The National Postal Office announced that the city will soon begin to implement a modern postal code system. The system will serve to expedite distribution of letters, but will also help to organize the city. Pending for the actual implementation is that the President issues a decree to the effect. An educational campaign is planned to help explain to Dominicans the benefits and how to use it. Eugenio Enrique Disla of the post office said that the new system will bring relief to situations such as two streets with the same name and streets without names. "This code is so precise that we can combine it with the numbers of our houses," he said. "There are more than 10 million combinations to this code that starts in 0," he explained.
