Alburquerque served as Minister of Economy, Planning and Development, President of the Dominican Petroleum Refinery, President of the National Energy Commission, and President of the National Forestry Technical Commission (CONATEF), from where he promoted policies aimed at strengthening institutions and the responsible use of the country&#8217;s strategic resources.\n\nLikewise, his mark was decisive in the legislative field, serving as a senator of the Republic for the province of Monte Plata and president of the Senate in three periods, a stage in which he contributed significantly to the democratic debate, the modernization of parliamentary work and the defense of the national interest.\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We recommend reading: <a href=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/entren-to-cono-asi-recuerdan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cEntren to\u2019 co\u00f1o&#8221;: this is how Dominicans remember Ram\u00f3n Alburquerque for his frankness and honesty<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\nIn this way, the dean emphasized that the figure of Ram\u00f3n Alburquerque transcends the sum of positions held, as it embodies a vocation for public service based on critical thinking, plural dialogue and historical responsibility.
