Here is a view in the life of the National Ati Max Gesner Beauvoir who died at the age of 79.

Haitian Voodoo's Supreme Chief, Max Beauvoir, recently passed away in Port-au-Prince. He was 79. Beauvoir had another vocation, besides being a houngan, as a biochemist.

After studying and working in the U.S. he returned to Haiti, rose to the highest rank in Voodoo, and advocated for the religion Voodoo legitimately is.

Beauvoir's official title, Naitonal Ati, was created to give creditability to Voodoo against the slanderous attacks of Protestant and Evangelical leaders.

Here is a picture of Ernst Jeudy, Candidate for Deputy in Delmas.

Ernst Jeudy, ending up in second place during first-round voting, has been exposed as a former drug dealer. In 1987 a half pound of cocaine was discovered in his bag at Miami International Airport. Political observers say he should be disqualified from participating any further in elections.

The bigger issue is PEC should be conducting background checks on all candidates. Pundits say many politicians with arrest records have been elected to office only to raid government coffers.

From the turn of the century until around 2014, Human trafficking organizers from India found an opportunity in Haiti. A major Human trafficking ring was evolving between Delhi, India and Haiti where people would arrange fake documents, with the help of the passengers to reach Haiti. After living there for about a month, they would leave Haiti to either Cuba or the Bahamas until they reach Miami and Florida.

United States Embassy worked closely with the Indian government to fight human trafficking and stop that particular route in human trafficking and illegal immigration. Until 2014, the route between Delhi, India and Haiti was the most-preferred route for human traffickers as it was less time-consuming. US officials

Foreign affairs experts are now suspecting new routes for Indians to reach the US. There is a San Salvador-Havana-Mexico route. An official of an airline who did not want to be identified said that a more direct route was via London, Amsterdam to Miami.

In the early 1960s, when the founders of the International Child Care Jim and Virginia Snavley visited Haiti for the first time they were shocked to witness the sight of dying children in the street from malnutrition, tuberculosis and many other illnesses. They felt God's call to stand by these destitute and opened a small clinic--this is how Grace Children's Hospital and Pediatric Clinic began. For the last 40 years, Grace Children's Hospital has served millions of individuals who came to its door regardless of every circumstance, belief and background. In the beginning there were a handful of beds with limited facilities but gradually the support and capacity began to grow with the thanks to the help of International Child Care, Churches, General Board of Global Ministries and individuals. After the 2010 earthquake, in addition to its continuing regular programs on inpatient and outpatient departments, the hospital served as the main food and water distribution center.
