In 1988, Leslie Manigat, under the banner of the National Assembly of the Progressive Democrats (NPDR), won the presidency in an election marked by military invasion. After only four months in office he was overthrown in a coup. He ran again in 2006 and finished a distant second to Préval. However, despite Preval did not win the 50% ugg boots required to avoid a runoff, the electoral council never had a second round - and in protest, Mirlande Manigat withdrew as a candidate for the Senate NPDR. "I cannot support illegality" he said of his controversial move. (See photos of the history of Haiti from misery.) In this regard, Manigat and fans can see 28 November as an opportunity for revenge, especially because many Haitians believe that her husband of 80 years of age is a power behind the throne if he wins. But Manigat insists that she and NPDR - called a center-left "capitalist-with-a-man-face" game in the tradition of Latin American leftists moderate success as Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva - want to check a corrupt elite who are accused of "serious social indifference and insensitivity. It was there before, but after the earthquake that has been demonstrated in worst forms." Manigat, vice chancellor of the University Quisqueya in Port-au-Prince, told TIME that, apart from the struggle against inequality nightmare of Haiti through ugg boots sale reforms such as universal access to public education - children only half of the country even go to school - one of its major objectives is that the Haitian Government more than a subordinate decadent foreign NGOs. "There are many NGOs position themselves to receive the [$ 10 billion], but they want to operate outside state control," said Manigat. "My government will not operate the way of NGOs." Manigat feel the earthquake recovery in Haiti "not started" - indeed, debris removal and relocation of some 1.5 million displaced Haitians has been frustratingly slow - but like most of the candidates is less specific about how he had to accelerate. She supports changing the Constitution of Haiti to allow dual nationality, which could help rebuild the country, drawing on the resources and talents of the large Haitian diaspora, including more than one million Haitian-Americans. But critics fear, on the basis of some of his teaching of constitutional law in Haiti, which Manigat authoritarian designs may have to ugg boots uk expand presidential power - which she denies). Manigat has also been helped by the campaign uncharismatic Celestin, 48, a little-known technocrat. On the stump in the southern port city of Jacmel recently repeated his theme of less-than-electric "stability and continuity" while playing in the criticism of the government of Preval, saying: "We know there were things that were a little ignored. "That has driven former supporters of Preval as Port-au-Prince Damler Jourdanie carpenter, 35 years, Manigat field. "The kids INIT have forgotten us," says Damler. "I will try to Manigat, ma'am." Since no candidate can win 50% in the first round, the race will probably be reduced to a Jan. 16 runoff (less than a month before the inauguration on February 7.) Some wondered how Haiti can conduct a credible election, given the persistent chaos air Jordan shoes earthquake and the cholera epidemic. Manigat said the vote "has to happen" for Haiti to move forward, but after the dispute of 2006, adding that she and NPDR the "will to be vigilant against fraud, deception." This grandma will not tolerate it. KHARTOUM (Reuters) - Foreign donors have been carried out preparations for a referendum on the independence of southern Sudan, not to transfer the money to the organizers and wasting money on pointless subsidies, the head of the organizing committee, said on Sunday. Ibrahim Mohamed Khalil international groups criticized the mbt shoes day before voters in the south will begin to register to participate in the Jan. 9 vote. The referendum is the culmination of a 2005 peace agreement from north to south that ended the civil war, Africa's longest and most analysts believe that the south will vote to secede. Years of planning disputes delayed the vote that began in July, three years late. Khalil said the calendar was so strong that there was no margin of error of the south will begin on Monday to register to vote. He criticized the international community for not giving funds directly to the commission of a referendum as required by law. "The part that we have not made use of money spent to date is the international donors," Khalil told reporters. The national government had paid the Commission mbt shoes 9 million Sudanese pounds ($ 3.8 million) and the semi-autonomous southern government ￡ 10,000,000. But he said the international partners were not even seeing the body in much of their work. "We are finished products and materials in the same way to deal with a minor. You do not give a box of less importance in the case of misuse of it, but give finished products and services which, incidentally, bother us. " The U.S. development agency (USAID) said it had budgeted $ 50 million to help with the referendum, but confirmed they would not pay the money directly to the commission. The British International Development Secretary Andrew Mitchell said no, but the Sudanese government must pay cash directly to the commission. Khalil said the international community had appointed contractors mostly Sudanese and experts are not without seeing if the Sudanese authorities to do the Abercrombie and Fitch same job. He said he had appointed a U.S. law firm makes incomprehensible regulations based on the referendum law. Finally, the commission was to find a company in Sudan to do the job. "This is a complete waste of money," he said, adding that the committee had been delayed by six weeks to go to their offices due to the delay in donor funding. Khalil said the committee had asked the Presidency to make a decision on whether to keep the tight schedule. "We were told that the calendar is very, very tight, pushed to the max and has no margin of error, such as trucks (which carry voting materials) crash," said Khalil. "We are working day and night." The southern ruling party has rejected any delay to the Jan. 9 vote, fearing it could spark violence that may not be able to control by the Southerners Abercrombie and Fitch sale expectantly. Sudan's civil war claimed 2 million lives and lasted on and off since 1955. The differences over oil, ethnicity, religion and ideology fueled the conflict. Khalil said registration will begin on Monday in Sudan as planned, but delayed a few days in Egypt because of a breakdown in communication with the government. Also be delayed in the U.S. and Australia because the Southerners had not asked for more registration centers. In a remarkably short time, Adidas shoes China's economy has become the second largest in the world. Just five years ago, China's GDP was half of the number two in Japan, the Chinese eclipsed earlier this year. Next stop: the giant U.S. economy - A milestone that is a decade or two away and yet almost certain. China's growth is an old epic story; its economy has been racing along a growth of 8% to 10% annually for 30 years. But now, with a GDP approaching $ 5000000000000 (compared to 14 trillion in the U.S.), China is a power that each of its waves move around the world. (See pictures of the village of e-waste in China.) Ie one cannot ignore China - even if not directly invest - at least not for the next 100 years. Pay special attention to the last action of China, which has been to curb its rapid growth. Most countries would like to have this problem. Cosplay costumes China raised interest rates last month for the first time in three years and has taken other measures to reduce bank lending and cooling sizzling real estate market. Growth slowed to 9.6% in the third quarter, compared to 11.9% in the first and 10.3% in the second. This is a delicate situation. A growth rate much lower than 8% would feel like a global recession and produce consequences. Therefore China's ability to harness the brake without causing a shock will affect everything from the prices of copper and oil to the stock prices of companies like FedEx and Procter & Gamble. And, oh yes, neighboring economies across Asia, which could fall off a cliff if things go wrong. (See the pictures of China on the wild side.) Global investors are betting that China succeeds in slowing the growth with aplomb. Chinese stocks, while 6% for the year have been a great recovery from a previous fall slopes. The shares rose 12% in October. "We are doing a great job managing the economy down," said Tony Roth, chief investment strategist at UBS Wealth Management. However, success is almost assured. China's torrid growth has stopped the escalation of inflation (now running at 3.6% per year) that Nike shoes makes it difficult for the country's poor to buy food and safe shelter. Food prices are rising at a rate of 8% annually; the rampant real estate speculation has probably created a bubble. So there is enormous pressure to act decisively before the riots broke out. (See the high-speed train in China.) Chinese leaders have shown themselves capable macroeconomic managers in the last two decades. But this is a different challenge. Management of decompression of a bubble is not an easy thing, "says David Darst, chief investment strategist at Morgan Stanley Smith Barney. If growth slows too much, says, "You could have an impact, both geographically in markets that are psychologically associated with demand from China." In other words, a slowdown in China could devastate Asian economies such as Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore and reverberate among natural resource-oriented countries such as Russia, Australia, New Zealand and Brazil, who provide raw materials for China's infrastructure. Commodity prices fall. It would be a target in the U.S. too. "As we recover from here, has been in the back of China," says Kevin Carter, executive director of Alpha Shares, an NFL jerseys investment firm specializing in China. "It is the caterpillars of the world that are adding jobs." Caterpillar, a manufacturer of construction equipment, is among a large number of U.S. industries who have taken advantage of the infrastructure construction of China. (See pictures of Expo Shanghai.) China is fighting other demons as well. His most recent five-year plan, unveiled last month, emphasizes the national economy in an attempt to make the country less dependent on the rest of the world to buy what they produce. "They are accelerating urbanization on suburbanization," says Ed Yardeni, chief investment strategist of Yardeni Research. This is a natural progression, and Western nations are lining up to satisfy the appetites of an emerging middle class that has acquired a taste for cars, modern appliances and premium food. The problem is that the domestic economy has been developed. Chinese people are mostly poor; the country is ranked 130 in terms of GDP per capita. mbt shoes Relying on domestic consumers to keep growth above 8% is a risky prospect. (See pictures of Chinese workers.) Thus, while the popular bet is that China will manage until the expected slowdown develops, you may want to curb his enthusiasm a bit, to commodities and emerging market stocks, which are at higher risk. The same happens with the U.S. Infrastructure companies who have been traveling in the growth of China, such as Caterpillar, General Dynamics, Dow Chemical and Emerson Electric. In the long run, of course, the growth story is intact. If you believe that the Chinese can accurately manage its economy, then the smart move is to get positioned in domestic demand, with the global consumer stocks such as Starbucks, Nike, and Yum! Brands and P & G. But with all that China is against it, the navigation will be easy. SEOUL (AFP) - Prime Minister, David Cameron, and England personally lobby for the 2018 World Cup on the eve of the vote crisis next month, sources said Friday. Cameron will travel to Zurich in Switzerland before the vote on December 2 FIFA in a final effort to sway the vote behind England's bid and is expected to be there when the results are announced.
