Dr Goes Primetime
Didn't watch it neither but will try to catch it tonight at 11PM EST ..
They did a similar feauture about Dubai which I really enjoyed very much.
here is the DR1 Tavel News story,
ON The Money is a great show. It's also very popular so this is great publicity for DR.
They visited an Indian and Pakistani construction workers' camp for their Dubai special.

I think you misunderstood me - watched On the Money tonight but no mention of the show. Agree with you that it is a great show...just wondering when the one on DR is going to air...thanks Tom
I noticed the date on the dr1 Travel News is July 18 so it could be that "scheduled to air at 7pm this Monday" means Monday of next week.

Kerry Sander is a big shot, serious NBC reporter

The first time I read it, I too actually thought DR1 had made a mistake .
bu upon second reading it seem dr1 is merely paraphrasing Nery Ynclan as saying she knows for a fact Kerry is in touch with a realtor, " She reports that interviewer Kerry Sanders was so enamored that he's (i.e. Kerry Sander) in touch with a realtor about buying some land."
She (Nery Ynclan) is also saying she liked DR and will vacation with her family in the island soon, "and that she herself (i.e. Nery Ynclan) would be returning to a villa on the north coast with her family in the spring. "

He (i.e. Kerry Sander) is contemplating/planning on buying Dominican real estate
She (Nery Ynclan) will probably vacation in DR (along with her family) during the spring.

Below find an email I was forwarded this am on the above mentioned show - can't wait to watch it...tom
After speaking with the producer last night it looks like, if all goes well, that we will appear next Monday July 24 2006 at 7 pm. The segment on the Dominican Republic totaled 7 minutes and can be seen on the show ON THE MONEY CNBC.

It's going to drive prices through the roof.....for everything. How is this good.....unless of coarse you're business is shleping brewskis on the beach......and if you're in real estate you can start polishing up your cheezy grin...
I spoke to a friend of mine a little while ago who caught the tail-end of the DR segment tonight... I forgot to watch tonight... after being frustrated last night. I hope they re-air it on the 24th!! If anyone taped it and can port it to an mpg or avi file, i'd love to see it!!!

Good for the economy. Good for the locals (eventually). Good for those who already own. Good for tourism. All positive for the DR as a whole. If the report had been all negative would that have been better??? Tom

How are prices for everything increasing going to help the rank and file. I guess I better unbusy myself and get the hell down there and buy.

Don't wish to argue but again I ask - Would it have been better if the report was all negative?
Simple economics suggests that with growth, jobs will be created for the 'rank and file' that allows them to purchase items (even at higher prices) that were previously unattainable. As well growth does not necessarly have to lead to price inflation. Tom

Here's what may happen .....price inflation, a given........real estate speculation for sure......the rank and file moving from the countryside to slum like conditions in order to gain employment for poverty wages. A population fed up with liberal foreign property ownership laws......you see where this may go...better to be under the radar screen.
This should be a seperate thread.gary short said:
Or this may happen....with strong economic growth, the peso will appreciate against foreign currencies. Since the DR is an import nation (for the most part) this will create better purchasing power and thus price deflation. This will create further investment, better infrastructure and higher wages as employment rates rise. You can see where this may go...tom
