Haiti - 9th Summit of the Americas : The Minister of Commerce praises the digital economy

Ricardin Saint-Jean, the Minister of Commerce and Industry, during his speech at the 9th Summit of the Americas in Los Angeles, emphasized the digital economy (public and community networks, electronic commerce, etc...) which represents according to him, a boon, in terms of integration into the world economy:

"The digital economy opens up unexpected and unequaled prospects in terms of integration for countries with extremely limited resources," said Minister Saint-Jean at the podium of this Summit, emphasizing "the digital economy represents a large part of the added value, created with a much greater contribution to growth than that of certain traditional sectors."

He indicated that a major project is open with great possibilities, not only to make up for the significant delay, but also and above all to make qualitative leaps towards integration into the world economy. He believes that all countries can benefit from this digital economy if they agree, together, to reduce the production gap very often linked to the level of learning, the challenges of illiteracy and the lack of infrastructure.

To show Haiti's involvement in this new economy, Ricardin Saint-Jean indicated that from the design and implementation of the "Strategic Plan for the Development of Haiti, emerging country by 2030", the emphasis was focuses on the expansion of communications and the digital network of the territory "[...] This phase specifically plans to increase the connectivity of the territory, to develop public and community uses and services, to set up a network of multimedia centers and support the production and distribution of national content. An orientation that was driven by the Haitian public authorities and favorably received by the actors of the Civil Society."
