Senator for Santo Domingo Jose Antonio Najri said that power has become the big headache of the Dominican people. He complained that the two largest power distributors, Edenorte and Edesur justified the increase in their rates because of the hike in world oil prices. But these prices have been dropping, and still there have been no announcements of rate reductions. He criticized these companies for not behaving with the high business standards that are expected of them. Edenorte and Edesur are affiliates of Union Fenosa of Spain.
