CARICOM RESCUE EFFORTS NY ‘dodged bullet’
the death toll so far at just over
2,000 and have pointed to the
destruction of nearly 14,000
buildings mostly in the southwestern
parts of the country.
The quake struck even as
the nation of nearly 10 million
people was still smarting
from a similarly strong earthquake
back in 2010 which had
killed more than 200,000 people.
Last week’s tragedy came
about a month after Colombian
mercenaries stormed President
Jovenel Moise’s private residence,
assassinating him even
as the island is functioning
without several state institutions
including its parliament.
The quake now means that
the limited brigade of medical
personnel on the island will
have to shift their focus from
containing the spread of the
Covid-19 pandemic to treating
the sick and injured from the
quake.
In the meantime, CDEMA
said the Haitian government
had made a formal request for
assistance from the Caribbean
Community, asking specifically
for help at the national emergency
coordination center.
Director Liz Riley said all
systems are being readied.
“We are making the necessary
Caribbean L 12 ife, AUGUST 20-26, 2021
arrangements to get
those human resources on the
ground as soon as possible following
the passage of Tropical
Storm, now Tropical Depression
Grace. In the aftermath
of the event, we have activated
our coordination center and
coordination for the provision
of support to Haiti has commenced
in collaboration with
Jamaica, which is the lead for
our north-western sub region
of the CDEMA system.”
The United Kingdom
through its Foreign and Commonwealth
office is also lining
up to ensure CDEMA has
resources to function and even
distribute, while the Barbadosbased
regional bank is collaborating
with the United Nations
Development Program (UNDP)
and the Caribbean Donor Partner
Group on assistance to
Haiti.
As the bloc pledged full support
for Haiti, a number of
countries including Guyana,
Barbados, Trinidad and The
Bahamas have said they are
willing to send relief aid to
Haiti but are anxiously awaiting
a needs assessment report
from Port Au Prince.
For example, Guyanese
President, Irfaan Ali reported
Tuesday that he had reached
out to Haitian Prime Minister,
Ariel Henry for an update and
he “indicated that an assessment
is being done to ascertain
the extent of the impact of
the earthquake, and to identify
the critical areas of need. Dr.
Henry also said that the assessment
report will be shared with
President Ali and CARICOM as
soon as it has been completed,”
a Guyanese government statement
said.

Last Thursday, the US Census
Bureau released the stateby
state results for the 2020
Census.
The numbers revealed a
more diverse state and one
where the state’s population
grew by more than 4 percent
over the past decade, despite
the count taking place during
a pandemic and the Trump
administration’s concerted
effort to exclude immigrant
New Yorkers from the census.
“Census watchers were
thankful that NYS (New York
State) only lost one Congressional
seat in the 2020 Census,
as NYS has lost two or more
seats every Census since 1950,”
Awawdeh said.
“Citing the massive growth
in New York City’s Asian population,
immigrant rights advocates
immediately demanded
that any redistricting map
provide fair representation to
these and all communities,”
he added.
Meantime, Queens Borough
President Donovan Richards,
Jr. was ecstatic about the borough’s
population growth.
The 2020 Census show
Queens’ population rose
to 2,405,464, a 7.8 percent
increase over the 2010 Census.
“The large jump in our borough’s
population underscores
what we in Queens have known
for a long time; that Queens
truly is a fantastic place to live
and raise a family,” Richards
said. “My heartfelt appreciation
goes to all of the 2.4 million
people who make Queens
their home, including the more
than one million people who
have come here from across
the globe to build new lives in
‘The World’s Borough.’
“I also deeply thank everyone
who, in spite of the
many challenges posed by the
COIVD-19 pandemic, worked
tirelessly with the Queens
Borough President’s Office to
ensure Queens was accurately
counted in the 2020 Census,”
he added.
“From the dedicated personnel
at the US Census Bureau to
our partners in local and state
government, and the many
volunteers who joined us in
an extensive community outreach
effort, we never gave up
on our goal to count every
Queens resident,” Richards
underscored.
