Michel Martelly’s inauguration on May 14th brings into effect a new Haitian constitution. This document was drafted and voted on so quickly that, when the parliamentary session closed, the president of the assembly had no time to reread to the lawmakers the amendments on which they had voted the two previous days. The new constitution will be published in French. The version of the old 1987 Constitution in Haitian Creole will not be amended. In effect, this will leave Haiti with one constitution for the rich and another for the poor.
