El Caribe newspaper asks Dominican politicians to give Dominicans the ultimate Christmas gift: a 10-day political hiatus so the holidays can be celebrated in peace. The editorial writer says the truce would also enable the politicians to take a vacation, thus giving the people and the media a chance to dedicate more time and space to the really important matters of daily living. “The gift of a break for 10 days a year is not too much to ask,” concludes the writer.
