Jacmel and cuba used to be the biggest Caribbean destination . We used to have thousands of tourists in Jacmel and port au prince back then before they brought the democracy to us . After we had the democracy all the hotels factory went to DR instead. They brought share to all our black company and the broke them down . Like our sugar , milk , flour etc .

[@egom1993]

DR has a democracy though ?

[@ivy-waythemonstervevo5612]

@@egom1993 you can’t compare DR to an African country , Haiti is paying the price for making French , Spain , England loosing so much money on slavery. Therefore they have to sabotage their independence . And if Haiti is free and growing like it’s was all the African countries will trying to take their independence and that’s will crash western economies . The support DR get from the west it’s not the same it’s Haiti get , The west broke down Haitian Army and armed the young kids while they are investing in DR army . They are making Haitian leave to go to DR and for work while their business they had in Haiti they close them .

​​@@egom1993 Always trying to find an excuse for not blaming politicians for their mismanagement, 'let's blame it on democracy instead. That's why many Haitians prefer authoritarian regimes like those in Russia, China and Venezuela. "I wonder why they don't praise Trujillo." 🤔

[@vesuvio3364]

That oversimplifies how the Dominican Republic became a tourist and manufacturing hub. Hotels aren’t relocated, tourists go to countries that are safe. In the same way, factories didn’t relocate to the DR, instead, new ones were established there.

"Art bienbo" means beautiful art. That's what was written on the boardwalk. African Tigress, you are indeed privileged to have seen so many beautiful places in Haiti because you are lucky to have the right Haitian friends to show you around. The other Kenyan KZbinr Marwa visited Haiti, but he didn't see much of what Haiti had to offer. You should definitely come back to Jacmel next year for the carnival and spend 1 month. The carnival is so beautiful and around that time there are various activities going on.

This is a world heritage city. Haiti is the most historical place in the entire Caribbean, and many parts of the world. It has the richest history and culture in the Caribbean, and it's almost authentic African. It produces some of the greatest architecture and art works in the Caribbean. Some of the greatest African minds were brought to Haiti from West/Central Africa. The Europeans took the he best minds from Africa... It's important to note that Toussaint Louverture came from the royal family of Benin. I would love to visit Jacmel to see the architecture and the arts of the city. I have never been Haiti, but I was introduced to Haiti through its history. One day, by God's grace, I visit Haiti. That country has so many hidden treasures. May God Almighty remembers Haiti!❤️🌹🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🙏🕊️!

Electricity in Trinidad was In March 1895, according to a search. Electricity was installed for the first time in Trinidad. The Original Queen's Park Hotel and the Princess Building were the first two of the first buildings to have electric lights. The first street lights were installed on March 5th, 1895. Note electricity was introduced by the colonial powers at the time. The people on the ground . . . the villages got electricity around Independence in 1962. Jacmel is beautiful with a rich history.
