******* WHERE THE MONEY COMES FROM ? *******************

I deeply believe that save the money for the festivals and help those needy people is much more meaningful........

DR wants to learn from those "Western Countries" showing phony things, yet, there are millions people need help much more urgent than this phony things.

I have been passing those 5 big concrete boxes on the Malecon for months and wondering what stupidity could they be ......for the life of me I could not figure out how you could make a buck with them or make anybody happy with them ....now it is apparent the are 5 separate platforms to accommodate 5 different acts or bands .....it is brilliant and I commend who ever thought of it ...it allows acts to start one after the other and there will be no loss of fan enthusiasm .....This will be a festival to remember and there will be a lot of foreign press.....It could really put this festival on the Map

Yes it will be a great time there and Dominicans know how to sing and dance and party on better than any other people I know ..I really love the New Years Eve celebrations in the capital and I think this will be better .

Now people can't have fun because of the "needy". There are too many problems in our country and in the rest of the world and most of the people can't do anything about it anyway, the "needy" will always exist. I say enjoy life and have fun.

Yes, I agree with Trujillo. DR has so many unresolved issues, which can't be solved overnight.
This concert will make the people at least forgot them.
