Ignoring the plight of the poor - hundreds of thousands of Haiti residents still live in inadequate sub-standard informal housing. The government's inability to bring urgently needed relief, the plundering of state coffers, the lack of planning, the incapacity to find finance/capital to jump start the nation's economy is looking growingly hopeless— It has been reported because of Haiti’s worsening economic situation, over 125,000 young people  left for Chile out of desparation  in search of work over the past 18 months.
