JG - Haitian dancers fire up north-coast clubs

Jamaica Gleaner

Haitian dancers fire up north-coast clubs

published: Sunday July 6, 2008

THE GUNS-for-drugs trade between Jamaica and Haiti has taken an exotic twist as female nationals from the French-speaking country are now providing entertainment at some of the popular nightspots on the island's north coast.

Read the whole article here.

Snippet(s):

"The Sunday Gleaner reported recently that the Haitian women, on most occasions, arrived as part of the barter agreement.

The report also disclosed that in order to survive, the women accepted meagre wages, sometimes as low as $250 per day, to work in bars, shops and other small businesses. "
