There Was An Entire Suppliment In "Diario Libre" a Few Days Ago On The "METRO"!
Basically an "interview" with the main supporter of the project(Pena"?)and a few other Engineers/contractors who stand to become "multi billionares" (In Pesos) as this project drags on till it's eventualy demise!
He said,"This project will go on,even though there have not been complete engineering studies,environmental studies,geological studies(Hey! No studies have been DONE!) So what? Would YOU rely on ANY study done here? Especially when those doing the study stand to make millions,depending on the results of that study???
This "Project" will do to the DR,just what the "Baninter" disaster did a few short years ago!
THe real "Winners" are the "political Parties"(AllThree!) and their "Hangers-On"! The real "Losers" will "AGAIN" be the Dominican Public,who will have to pay the "Tab"!
And "IF" it is ever finished,it will be so expensive that no "Poor" Dominican will be able to afford to ride it,and the "Rich",who can afford it,will NEVER ride it!!
The "cheapest" form(After Walking)of transportation is riding a bicycle.Have you EVER seen ANYONE on a Bicycle? Those who tried,died!!
The Government can't run a "Pulico",a "Gua-Gua Line",bus line,so how can they run a "METRO"??
At least it is "Fun" watching these idiots try.
I love to say, "I Told You So!"..."What A Country!"
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
I just wish they would have started the "Artificial Island" project,the "Train" to Santiago,and most "Fun" of all "The Nuclear Power Plant"!
"Can you say"The DR is uninhabitable for 250,000 years???!
