On January 17, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon visited Haiti to encourage the people who are suffering. The country was hit by a strong earthquake on January 12 and thousands of people died. Many people in the capital, Port-au-Prince lost their homes and loved ones. They are suffering from sadness, hunger, and thirst. Mr. Ban went there to promise to help them.

The UN chief visited Haiti and met the president of the country, Rene Preval. Mr. Ban promised him to help the
victims of the devastating earthquake. “I came to Haiti with a very heavy heart to deliver a message of hope to the country’s earthquake victims and provide full support of the UN to the people of Haiti,” said Mr. Ban.

Due to the lack of food and water, Haitians are losing their patience. Currently, about 3 million to 3.5 million people are in need of help. “I sincerely hope and appeal to the Haitian people to be more patient,” Mr. Ban said. “I have seen and met many people on the streets. They are looking for a way to survive. I told them that I’m here to give them hope and to bring them a better future.”

Many countries in the world are
sending food and water to Haiti. Korea also sent many people to help the Haitians. The UN World Food Program (UNWFP)유엔 세계식량계획 plans to send more food to feed 1 million people in 2 weeks and 2 million people in one month.

According to the UN chief, the UN Security Council유엔 안전 보장 이사회 will also send more peacekeepers and international police to Haiti. Let’s hope Mr. Ban comes up with many more great ideas to help Haiti. In the mean time, why don’t we also offer a helping hand to the Haitians? You can donate your old clothes and shoes to send to them or you can give some money to help doctors heal the sick people.
