Social media is full of comments criticizing the US$1,000 per person luncheon talk-interview that former President Leonel Fernandez is giving at the Embassy Suites Hotel on Av. Tiradentes in Santo Domingo tomorrow, Wednesday, 5 November 2014. Acento.com.do reports that a group of young people is organizing a protest against the former President.
The talk-interview is being organized by Funglode, the former President’s think tank, and is sponsored by the Grupo Estrategico Empresarial made up of the Cibao International Airport, Sociedad Industrial Dominicana (SID), Coastal, ARS Humano, Grupo Estrella and Mercado Media Network.
Polls show that Fernandez is the strongest pre-candidate for the PLD ticket into the 2016 presidential election.
