SANTO DOMINGO.- The Government, averting getting caught ‘asando batatas’, will hold a Cabinet Meeting next week to review a series of commitments assumed with various sectors, although the Presidency’s Chief of Staff Cesar Pina affirmed that the agreements reached have been gradually met.
He said in Wednesday’s meeting the points which have already been fulfilled will be discussed and according to the schedule, will immediately go to work on those pending. "A public review will be done on the status of these agreements, those cases that have been solved will be announced and the proposals which are going to be handled in the immediate future.”
Citizens across the country have embraced the new "pilgrimage" modality as the way to protest, even to the National Palace to demand community works.
The official said that since the first of those activities were successful, others have imitated it.
"I urge the officials, particularly the Cabinet officers, responsible for topics which are object of demands, as soon as that type of activity is announced, to make contact with their organizers so that they can offer the correspondent responses,” Pina said.

"asando batatas’," is not "hoeing turnips" it is baking or roasting yams!
You like tomato and I like tomahto;
Potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto!
Let's call the whole thing off!...............................A Yam is a potato sort of ....its a sweet potato
Those masked Town's People.....Nothing like looting, burning, rioting and stopping the Towns economic structure for a couple more Days.
Then the same masked Men [minus the masks] will return after the aftermath look at their self made destruction and lawlessness.
Then demand the Gov. help with assistance and when that does not work......Nothing like a little more self made DESTRUCTION......
I'm so proud of my People.
REAL SMART....
God save the DR, from our selves.
God save the DR.
