Those motorcycles in new radios will be really handy and till they stop working correctly in about 2 weeks. Those guys sitting on El Conde will be altering the radios for the cops so they can steal cell phone service. Don't be surprised to see pizza and Kentucky Fried Chicken deliveries on really fancy new bikes at night.

Oh Oh just where are those Harley junks. And that folks was another fernandex scandal along with the piggie,

From the "The more things change, the more they remain the same" Department:

In an interview on the Tele Matutino show by Ramon Nunez Ramirez and Jackeline Morel, Montas argued that the Dominican Republic is second to Guatemala in the lowest public spending in the region. He said that the fiscal deficit was mainly caused by the rising electricity subsidy and the major investment in infrastructure projects that former President Leonel Fernandez pushed to complete before his administration came to an end.


To date, the government has not reduced staff numbers in government offices after initial dismissals were met with protests from employees who alleged they were protected civil servants. The same political party continues in power and Montas is serving in the same post he held under the former Fernandez administration.

Wrong before there was josean member #76 there was a jb member # 59!

If there is going to be 300 Agents in the Zona Colonial there will be more Agents than tourists!

Josie please bring back JIM HARRINGTON and leave JB alone.

Zona Colonial, uhhhhh bad news for DK; I can see the potential for a sudden hourly onset of “Senile Fecal Incontinence”, accompany by “Senile Dementia” dike' pa’ q le cojan penas.

We cannot exercise self-sufficiency even for the most basic needs. Why is it that we must be standing with our hand extended for help for everything we do? why can't we pay for this ourselves?

We are like a "welfare state", with many benefactors. That's why I find it laughable whenever I read commentaries here on our impending emergence as a First World Nation. This is more than laughable, it is preposterous. We are so far from that objective, that it should not prove possible in 100 years, if not a millenium.

Perhaps a massive infusion of realism should be in order.

MJEV.

Zona colonial does NOT need so many agents on ..it is a waste of money . but of course, just like the proposed security cameras it will either not happen or be short lived,
What Zona colonial does need is all the roads towards Villa Francisca being repaired after the new pipes were installed ,,at the top end of Calle A Merino and Isobel la Catolica and the streets between there is nothing but slush and mud .Secondly the police station near to Parque Espana needs to have proper windows and a few chairs and a proper interviewing room .
At present the police during the day sit on corners doing nothing it is when the sun has gone down that problems commence and then 4 or 5 bikes with armed police would be very helpful , If they had nothing else to do they might as well get rid of all the stray and ferrel dogs that seem to have multiplied at a rapid rate

Over all your comentes you are probblaly right . But at least is star, is something we know allmost everything in this area and is well documented You know guys what I meant

30 bikes, and 50 radios. that does not have a combined value exceeding the cost of one of the apartments Leo and Miss Thing gave away to their friends and relatives. embarrassing.

Who goes to the Colonial Zone anyway? Certainly not foreign tourists - there's nothing to see or do there, except buy plastic souvenirs made in China, go to Pizza Hut or get harassed by beggars, prostitutes and evangelists. Oh and five minutes to see all the actual colonial stuff.

Sorry Roy but you are not correct on thi issue ..you might just try making a booking at the hotels in ZC to see that most are very full . There are annoyances but in fact there are wonderful old churches, museums , gallaries and even homes that sit together with very interesting little bars ..I still find new things there to interest me..it is the only part of the capital that has anything of interest . Oh I forgot to say that the residents there are from a variety of places and are always wanting to engage in conversation .

Ricky, I have stayed in a hotel in the Colonial Zone. I was expecting much from such a historically significant location - No replica of the Santa Maria? No waxwork figures of Columbus or Taino Indians? No re-enactments of historical events? No museum? No art gallery? No live traditional music? No actors in historic costumes? These things could be unique to the Dominican Republic. Instead we have mediocre beaches, booze, brawls, bars and Bachata.

Ware did all the money promised for the CZ go. Some one must have it or it was just wish thinking and political cosmetics. The same jumble of wires and leaning phone poles are still here that were put in after hurricane David are still doing all the work. Just cleaning up all the jumbled phone and power cables would be an improvement but then the tourist's would have nothing to take pictures of and laugh at.

That's F@#%$g deep Roy!!

Imagine, instead of the government lending its streets for prostitution and setting a budget aside for it, the government could invest in in a Theatrical Ambiance and Sculptures and close ZC for pedestrian access only.

Pedestrian access only? What world do you live in. some one injured the rescue have to carry them to Palo Hincado hope it is you. How do tourists get to hotels carry their bags to the hotel 10 blocks away. How does the president go to mass. On foot? All would have to close their shops and what if a fire just wait until they set up a bucket brigade. Get REAL.

ciber,==2**s

Roy, try harder to see museums & historical sites. I saw a lot in my 1st 2 weeks. I agree about the naked Taino girls, though!

Roy I lived in the colonial city heart for 14 years and you are so wrong ......The changues and improvements have Been many ,mostly due to the caring of extranjeros both european and norte americanos .I love to see the care with which some of these buildings Have Been resto red at great expense......The government needs to step up and show some foresight....and Roy please tell me of a better Carribbean museum than Casas Reales.....it does not exist......Do not delay San Juan and Havana Have better plans for their Colonial Heritage......SD. Better get with it

Lie-onel has a plan for the Colonial for 2016, he plans to raze it and build a COSTCO!

Sandusky is saying some positive "stuff" for a change; In fact, we HAVE a property in La General Cabral, this house has been in our family for over 80 some years. Sandusky forgot to mention La Casa de Duarte and the Alcazar de Colon (Bartolome). The majority of the houses in La Isabel and La Merino are well preserved and in good shape. Now, if you move farther towards La Avenida Espana and Santa Barbara to include the church it is a different story.

Sandusky tu sabes donde esta la famosa “CEIBA de Colon”( that is where the old Customs warehouses were located), down farther, was the "old CED Planta, and the Puente Duarte, as well as La Clinica de Saiter. Heads up DK...!!!!.

PS: VALERIO FYI, this is in SD.

DK, the ball is on your part of the court!!!!! make your move...just make sure that you do not make any regrettable moves.

Please understand, this is not a threat...... you probably have paid off half of the PN in the CZ. "Trust me I will find out in a few days. See yaaaa.

BLUTARSKY , i hope that you can sleep with the noise the motorcycles will produce all night.

Remember my folks are just a few mns away from you. In fact,you probably know some them. Take care.

Wolfy I no longer live there so car alarms set off by Harley's are just a memory ...a bad one

DK,

Your are going to be wakened up to another different sound........ BACHATA Y PERICO COURTESIA DE TU SANKY LOVER FROM PP.
