OH YEAH IF YOU WANT IT INVESTIGATED TAHT WILL BE EXTRA.......NOT REPORTED IT DIDN'T HAPPEN It's true that police discourages it to report it, since they're pretty much useless in case of robery (actually, theyre useless at anything). The media isn't reporting it so much cause it has become common. As most things in the DR, the society has accepted that crime is another daily hassle of their lifes. Unfortunately I don't have to much hope in the situation changing at all..., only worsen. Foreigners aren't the only victims here, I know of a lot of dominican people that they got robbed. One friend has been robbed 3 times in a period of 12 months. 3 TIMES!!!!!. No bad luck is so punishing!. I would suggest death sentence for any scumbag that is caught robbing with a gun (a kind of attempted murder), but we have two problems with it: the metro has taken all the electricity to power up a electric chair, and soon gas prices will be too high to burn the crooks... I can tolerate high prices, I can tolerate traffic and tapones on the street, I can tolerate undiscriminated construction... but crime... honestly that scares the hell out of me... CUAL PARTE EN DR HIZO LLEGAR SU AMIGO GOT ROBBED? IS IT AS BAD IN PUERTO PLATA, SOSUA AND CABARETE TOO? I THOUGHT MOST OF THE CRIME WAS IN SANTO DOMINGO. WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED, IT MIGRATED TO OTHER PARTS NOW? IS CAMPO, DR AS BAD? ANYWAYS, THAT IS WHY I ALWAYS GO THERE WITH MY GUN JUST IN CASE. AY DIABLO, AHORA DR ES TAN Y MUY PELIGROSO, Y LOS TIGRES NO SE JUEGAN MAS. ENTONCES, ME DEBO IR CON MI MADRE ESTE MES PORQUE ELLA QUIERE IR A VOTAR.

I have not held a Dominican nor Haitian passport since then, so I figured it was automatic that I did not have the right to vote there in neither places (DR and Haiti) because of the Double nationality doubts I had until recently somebody had told me that I could indeed actually vote because my mother is a Dominican citizen and owns properties there. So next election I will try to register to vote, I am not sure... I will have to research this further and wait and see. I have to go now, Will PS: Yeah, things are quiet where I am here in Costombar (Puerto Plata) and it will be a lot more when I get to Campo Friday. Where in DR are you at, bro?

First i had to get my original Birth Certificate, legalized, at the Dominican Consular in Miami, then i hired, a lawyer in the DR, to do the rest.

I'm thinking about heading out there early next wk. Wow, okay!!! I will do that!!! So I could vote next Election. It is funny, most of the people I talk to here do not like Leonel. In the Country here itself there is this sense of Anti-Leonelism yet he is ahead in the poll. How does that work and how is that so when a lot of people do not like him? I remember last summer during some of the primaries most of the town where I am at right now voted against him. There was another place not too far from Puerto Plata called Cangrejo also 98% voted against him. I am slightly confused. They say how come he had time and money devoted to the Metro while many can not feed themselves without even jobs to be able to do just that? It is going to divide the Country for the next few months of any presidential terms here in DR. This election year, there are less tourits I was told thus that puts a set back on the actual economy here on the ground and food are expensive now, believe it or not. With 300 pesos 6 months ago, I was able to eat,drink and with change back to take a motoconcho and be able to tip the waiter, the motoconcho driver and give some to the kids I was cool with on the block. Now, the food takes all that 300 pesos. You need a good 600 pesos to eat in the Streets of Puerto Plata. Hell the Brahma here is 80 pesos now, which was way cheaper than the Presidente which is now 100 pesos that I used to get from locals for 70 pesos. SOmething is terribly wrong here. What the hell is happening to the world people!!!!? Wilgeens Rosenberg "That Dominican-Haitian-Jewish Kid" HispanolanoYoSoy Wilgeens.Rosenberg@gmail.com |
