Hipólito Mejía on the campaign trail for the PRD in the Northeast, Nagua, denounced that sectors linked to the PLD government have a plan to import rice, milk and meat for RD$20-RD$25 million for personal profit. He said that those that would carry out the imports could care less for national production. He criticized that those imports would enter duty free. He also criticized the government for maintaining debts with producers. Hipólito campaigned over the weekend in Rio San Juan, Nagua and Samana.
