President Fernández says governing DR is difficult

President Leonel Fernández said in Boston that governing the DR is difficult. He said that traditionally the President is seen as the person who has to resolve all problems, even the personal problems of citizens. He advocated for carrying out an institutional reform that will better define the role and functions of the President. Fernández answered questions after being honored by the Harvard Foundation of the University of Harvard. He received an award for being a modern symbol of support to democracy, social reform and the promotion of relations between his country and the Caribbean and regional integration.
