Today’s edition of Hoy calls attention to the concern of locals over the presence of multitudes of Haitians in regions of San Jose de las Matas. The Haitians came to work the coffee harvest and have remained in the wooded regions of the Cordillera Central range. The mayors of 42 towns that comprise the San Jose de las Matas region will convene a meeting in February with governmental and private sector groups, including officials of the Ministry of Foreign Relations and Migration Department, to address the problem.
