Balaguer was the second best.

RAFAEL LEONIDAS TRUJILLO MOLINA
True, he was not a perfect president and I do not agree with ALL
of his methods, politics and doings.
Keeping in mind the times, moral codes and religious convictions of the era, the country has not seen better times-days since his ERA, I.E:
-Economy- RD$ value over US$- worldwide
-Education- all levels- plus incentives for higher education.
-Unemploynment- lowest ever
-Illiteracy- lowest ever- per capita
-Crime- lowest ever
-Art - all areas
-Drama
-Sports in general
-Eternal debt to USA paid in FULL (Presently owed?..............)
-General population high self esteem
-General population positive ethnicity reputation and
-recognition outside RD.
-Best general public utilities- ALL- per se
-Assistance to the poor program and " feeding the hungry daily"
-Best ever Armed Forces & Police- trained & equipped.
- World Wide recognition as one of the cleanest City.
Just to name a few.
