambassador Ku Wen-Jiann of the Republic of China (Taiwan) to Haiti, visited with Chairman of CIECA, Mr. Henry Chih-Shang Kao. Ambassador Ku said that after the assassination of Haitian President in July 2021. The primary goal of the current transitional government is to hold the next election. Nevertheless, the government can hardly control the turbulent gangs, coupled with the raging coronavirus and cholera, making it impossible to hold elections even after its term has expired. It seems that only international intervention can quell the chaos.
Regarding the cooperative relation-ship between Taiwan and Haiti, Chairman Kao said “At the current stage, we can first help Haiti integrate their most needed projects and then send their personnel to Taiwan to learn related technologies. After returning to Haiti in the future, they will be able to independently operate production and to repair equipment when necessary. Haiti is rich in tropical crops such as sugar and bananas, but lacks agricultural processing technology. If crops can be processed into commodities with higher added value and then exported to foreign countries, the economic benefits will be much higher.
The two gentlemen had a pleasant talk, exchanged gifts after the meeting, and both hoped that the CIECA and the ROC embassy in Haiti could cooperate further in the future to consolidate the friendship between the two countries.
