La Banque de la R?publique d’Ha?ti (BRH) a partag? des informations sur la balance commerciale, la hausse de la valeur des importations de p?trole contre une baisse du volume re?u, sur le repli en glissement annuel des transferts sans contrepartie et de ses interventions sur le march? des changes dans la Note de politique mon?taire du troisi?me trimestre de l’exercice, mardi 2 ao?t 2022.

<>, peut-on lire dans cette note de politique mon?taire.

<>, a indiqu? la BRH.

<>, selon la BRH.

<>, a fait remarquer la banque centrale, qui induit une conclusion en terme d’impacts sur le march? des changes.

<>, peut-on lire dans cette note de politique mon?taire. <>, selon la banque centrale qui fait des perspectives.

Les perspectives ?conomiques pour la fin de l’exercice fiscal 2021-2022 demeurent mitig?es et sont assujetties ? un ensemble de facteurs tant au niveau interne qu’au niveau externe. Le prolongement de la guerre en Ukraine devrait conduire ? l’intensification du rench?rissement des produits p?troliers et alimentaires de base ainsi qu’? la persistance des ruptures des cha?nes d’approvisionnement au niveau mondial. De m?me, l’inflation ?lev?e et les risques de r?cession ou de ralentissement ?conomique qui p?sent notamment sur les ?tats-Unis, le Canada et la Zone euro, pourraient affecter le revenu disponible des migrants ha?tiens et cons?quemment les transferts priv?s sans contrepartie, principale composante de l’offre de devises sur le march? des changes. La hausse des prix chez nos principaux partenaires commerciaux pourrait ?galement continuer ? alimenter les pressions inflationnistes, notamment ? travers l’augmentation des prix des produits import?s consid?r?s dans le panier de consommation.

Sur le plan interne, la poursuite de la d?gradation du climat des affaires en raison de la situation s?curitaire continuera d’affecter n?gativement l’activit? ?conomique et la formation des prix ? travers le blocage de certains circuits de production et de commercialisation. ? cela, s’ajoutent les risques de d?g?ts potentiels qui pourraient survenir au niveau du secteur agricole au cours de la saison cyclonique, laquelle a d?but? le 1er juin 2022.

Une att?nuation de l’impact de ces facteurs pourrait provenir d’une consolidation des finances publiques qui permettrait de d?gager des ressources pour la mise en oeuvre de programmes sociaux et le financement de certains projets d’investissements n?cessaires ? la cr?ation de conditions aptes ? rendre le climat des affaires propice aux investissements priv?s. Le programme de r?f?rence sign? avec le Fonds mon?taire international (FMI) devrait ?galement faciliter le renforcement de ces ressources ? travers la mat?rialisation de l’engagement des bailleurs. De son c?t?, la BRH effectuera, de mani?re syst?matique, son diagnostic de la conjoncture macro?conomique afin de prendre les mesures appropri?es qui permettront de contenir la volatilit? du taux de change et ses incidences sur les mouvements des prix. De m?me, elle continuera ? innover dans le sens de la mise en place de programmes de soutien aux secteurs productifs en vue de contribuer ? ramener l’?conomie sur un sentier de croissance, a indiqu? la BRH.

Selon l’ancien parlementaire, l’accord de la Primature dont il est signataire n’a pas donn? les r?sultats escompt?s. Environ un an apr?s la signature dudit accord, Nenel Cassy a dit constater qu’aucun point n’a ?t? respect? et que les conditions de vie de la population continuent de se d?grader.

Au sujet de l’annonce du Premier ministre Ariel Henry relative ? une augmentation graduelle du prix du carburant sur le march? local, N?nel Cassy pense que le gouvernement devrait continuer ? subventionner les produits p?troliers.

S?nateur Cassy indique qu’il s’est d?j? entretenu avec d’autres structures politiques dissidentes de l’accord du 11 septembre pour lancer des mouvements de protestation contre le Premier ministre.

L’ancien directeur g?n?ral de la Police nationale d’Ha?ti Mario Andr?sol a donn? son point de vue sur la situation s?curitaire du pays ? la matinale de Magik9 le mardi 2 ao?t 2022. L’ancien DG s’est gard? de proposer des formules pour r?tablir la paix, arguant que de l’ext?rieur ?tant, certaines r?alit?s de la police peuvent ?chapper ? sa compr?hension. Toutefois, d’un point de vue g?n?ral, Andr?sol croit que la situation actuelle est grave et exige des r?ponses appropri?es. L’ex-mnum?ro un de l’institution polici?re ajoute ?galement que le probl?me d?passe la police. <>, fait-il remarquer.

Mario Andr?sol pense que le probl?me se caract?rise par l’occupation du territoire par des groupes arm?s. Selon M. Andr?sol, on est confront? ? un probl?me de s?curit? nationale qui requiert l’intervention d’une force militaire. <>, persiste-t-il.

Plus loin, l’ancien DG propose d’inclure les membres de l’arm?e d’Ha?ti dans la solution. <>, sugg?re-t-il.

Parce qu’il y a des contentieux non vid?s, la communaut? ne coop?re avec avec les FAd’H en ce qui concerne la s?curit?. Pour Andr?sol, il revient aux Ha?tiens de r?tablir cette confiance entre les pays amis d’Ha?ti et les appareils s?curitaires en Ha?ti, notamment l’arm?e. <>, souligne-t-il.

Par ailleurs, Mario Andr?sol estime que la soci?t? dans son ensemble doit faire pression sur les autorit?s afin qu’elles apportent des solutions. <>, soutient-il.

EYEWITNESS: Two years on…Quo vadis?

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: INews Guyana

No…your Eyewitness won’t ask from where we’ve come, but rather, “Where are we going?” If you need to be reminded about the former question, then something’s really wrong with you! Those who’ve “forgotten” the Mingo Manoeuvre with the stained bedsheet (how in the world did a GECOM bedsheet get stained?); the riots in West Berbice; the riot at Mon Repos, and all the huffing and puffing in-between, are suffering from some real big cognitive dissonance!!

So, we’ll move on to what might lie ahead. But hold it!! Isn’t the future, to a large extent, determined by what came before?? Like the speed of the ball towards the boundary being determined by the force with which it was hit before?? Just can’t get away from the past, can we?? One fella who should know said, “The past isn’t dead; it ain’t even past”!! So OK…tell you what: your Eyewitness won’t DWELL on the past, but just ALLUDE to it, to discern any possible causative factors!!

So, let’s cut to the chase and start with what we all know runs everything in Guyana – politics. And this one’s easy – we’re in for a long, very hot summer!! And yes, dear reader, we do have “summer” in Guyana. Haven’t you noticed all the “summer sales” and “summer holidays” and “summer clothes”?? The Emancipation Day celebrations have fuelled the stage for the Opposition supporters’ angst of being robbed by the planters for four hundred years, and its “payback time”!

But hold it!! Isn’t that supposed to be “reparations time” against the folks who extracted all their labour free? The Dutch and the Brits?? And we’ve launched a movement to get those reparations?? Surely, we’ve all read Rodney’s “How Europe Underdeveloped Africa” and applied it to Guyana – since we were directly plundered even before Africa!? “Underdeveloped” means not only did they not “develop” us, but they actually left us worse off compared to countries that weren’t colonised! Think Japan. And then whatever they left was nationalised by Burnham and destroyed??

Anyhow, that won’t cut any ice with the Opposition fire-stokers, who’re working overtime to give us a repeat performance of Desmond Hoyte’s “slow fyaah; mo fyaah” circa 2000. As your Eyewitness is pecking away at this piece, the grand Opposition rally at Parade Ground – and specifically “Burnham’s Court in Georgetown – is scheduled this afternoon. And we can expect that all the demagoguery spouted on Emancipation Day will be ratcheted up to incendiary levels.

Parade Ground – we’ve been reminded – was the scene of African Guyanese being executed and heads stuck on pikes. And this will be analogised to the PPP’s actions in the present. Hyperbole is the stock-in-trade of rabble-rousers!!

And then will come the “morning after”!! A city of clerks…?

 …the US speaks

Two years ago, the US played a great role – along with the EU, Commonwealth, Caricom, OAS, etc – in assuring there was “fair play” after the PNC tried to rig the elections once again!! The PNC myrmidons claim that the Yanks “installed” the PPP, which is therefore an “illegal, illegitimate cabal” – like the PNC of 1964-1992, your Eyewitness guesses!! They’re ironically in raptures over the messages coming out during Pres Ali and his team’s meetings with members of the US Administration last week in Washington. They’re stretching!!

Secty of State Anthony Blinken tweeted, “Guyana remains a key partner as we work to bolster food and energy security, promote shared prosperity and inclusive growth, strengthen transparency, and safeguard the environment”. VP Kamala Harris noted that she “looked forward to continuing her collaboration with President Ali in promoting inclusive democracy, economic development, and security for all Guyanese…”

“Inclusive democracy” is the common term, and American practice is the standard!!

So, where’s the PPP going amiss?

…still truculent 

Opposition Leader Norton’s under pressure to keep his street cred – against extremists who feel they “put him there” because of his old rep.

Trapped by the past…even though he knows the times have changed!! He should speak to Corbin.
