Not as fast?

That means not in his lifetime.

Or anyone's, for that matter

Were's the Sow?

Expectations have to be dampened. Rome wasn't created in a day.

The Backpedaling Begins!

No Roma wasn't built in a day...
but Danilo has been sitting in the back ground with in the inner circle of this government for the last eight years? and now he needs more time? says it will take longer? Why? what did he just learn that he didn't know about from the last 8 years in government?

I don't think people are expecting miracles or things to change over night, but at the very least be a man of your word...

"Speaking in front of a group of newly, very rich PLD associates, Danilo Medina today said that he was surprised how difficult it was to do anything with Leonel Fernandez pulling the strings. He apologized for accomplishing nothing in his four years in office, but he promised that incoming president Leonel Fernandez would.

To quote Danilo, "Even though we spent and wasted soooooooooo much government money and resources in buying the recent election it would be hard to believe that there was no money left. We all know that LF is capable of opening and inaugurating hundreds of projects, most of which are designed to fill our pockets, but certainly he will try to finally do something good for the Pueblo'

"He said the conditions will set the pace of government action, "but I'm going to meet all my campaign proposals."

He said he’ll disclose how he’ll work in all areas starting August 16. "The national development strategy demands that the government establish three national agreements to work in society, a social pact, an electricity pact and a fiscal pact."


Danilo is not a dictator, if the three conditions, Social Pact, Electricity Pact and a Fiscal Pact are met, then his program may stand a chance to produce the goods. Remember, we're talking about REAL LIFE with all its possibilities. Sometimes the best made plans go astray due to nature, as in a terrible Hurricane or other nasty development. What happens if the Pacts aren't signed? Elite & leadership consensus has to emerge for the DR to advance. No President in modern times can just dictate things a la Trujillo. So if the leadership groups are willing to fulfill their responsibility his plan might stand a chan

Danilo is being prudent when he states the obvious: in order to meet our targets and plans, we need the various leadership groups to step up to the plate and contribute to the success of the plans.

Too often people are driven by tremendous expectations and believe that DR can be transformed with one election cycle. That is impossible but many, just see Josean's comments, operate under such neurosis. They hear of some new schools and state: Not enough, or "lies" and whatnot. Almost nothing satisfies or satiates their longing for things to reach the end state: A modern first world nation-state. But they don't take into account the REAL change that has taken place in DR for positive, they insist on seeing "la quinta pata" while paying lip service to real positive change in the nation. It took the nations that rank among the better nations of the world many decades and much sacrifices to achieve their levels of productivity and advancements. It will take some time for DR

luckily Danilo will do nothing that pleases Josean ,,so that means he will be doing a good job

victor!

Very well, esto no es a lo loco como el loco Hipólito!


I LOVE THE PPH

:-P

Recuerden, "PAPA" 'ta duro, frió, hiede, y muy pronto, preso comiendo SALAMI!

I'm going to use it again.....

The last time I seen that much backpedaling, it was in the De la Hoya and Trinidad fight !!!

With their Groundhog's day mentality this means NOTHING of what they promised will come to fruition.

Every little thing is gonna be alright
Weeping can only last one night
You gotta endure till the morning sun
You gonna win the race but you have to run
Trouble can never last always
Looks like I can see a brighter day
My brother, if you could just hold on
The Lord is gonna make a way I know
Every little thing is gonna be alright

Notice: how Atbaey doctored Mr. Medina's statement and left out EDUCATION!


Here is what was reported in the media without Atabey's deliberate distortion:


Danilo appears to realize the reality

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, 1 August, President-elect Danilo Medina said that he will fulfill all of his campaign promises, but at a slower pace than he originally intended. He said that he would announce his plans for fulfilling his program on 16 August, but he forewarned "...that perhaps I cannot do it at the speed that I wanted because of the conditions..

continued:

He noted that the National Development Strategy (END) establishes three priorities for the nation:

*EDUCATION,.................. electricity and taxes, which have to work in order for the country to fulfill the strategy. Medina skirted any concrete comments on the electricity situation, saying that he would work it out on 16 August or later, as quoted in El Nuevo Diario. President-elect Medina spoke upon receiving resolutions from the National Assembly (both houses of Congress) that declare him President-elect.

DR1

*I capitalized EDUCATION to point out that its Danilo's NUMBER ONE PRIORITY among his top three.

But obviously Atbaey will never acknowledge that he and LIe-onel have been WRONG and josean and the majority of the Dominican society were RIGHT!!

Its about EDUCATION and not METROS!!!!!!!!!!!

fiscal pact...hmmm. he better rethink some of the decisions that are currently in place. a 28% tax on internet service is the most backward, primitive, counterproductive idea on the planet. if government wants progress, it should be SUBSIDIZING the internet, not applying a luxury tax to it. i bet that Ferraris do not attract a 28% ITBIS. that shows the approach to education, and modernization. no country can make progress in this age without connectivity. to place a regressive tax on a vital service, making it onerous for the poor to acquire internet, is counterintuitive, irrational, and cynical.
