Sad.....
Asamblea revierte libre acceso de ciudadanos a playas y costas - DiarioLibre.com
Now Hotels are the owners of the beach? Does this mean I can't go to playa dorada anymore?
What a shame!
This new constitution is INCREDIBLE! It has moved so far to the left in some cases and then so far right in other cases, and has left the populous devoid of any real rights.
I recall reading the previous constitution and understood that at the very least, the nation's natural resources were owned by the public. I thought that was a great stance and that even though some large businesses infringed on that right, "we," the people, still owned those resources.
Not anymore. The beaches are now private and now leads me to believe that there are more loopholes in this new Constitution that will allow business interests to usurp all public resources, as long as they have the cash to do so.
It fascinates me. Dominicans get all angry about the Haitises Park and have a great concert, yet I have heard a peep from anyone, regarding the continued limitation and elimination of Dominican's rights.
But, hey, is a right a right, if you don't exercise it? In this case, no.
