Haiti Duvaliers
When an earthquake strikes - even well-governed, rich countries struggle to cope. But Haiti's long history of dictatorships and corruption means it is suffering even more in the current situation.
Papa Doc, and Baby Doc Duvalier were the infamous father and son rulers of Haiti who helped strip the country of its resources, and leave it mired in a culture of fear and misrule. A history which makes it even less able to cope with the aftermath of an earthquake. Witness hears from Lord Leslie Griffiths about his time in Haiti, and his meetings with both father and son.
