Just came back from Lifestyles Resorts ground breaking ceremony in the presence of President Danilo Medina. The ceremony started at 11.30 am, the president arrived at 11.15am...total respect! He has an excellent reputation for arriving on time or early and many times even un-announced. He sets a perfect example, just a shame that many don't see things the same way as he does...Anthony Santos always turns up about 2 to 3 hours late for his concerts, but a world leader can arrive early. Love him or hate him, that is your own opinion, but I have complete respect for him.

President Danilo Medina does not arrive on time, he arrives early!
Exactly...Dominicans know what's up. They know it they say 9:00 AM it's probably starting at 10:00 or 10:30, so why show up that "early".
Besides Anthony Santos can show up as late as he wants, because after all he's "El Mayimbe" and puts on the best show of any
Domincian artist by far. He shows up at 2:00 AM, but plays non-stop until 6:00 AM while the others are done in an hour or hour and half. The public always leaves satisfied and feeling like they got their money's worth.
Good for Danilo though...I hope this doesn't become a trend in The DR though...It would be hard to change those habits.
He is pretty well organized. He often comes down the street of my occasional work and all the cars on his route are pulled onto the left side of the road, on every street through the capital. If the owners are not about then the cars are towed away, and within a few minutes of the final car being towed away he comes by, like clockwork. I presume this is fine timing and he is not waiting around the corner for them to be towed off.
