hello, my friend. oh, wait, let me wash my hands. hello, my frie... my friend? hello? why you walk away, my friend?

i would have forgotten, please find below a much better version of this article that makes just as much sense:
The representative of the Rotary Club of Sosua, you Loly de Esca?o announced the launch of handwashing campaigns in schools and other public places.
Loly de Esca?o said that both the government Dominican Rotary clubs and other institutions to support this campaign handwashing. In Sosua started a campaign among students of Colegio Luis Hess. It started with information by a health practitioner who has brought health benefits handwashing for students. In the Dominican Republic at each meeting widely handshake is part of the culture. But often shaking hands is also a source of transmission of infectious diseases. Wash your hands before shaking them, is a good protection against infection.

this guy needs to stop. i understand his literary ambitions but for the love of god, if you need to use google translate to write in english, consider sticking to your native language.

I worked at this retreat center and we were wasting hundreds of dollars by putting those tiny hotel bars of soap in the guest rooms. They only cost about 10 cents each but it was adding up(health code wouldn't allow bigger bars). So we switched over to pump soap to save on costs. But then people were actually stealing the pump soap dispensers and they were talking about going back to the tiny bar soaps, which were costing us close to $1000 a year~ for soap! We ended up fixing the prob by drilling holes in the tops of the dispensers. The pumps still worked, but they'd make a huge mess if someone decided to take them.

Promoting hand washing is all fine and good in the DR, but they are going to have to figure out how to prevent theft of soap. It's hard enough to keep them from them stealing toilet paper..

diogenes of sinope seeing a rough looking musician commented: it is remarkable that with such face he chose a career in music and not in assault. here all i can say is that i will never stop being puzzled that a person with such language skills settled for journalism...

Fix a liquid soap dispenser to the wall. In many hotels now even the shower gel and shampoo is done like that.

My experience is that hand shaking is less common in the DR than in the US. Here there have been times when I held out my hand the person offered his arm for me to grip rather than his hand. I never experienced that in the US.

I think this is usually done if the person has wet or dirty hands.

It's all good if public banos in places like restaurants actually had soap and paper towels.

That's very true Frank, some of the bathrooms are very poor and not just in Dominican establishments!
