The one thing i have seen in the progress in the island on both sides is that we are not falling in the steps of many latin american countries where they are leapfrogging on 1st world countries technology but taking chances on new ideas and if they work then progress will be seen in a much faster phase. Another thing is people taking it to them selves to move DR forward on their own and not wait for politicians to do anything. I have a couple of friends/cousins that have projects in mind just like me and i wish more of us will start forgetting that politicians will bring the light and start bringing it our selves by using what a lot of us in DR already know. It will take somebody to lead that way and i hope that somebody rises up sooner than later.

will you stuff still be at home when you leave? Or do you have to have 24/7 guard at this place?

You talking about progress right? I'm posting one of the reason why Haiti got stuck in 1804 and why DR moved forward in our moder history. My back I know you dont know jack about spanish let me get it for you in english the last two paragraph.


Haiti after its independence in 1804, virtually prevented the immigration of people with advanced ideas, given the constitutional principle that prevented those who were not of blacks to own property there. The Spanish Santo Domingo, however, encouraged the immigration of groups of Jewish immigrants from Curacao, canaries, Lebanese, Palestinians, Cubans, Puerto Ricans, Germans, French and Italian, among others. It was precisely the Cuban exiles as a result of the first war of Cuban independence from 1868-78, who developed the modern Dominican sugar industry.


Professor Diamond, while acknowledging the differences of character and environmental material between the two countries, including the geopolitical challenges facing Haiti as the first country to be emancipated slave, ascribed to the Dominicans have not closed off and never having taken a number of provisions protecting their environment, giving the doctor Joaquín Balaguer credit for the courageous steps taken with the closure of sawmills and the militarization of forest control in his first government in 1966, and other measures taken in government since 1986, and close mills allowed to operate in the 1978-86 period and carry out military operations against illegal logging, removal of squatters from national parks - the Haitises in 1992 - and the creation of protected areas and laws aimed at eliminating our dependence on trees for construction and Creole cooking. Diamond hoped that other leaders have the guts to Balaguer.

This area is monitored by security 24/7 as now it is closed circuited with cameras and lighting. This video was actually taking during the initial building phase of the area which was in 2006-2007 ... Now you should see it, it is magnificent. Much and just like you see it done in DR developers hire and contract their own security companies.

If you have read the intent for this thread it says:
"This thread is for both Haitians and Dominicans to post signs of positive progresses and more... e.g Pictures, images or videos of great things."

Thus a criticized analysis article as to why Haiti is still behind is not indicative of progress. This is you trying to tarnish a thread with criticisms instead of participating in the positivity of it. You can question my spanish all you want, I get by just fine thank you (lol). Oh I am sorry that I have several other languages that I speak that Spanish is not the only one my attention span is focused on.

Afro can you get a grip of yourself and stop bitching and complaining that everything is about racism. I gave you a clue about the progress of both nation and the roots to its problem.

Again, I know reading is not your thing and all. However, where in this paragraph do you see the word racism or it pertains to racism here? We are not asking for roots of problems, we are asking for actual "Image, photos and videos" of signs of progress and even if you were to post an article; it would have to be an article which report a positive improvement on something alone and not tricking failure comparisons or where either nations went wrong.

Indeed, he will be missed dearly. Please, let us bow our heads in a moment of silent and empty posted replies in honor of the departure of one of our greatest DT contributor to have ever posted on here Bell's man, sound the bells please

For those of you who wish to pay tribute to AfroLatino's unjustified ban, you may commence your empty posted replies now by doing so with a single red "d.t" as a reply or your words of condolences.

Dude, you seriously need to stop relying on Google Language Tools when writing in Spanish!

Also for English.
