I am sure many of you have been there, but let me share a recent annecdote.
This time I sent a dominican architect to cabarete to enquire about planning approval. The "official" whom we refer to as "the fat controller" {from thomas the tank engine} who is dripping in gold, closes his eyes and waves his hand over the paper work, much like a healer and comes up with a fee of RD$60.000. The receipt he says will be for RD$10.000-you know the rest!
Now I don't mind helping to buy another gold knome to put around his neck, but who's going to help me lift him into the pool.
Seriously does anyone know how to circumvent this character?
