The Ministry of Industry & Commerce has been gradually been reducing the price of fuel in the Dominican Republic. Nevertheless, the organizers of a national strike set for 27 November 2018 say the reductions are not enough to cancel the call to strike.
The so-called Coordinadora por la Rebaja de los Combustibles says that propane should cost no more than RD$65, and unleaded premium gasoline should top at RD$165 the gallon. Diesel should cost no more than RD$102.
The prices in effect for fuel in the Dominican Republic from 10-16 November 2018 are:
Propane RD$116.40;
Premium gasoline: RD$230.10
Regular gasoline: RD$221.40
Natural Gas RD$28.97 cubic meter,
Regular Diesel: RD$195.70,
