In 1980, when he was about 12 years old that all began to change, he and all those around him needed to be more cautious about their surroundings.

Imagine yourself as a businessperson on a trip to the island of Hispaniola to check on how production is faring. You land in Santo Domingo to transfer to a short commuter flight to Port-au-Prince.
