The DR1 News Service will not be updated tomorrow, 21st January 1999. The 21st commemorates the Day of the Virgen de la Altagracia, patron saint of Dominicans. The news service will resume on Friday, 22nd January with compilations of headline news stories from the 21st and 22nd news sources. Note that Monday, 25th January is also a holiday in the DR. The 25th commemorates the birthday of Juan Pablo Duarte, forefather of the Dominican nationality. As a result, Dominicans are in for the treat of a very long weekend.
