Presidents of Mexico and the Dominican Republic, Felipe Calderon and Leonel Fernandez.
Mexico City.- The Dominican Republic and Mexico
signed a statistic cooperation agreement to establish and develop
exchange programs, Mexican authorities revealed.
According to the
National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI), the
cooperation would include work organization, census and opinion polls
methodology, social and demographic statistics as well as economic
report systems.
"In order to reach these goals, it will be an
exchange of knowledge through participation of specialized staff and
investigators, as well as the delivery of statistic information and
scientific articles of investigation," the INEGI said.
The
INEGI and the Dominican Republic's Office of Statistics would jointly
organize seminars, conferences and training courses to exchange
information.

Wow that is really going to be a worthwhile project...I don't think!!
Seems to me to be another way for additional family members to be employed with high salaries producing a load of worthless paperwork at the taxpayers expense.

not necessarily so ..maybe a good way to improve knowledge ..the proper collection of information and how to read and use the information is vitally important to any planning ..and at present i do not have much confidence in many figures that are released here in the DR ..I do not know if Mexico is any better

More family positions for corrupt officials. Only thing this means to us average citizens is another way to steal our tax money.

you people are so negative in your comments ..no where does it say that there will be more positions and planning and good administration is based on sound reliable information and statistics ..if you just read what the article says you will see that this all about training and what this country needs is good training and education

From: Dominican Republic, vieja Santo Domingo
YES probably you are right and in another section here , it points out how much Dominicans change when they go to North America and can see nothing good in their homeland ..maybe as justification for leaving ..but there are people here in the DR who are trying to make this country a better place

Anyone recall the expression "there are lies,damned lies and statistics" ! Anything they come up with, by improving methodology, will undoubtedly be used to "prove" how wonderful everything is and what a good job the Government is doing enhancing everyones life
