As for the appointment of the new Director General of SONAPI, Mr. Laleau said that first time in last 40 years, the government is committed towards the creation of new employment opportunities in Haiti and hence, the task of the new Director General will be a massive one. The new Director General, Mr. Bernard Schettini, said that SONAPI's mission is to create new jobs, which has to be a continuous process. He said that wealth creation is also a simultaneous goal. Apart from this, Mr. Schettini also responded to two out of total four goals set by President of Haiti and said that SONAPI's target is to increase its physical capacity gradually and that this can be achieved through new parks establishment and expansion of the already existing parks.

It is true that the dreams are big and that the goals cannot be achieved immediately but with proper cooperation between private and public sector and with proper governance, the goals can be achieved realistically. Mr. Bernard Schettini has a lot to do and the government has to provide the necessary support while maintaining transparency!
