Go ahead for Monte Plata games?

Despite the fact that the billionaire infrastructure built by the past government for the Pan American Games is in a state of practical abandonment, the government could be considering completing the Monte Plata installations for the Monte Plata National Games. In the Dominican Republic, almost all large installations built for the national sports games quickly fall into abandonment, with those built for the Pan Am Games no exception.

The Mejia administration had started the Monte Plata installations and now the governor of Monte Plata announces these will be completed. Engineer Ricardo Contreras says that the works will be priority for the government and will be included in the 100-day priority, as reported in Listin Diario. The Mejia government left the installations 30% completed. The new date is December 2005.
