'Sweet Micky' takes oath as Haiti's president |
2011-05-15 |
[Asia One] Michel Martelly, a charismatic singer with no government experience, was sworn in as Haiti's president on Saturday, shouldering a daunting task of reconstruction in the poor, earthquake-battered nation. Couldn't be any worse than the leadership they've had in the past... The shaven-headed former entertainer, 50, took the oath of office before Haiti's national assembly in a prefabricated UN-supplied structure erected on the site of the old parliament building destroyed by last year's earthquake. |
