So it turns out the VCS mining company that has drilled the Morne Bossa project is quite controversial, after the 2010 earthquake Tony Rodham, Hillary Clinton's brother proposed to help rebuild homes which never took place though soon later he joined the advisory board of VCS mining company targeting gold in Haiti.
It has been known for many years Haiti is rich in resources and makes you ask the question if the Clintons had ulterior motives for wanting to assist in the recovery.
Following the 2010 Haiti earthquakeand with Bill Clinton co-chair of the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission, Rodham and some partners proposed a $22 million deal to rebuild homes in the devastated nation, with funding to come from the Clinton Foundation.[8] The deal never went forward and the Clinton Foundation said it was unaware of the proposal.[8] In October 2013, Rodham joined the advisory board of VCS Mining, a Delaware-based company that was planning a gold mine in the Cap-Haïtien Arrondissement area of Haiti.[32] By 2015 the project had become controversial due to possible environmental effects and the level of foreign ownership; for his part Rodham objected to any inference that he had gotten this position due to his family.
On February 19, 2016 he resigned as a board member from VCS Mining as part of a "restructuring plan" with no disagreement among the parties implied.
