Carnival of Flowers to Create Jobs

Carnival of Flowers to Create Jobs

Government of Haiti (GOH) is hosting the 2013 Carnival of Flowers (COF) in Port-au-Prince and other locales for three days.

Naysayers complain COF will not make a profit because vendors cheat the tax collector and out-of-state performers spend their money elsewhere.

GOH contends COF will create jobs and lift hopes of Haitians dashed by 2010's earthquake. GOH will subsidize COF at $1.6 million USD. Ministry of Culture says COF is an opportunity to display floral species that are part of Les Cayes Botanical Garden.

Year of the Environment Carnival of Flowers 2013 Theme

President Martelly wants to highlight Haiti's reforestation program, "Year of the Environment" by using the theme for 2013's Carnival of Flowers (COF). It will serve a dual function: to raise consciousness of ordinary citizens of how important greening Haiti is to its infrastructure, and connect it to nationalist pride Haitians feel during this celebration.

COF will display a myriad of floral species on its floats and costumes, to the delight of parade-goers.
