In an open letter in page two of the "Diario Libre" most read morning newspaper in the DR, editor Adriano Miguel Tejada writes an open letter to a US congresswoman, referring to her in jest, for the recent headlines of the California congresswoman, who had questions about the selling of the Dominican petroleum refinery to the Venezuelan government.
He does imply that the AID or other agencies of the US government are funding ONG's such as:
"Participación Ciudadana" and others including "Toy Jarto" who recently campaigned against the building of the cement plant in "Los Haitises".

Letter to a congresswoman

Distinguished United States congresswoman:
To you, the representatives of the voters of the USA, that like to go around sticking your noses in our nations affairs, and the truth be told, you stick your noses in your own affairs as well.
I am going to expose a topic that is going to be of your interest, and for which you are not going to be accused of meddling in the sovereign affairs of our country (DR),
even though I warn you that you can be accused of many other things.
It is about the wasteful spending of the federal funds of the AID and other agencies of the US government, like the CIA, FBI, the NSA and who knows how many more.
See here:
Your embassy thought that they could find a few “useful idiots” (native sycophants we called them in other times) so they will organize and direct campaigns for “public morality”, and “against corruption” and for those they were created organizations with catchy names like “Participación”, “Coordinadora”, “Foro”, and the boys invented popular names like: “Revuelta”, “Multitud”, and a long one, and were greased by US public funds.
The reality is that when a public meeting or demonstration is called, because of the few participants, it doesn’t seem that all the sum total of the organizations are represented. Because of that, something is happening with the money.
I am not saying that all of them are receiving funds (see “useful idiots”), but surely some wise guys are keeping some money. Investigate.
Signed. An anonymous “Jarto”.

Those I consider pretty serious accusations even though they seemed to be written in jest, and with a satyric tone.
These organizations should reveal their source of funding, of they will have lost any credibility, that they might have had in the past.

generoso they saying that group "toy jarto" is part of the scheme?

That is one of the things that really upset me. It looks like as usual we are being taken for a ride by the big boys.
The editor of Diario Libre only made subliminally references to all the organizations, but it doesn't take an Einstein to figure out who he was talking about.
The editor signed the letter as "jarto".

sin prueba no se puede juzgar. it could all be a trick by the establishment. remember most of our powerful people in our country were for the podersos de santiago to built the cementera. These powerful people after the entire country got together against the cementera changed their position. Estos podersosos cambiaron su aceptacion por la cementera y se pusieron con el pueblo para salvar su pellejo politico. fue una de las poca veces que nuestro pueblo dominicanos se has unido por un proposito unido. por eso har que ser cautos sobre esa carta.

I see what you mean, and you could be correct as well. It is an old leftist trick to accuse progressive organizations of being funded by the CIA, FBI and NSA. It is still a cheap shot, from somebody who is supposed to be "a serious and credible opinion maker" like Adriano Tejada.

generoso take for instace the situation in Honduras. the worst case scenary for the lefty was that the US came out right away against the coup. Now they cant go to the people and blame the usa like they always do and then all hell break lose. if bush would had been in power a few days later after the coup Zelayas would had been restore back and Honduras would had been safe for a long time by the ultra left. I think Obama played it brilliantly opposing the coup right away taking the ultra lefty sword away.

This Zelaya guy was nothing but a big poser and a clown, always wearing that stupid "namebrand" cowboy hat even while wearing a suit and tie, the military did the right thing and kicked the joker out.
Now we need the macho's in Venezuela to get rid of Chavez and then the senile Castro brothers, without the crutch of Chavez oil, Cuba's democracy will finally come to past, for the benefit of all humanity.

Dios Patria Libertad or Muerte.
