Terrible. I wonder how many missionaries trying to help they chased away?

Having worked at MTPP years ago, this story isn’t even a little bit of a surprise.

I’ve made hundreds of flights into PAP as a missionary pilot. Most recently last Friday when things seemed to be normal. May be a good time to retire

Several years ago my wife and I and middle daughter volunteered at a clinic in Jeremie. MAF pilots were wonderful for transportation to and from Port-au Prince. Fast-Doc is correct: so many people want to help but the domestic terrorists chase them away. Time to send in the Marines again.

People from the Victoria BC area stopped visiting Haiti to help orphanages when the orphages advised of high risk to whiteys who are assumed to have money. (And may have had, though I hope banking helped them get money from Canada to the orphanages.)

Should just fly into the DR, assuming border crossing is feasible (evil people were hitting Haitians from the DR at one time, DR tried to stop that).
