President Luis Abinader was busy in the northeast and eastern coast of the country last weekend. On Saturday, 22 February 2025, he re-opened the Villa Suiza vocational hotel school in Sabana de la Mar in the province of Hato Mayor, along with a couple of other projects. The town rests on the southern coast of the Samana Bay, and has, until fairly recently, been out of the path of any sort of governmental attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, the National Institute of Professional Technical Training (Infotep) has taken over the hotel-school and will be preparing personnel for the burgeoning tourist center at Miches, just down the coast in El Seibo province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Miches was once described by a former US Ambassador, John Bartlow Martin as \u201c25 kilometers of empty beaches.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As explained by President Abinader on Saturday, the effort is part of actions to help areas in the country break out of the \u201cvicious circle\u201d of underdevelopment and enter a \u201cvirtuous circle\u201d of development. He pointed out that the graduates of the vocational school would most probably find jobs at the hotels that already existed in Miches and the surrounding areas, or the hotels that are open or will soon open in the new Miches beach destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The President also inaugurated a new aqueduct for the town of Miches, a new primary school, and dikes and other flood control measures on the Duey River in Hig\u00fcey, in La Altagracia province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
