Deadly riots over the rising price of food erupted in Haiti on April 4, 2008,due primarily to a jump in the price of rice, "the main ingredient of the Haitian diet". Six people were killed in the unrest,including a U.N. peace keeping soldier on April 12. and the unrest only subsided when the nation's Prime Minister resigned and the government lowered the price for a bushel of rice. These developments have caused alarm in the highest level of global economic analysis and planning.
The big questions are:
1. are we also going to do "riot" in order to low the price of rice?
2. Do we want our Prime Minister to resign? Is it the best way to handle the food crisis?
3.Is there really rice shortage in this country or some people just make up this story for their own benefits?
I believe that those questions are need to be thought very carefully by everyone who loves this country.
