Haiti gets colourful makeover

This was quite the buzz a few weeks ago, and even though bright and colorful homes do look pretty, when I think about a bit longer, I definitely see that this is only attempting to mask the problems many Haitian citizens are faced with. Likely, I'm sure many of the residents are happy and can gain some form of satisfaction from the colorful homes and it's view from a distance, but I think it's so superficial and a waste of money.

Supposedly this cost $1.4 million.
