You facts are 100% incorrect in this article. As president of Cap Terminal SA, the leaseholder of the container port in Cap Haitien since 1998, we have never received a complaint about our service , performance or security from The government of Haiti , any other international agency , or any shipping line that we have serviced at the port. What has been done is that USAID is lending money to improve the entire port and has demanded the government of Haiti to cancel our lease for no other apparent reason than to try to give it to someone else for money in order to justify the project costs.
We are pursuing all options to correct this problem since we are owner by US citizens.
Imagine USAID using US tax funds and trying to illegally kick out US people doing .business in Haiti. Maybe USAID is planning on putting in a well connected person.company with ties to USAID . These much more to say on this matter
Richard A Dubin, President
Cap Terminal SA
