Friday, at the University Notre Dame d'Haiti, the Episcopal Conference of Haiti (CEH) in its message of end of year, provided an update, among other things, on the social situation, economic and political of the country and invited the authorities to divorce of the bad governance that it considers as "a scourge that has too long marked miserably the different strata of the Haitian society."

There has been a certain progress during this year, acknowledged Mgr. Chibly Langlois, President of the CEH "But the harsh conditions of unemployment and misery have quickly diluted these efforts [...] The growing poverty, the high cost of living, food insecurity, social, political, psychological and physical, the degradation of living together and of the environment, the decline of values, fear of future, the unemployment and all kinds of injustice, all all that results of the bad governance to which an end must be put."

The Prelates deplored the fact that the population and persons exercising responsibility in society, deviate a little more each day, of the wisdom that Jesus has shown "[...] Jesus was born as a child to teach us to grow in age and wisdom [...] But the Haitian society,meanwhile, moves away from this royal road," recalled Mgr. Langlois

"The big challenge today for us men and women of Haiti, is to allow that our heart become the cradle of this child placed between our hands to relearn of him to live in a new humanity," indicated for his part Mgr. Marie Erick Toussaint, Auxiliary Bishop of Port-au-Prince.
