so it's been more than a week now, 11 days since 7 point to upgrade his haiti. and then we've been working here at the hospital, seeing patients and also working with other hospital hours to address that must be the insured doctor in advance to remind our audience, tell them from what you do. and then i'm going to say hi to the other guest before we get into what is currently happening, go ahead. don't tell us about your heart just briefly. so our hospital is located in the for the long and is that 220 beds also providing a general can't to the southern model. okay, we'll come back to you just a moment. natasha. welcome to the stream. hello audience. who you are? what you do?

yes. net this, i mean hold on, i am the country director of patient help on nation is an organization that has been in the area of jeremy grand and for the last close to 40 years and i'm a man work is on health service delivery. we also do community development strategies as well as a cation right now we are in athens, mobilizing our team to respond to this after, and continue with the basic me the day today, the community. all right, very good. natasha. i will come back to you. john holmes, you would have seen his reporting on audi for the last couple of days. john, what i would have to do on what i felt a yes, i'm a correspondent with 0. i'm usually base to mexico. but as soon as we heard the

earthquake, it hit, obviously we want to come here and cover it. so for the last week, i've been a 3rd in, in la ca, in the part of the region that the earthquakes affected you with your, of a to, to get to a base the, a now input to print the capital. i'm going to show you why don't just mentioned hi . it's right here, my laptop. this is like height here, and then i'm going to show you where the earthquake hit. they just remember that little point there on the map in haiti, just click for one here. look at the intensity of the earthquake and i am guessing just about they're both in a bed is where you're sitting right now. right? right. that you get a sense of how badly hit that southern part of haiti has been. if you could walk around right now and show us, what would we see? so if we can look around and see we would see a lot of so many on did the station that is

not known to their work because most are good happen in the most remote areas. very difficult to access. and yesterday again, we toured one of those places and we were really shocked by the expense of different station. so in some areas or the houses are less and people are just flipping outside under like tops or it's really a very complicated situation. gotcha. how much have been impacted, we can see the southern part. absolutely, but all of haiti is all of haiti be impacted by the earthquake. well, i will say that there are way areas that have been impacted directly while others have been impacted indirectly. so the area of the earth showed

a you can see where jeremy and i were actually in the yellow circle and that's it was stated before him. maybe the reason that why the world doesn't realize the level of devastation is precisely that because his wife spread it over the 3 departments and nick suit and grand back. and the thing with this 3 departments and they are very, very hard to reach areas. they are very mom and in nature, and the landscape is very different. you have the landscape by the water, and then you have them landscape in very, very high mountains and incredibly so you have very small communities to live in and all of this territory and all of this area. and there are communities that, in essence, haven't even been re yet because again,

the nature of the widespread nature of, of is earthquake. and then of course, the rest of the country is impacting by the, you know, the age beginning to arrive, and the transfer patients from prince to the south area and, and the complexity of all of that once you are right through the south. because some of the roads are just not passable. bridges that are down. so you can imagine the difficulty relative to such a rod a rate of impact community. so i'm a little 500 people and some as big as the city of chi. yes, impact got a lot of damage and our friends at the hospital benefits i doing wonderful. where can we know what they are doing over there? john, i'm going to play a couple of trips. so the haitians who have lost their homes,

they are devastated. also, i've played those clips, i'm really interested in the new the atmosphere, the people that you spoke to. let's start with these. it confessed of all because if it's the work of god, it is his will. when you spend your life saving over a long period of time to build a house and it is destroyed in the 2nd, given that i'm no longer young, i'm old. i then ask god, if i will have another opportunity to rebuild, i just don't know. she didn't budget enough. all i'm going. no community is ruined. homes are destroyed. we have seen victims. we need food and water. we haven't received any help. people are sleeping out doors when it rains, they get wet. there is nowhere to sleep. oh yes. 2 yes, yeah, that's really tough, isn't it? to have these people, you know,

saying that this is basically everything was gone in a moment. we actually went to one of the villages. it was really interesting to hear that they should talk about communities, a small ones that are affected because i think not just us, but there's a lot of media group here that we're trying to get out to those communities. and we found one called floor on which we talked to the head of the district. he said 90 percent of the buildings in that community had been destroyed much about us. basically every house there and it looked like we drove down the road and every house on that road pretty much with a few exceptions, was down and we stopped when we arrived at a building that was the school, the church, and the hospital for that community. it been around for 53 years since a christian lady who had a bill for them and, and it was gone in a heartbeat. and obviously that community was just devastated. just isn't attention

in a boat was saying that these communities hard to get to because they're in the mountains . we have to go through a river that we managed to with. we bought full by full, but it's not going to be easy for a lot of different vehicles to get that back to that community. so it's, it's destruction, not just in the cities, but in those smaller communities. that's a real, a real problem. there is something that different media group are trying to highlight right now. john, you're younger, post place of if you bring a crew with you, lisa is with you on your crew. and i've just been checking out his, his instagram feet here in a bag, in a very you're going to recognize this. this is a reality on the ground. haiti, la chi football stadium has turned into a makeshift camp in a pooling conditions with no food, water and bathrooms. when aide comes, police provide security, but they've taken a way and never combat what to innovate. yes,

yes, this is actually what those have been in this port lights, but it's the conditions of many more people have been basically receiving attention from back to the rest of the areas and some areas are asked. so we moved that so far. even today we still discovering people who got injured and they've never seen anybody to have them. so it's a very difficult situation and people are in need of everything going from food to medical care. i'm wondering, natasha, what is dying? right. i asked that because i'm looking here shift the haiti on my on my laptop,

delivering food on motiv likes to taos outside of jeremy. that is one way to work out. the lack of access is we're just going to put the food on bikes. and then like it for that it ingenuity in the face of dissolve the natasha. i don't want everyone to just walk away from this conversation. just we paying a wailing of what can we do? people all people trying. right guys. yeah, i have to fire this incredible ingenuity and creativity to resolve the issues you know, going back to that terrifying, pull or feel seen is, is just probably really have to try to avoid by coming out with solutions with the local people. the local people are really come in to get our thing, make this happen. so you for the name of the people that are already on the ground or have been on the ground, they know who is who they know their,

their patients. there are no the member and the community, they know the leaders and the community are annual, engage them with their resources because that also empower them with some, you know, financial assistance with the ability. ringback to really get the assistance with possibly sometimes even the need, the police are making members of that community. so their community are going to accept that age coming in without any kind of an incident of bias or any age being stolen, etc. we are working with some partners on the grounds and central world. kistin is one of those partner in fact, and that is in coordination with some help on jason. and we're getting very creative to make sure that this assistance truly the people that needed and avoid any of the kinds of stories that are common. now that the aid is just not getting

to the people to and i'm just going to pull into you 2 comments here and i'm going to play a little bit from your reporting. and then i'm going to come right back to you. all right, so you says i am haitian, thank you for being part of the program. when such event happened, the haitian elite and those corrupted politicians take advantage of those monetary and aid. and then it says the un must lead some investigations around those lead and corrupt politicians. interesting because you went to a press conference recently, the un deputy sexy general with their and i should politicians with i'm not going to add the way that you dislike them. but they were there and you asked them some quite difficult, challenging questions that heavily from those questions and then tell me what your experience was. how do you think the government is handling this current disaster? let's go to john asking those questions. one of the regions, it's been completely flattened. this last bill we went for last year and they said they haven't had any one from the government coming up for them made when they took

you told them to wait for that. why are they not getting a sooner since 98 percent of the houses are destroyed? but the prime minister chose not to answer the question, passing the might to his head of civil protection. we are formulating our response . evidently, we have some issues related with security, but we are doing our best to accelerate the process. we've already sent several convoys, but gradually we're going to step john, look happy. as nobody looked happy with those questions, you ask him. but if he's me quite reasonable questions to ask. yeah, that was last friday when we had the prime minister in that, in that press conference or the laundry. and it was interesting that he pass the mike over there know that he didn't want to take that question. and actually he'd been in a meeting before then talking to the organization of american states that i listen, been to, and he made the same. so appoint beth. this is with civil protection,

they're the ones handling this and all the way through on that we seem to be an impression that this was something that he's all face and he perhaps didn't want to deal with. and the spirit had that he wanted another agency to deal with that. so i think that perhaps if you're watching that press conference and you saw that clip, you might wonder about this sort of leadership. now obviously the haitian government at the moment has its own problems because the president got assassinated just last month. so there's a whole political situation that's a very difficult one for the country right now. i suppose something else about that press conference as well. going on to another, the head of civil protection that was talking about security, something that we haven't touched much yet. and that's the fact the on the road, the only road really from the capital to the disaster area. there is a suburb of pull to print the best rates called multi song in which there's

a real 2 gangs of really going to war over that place. now one of the questions i also asked in the press conference is, what are you doing in that district to try and make sure that you can get through. because especially when we 1st landed wanting to go through that because they're worried about kidnappings and hijacking. now what the prime minister he did on that question, he said that situation is improved. we're working about producing his jeremy paul, who's a producer in hate. they actually went and asked one of the gang leaders in that district. is this true? have you made peace? i'm one of the going to says yes, we have made peace with the other. going to let, let the aid get through our district. we then went there the day later, which we would never been able to do. this is a place where we went to police station, it's like a piece of swiss cheese. there's so many bullet holes in it and the law was forced out there a month back. but now the traffic is running a game. we saw a lot of traffic going through there, so i suppose, as natasha so said,

talking about silver lining fear. at least that problem that security problem has, has been sort of believe it through what we've heard from organizations on the ground. is that another problem is that when it actually gets where it's needed, some people are so desperate, completely, understandably that it a case meet distribution. the aid is difficult of the trucks and people are just wanting to get it as quickly as possible. so maybe it doesn't get where it's most needed. so there's a real complex situation, but obviously the government is done something there are and the organizations are trying to handle it on a day to day basis to make sure things go for while we're on the topic of 8, i want to bring in the voice of time and misha, jay, john, talking about n g o z, the impact they have had on haiti, or really the lack of impact they have had on haiti, dot a, in a bare, have a listen to this comment. and i would really like you to respond of the back of it

is truly a case of capitalism pushed to its logical conclusion in the caribbean. that is wide and the case in the span of a little bit over a decade. we can see 2 devastating earthquakes happen in the country. and despite the proliferation of n g o there, despite the influx of foreign capital and investment, their infrastructure has not improve their. instead, what we see is that today in the aftermath of the earthquake, where the amount of deaths and injuries are not fully, yet no haitians have to come out and make public please to the international community about which local haitian organization and other organizations are actually collecting fund materials to help haitian versus the proliferation of engineers that happen in haiti every time that there happens and those and she was profit off of that disaster by not giving those funds over to patients.

yes, that's big to there. we and they're growing. yes, we've seen a lot of new and use every time as a disaster. so you know, new engineers coming in and doing things and we're working with the local authorities and not being regulated and sometimes duplicating what is being done all what has been there already. so wasting the rest of this. so we said that it's very important that the n g o is better regulated by the government. so most of them are not really helpful. but yeah, those working closely to the haitian and community

which other ones are making this very difficult for you, but i, it's just an important to us which ones are not helpful yet. i know everyone's probably the wealthiest money anyway. got a good escape if you can. yeah. i've been working with region dimensional for the last almost 20 years. and i know that the nation has been working hand in hand with their local, what relation and also making sure that their needs expressed by them are their priorities are the actions. and we've been working in the health sector and we have the hospital in southern have providing basically free care to multiple people. so that's been in g o n z or is making

a real difference saving lives than they were storing on a daily basis. i haven't done their research on other organizations to know how effective and i can't name one which is not effective. but i know that we have tons of engineers in the country if they were not as effective as have figured it out in the ground out there. i think we will be we won't be talking right now because you would have all the technology we have, the house building, the restructuring would have infrastructure in haiti. we wouldn't even be having this conversation. all right, let me jump in in one mosley. this is yana cathy on it. everybody always off and we have conversations like this on the stream. how can we help? tatiana has a suggestion and then i'm going to get natasha. to add to that suggestion, hearing us the course right now,

keep in mind that it's not just goods that they need. it's not just clothes, they need food, they need water, they need to be able to feed themselves and their families. so don't overflow their country with donated goods and donated items we did experience with the earthquake in 2010. there were so many goods that were donated. a lot of them went to waste because that's not what the people needed. so if anything partner or collaborate with organizations that are already on the ground that i've heard from and spoken to the actual people that have suffered these losses, to see what they need and understand how you can respond or how you can fill some of those needs so that is just very briefly what does hating right now today this week? well, i like to add a little bit to the conversation about the n g o. there are on the ground. i have been here for decades and are truly serving the community. they are angels,

nation and they, yes, there are some international, n, g o is on the ground and they're doing magnificent things. that is, one of the things we need to do is work with those and heels, as i stated before, the really know the needs of the community and connect with them to provide that information back for the bill. the level of a, the need to come in. so here's what happened while i was know it here in haiti for the 2010 earthquake. i was here for hurricane matthew. so what happens is that in the faster all this organizations arrive, whether the large one will know the main about whether it be or the little ones or, i mean we had organizations from russia, from one from india, from sam day, i'm going to push you to bring that up to date, were in the last 30 seconds of the show. what, how, okay,

have policies interrupting you? go ahead. how, how we import those that are on the ground. build a bridge between those are on the ground with the haitian community that is in the us that can help facilitate that aid and accountability, accountability, accountability at the end, we really need to know what the and the people that have been assisted. so what's your next story? what are you finding next from haiti? where the next story that we're going to file actually is going to be about the security and about the efforts to negotiate. we're going to start to allow that to get through and then the distribution on the ground. thanks, john. look out for that one out there. thank you john. thank you. talk to in a bad. thank you, natasha. thank you. people on youtube view as to being part of today's show. i see you next time. thanks watching everybody. ah
