Guillermo Caram, speaking in the name of the Partido Reformista Social Cristiano, the leading opposition party, he said that the first six months of the Mejia government have been full of disappointments, impetuousness and improvisations. He said that this attitude is creating social nervousness. He commented on the police confrontation with physicians of the Dominican Medical Association that would have marched to protest a social security bill. Caram said that the measures taken by the government to introduce reforms in the police by decree to correct excesses of that institution before the physicians are nothing but another manifestation of impetuousness and improvisation. "This government so far has been disappointing, we have not seen any concrete realization, nor achievement on behalf of the authorities, of the government; all there have been are preparations and announcements that seek to compensate the present deficiencies with future promises," he told El Siglo newspaper. He said that the government has spent its time naming commissions that resolve nothing. He said that the government bureaucracy has considerably increased and that at this pace the money for social welfare will be consumed by personnel expenditures. He said there is a hypertrophied public administration.
