WORLDMAGNUM:16 February 2011 -- UN MINUSTAH: Port-au-Prince, Haiti - Former United States President and United Nations (UN) Special Envoy in Haiti Bill Clinton visited Haiti yesterday (15 Feb) and held a meeting on the country's recovery efforts.
During his one-day visit, Clinton, who co-chairs the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission (IHRC) with Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive, talked about the need to move hundreds of thousands of homeless people from camps for the internally displaced.
At the IHRC meeting, Clinton said "we have a real chance to move this thing this year" adding that he felt optimistic that much can be done for a large number of people in a short period of time "if we do it and we stay together."
Also present at the meeting were Haitian Presidential candidates Mirlande Manigat and Michel Martelly.
The 7.0-magnitude quake claimed more than 200,000 lives and left 1.3 million more people homeless in January 2010. Countless buildings, including Government facilities, hospitals and schools, were also destroyed.
