******a larger question looms:  how will Haiti overcome the loss of customs
fees and such tariffs, since they  have  played such a key role in Haiti's
budget for so long?  removing such tariffs and fees is not rational, unless
a viable alternative is found...........i doubt an alternative is currently
available..........
