Santo Domingo.\u2013<\/em><\/strong> The citizen movement \u00a1Basta Ya RD!<\/em><\/strong> has called for a large caravan in Santo Domingo this Thursday, June 4, with the purpose of expressing its rejection of corruption, the high cost of living, public loans, insecurity, and mining projects in different areas of the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLet no one stay at home thinking that someone else is going to do the work for you. History is built with the citizens, among the citizens, and for the citizens,\u201d expressed Guzm\u00e1n when inviting the population to join the activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the main demands raised by the organizers are the resumption of investigations related to alleged irregularities in the National Health Insurance (Senasa<\/a>), reduction of fuel prices, freezing of basic food basket products, a halt to public debt, and an audit of state funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Likewise, they expressed their opposition to mining projects in San Juan and other provinces of the country, while demanding greater immigration controls, improvements in school infrastructure, and supplies for hospital centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guzm\u00e1n asserted that the activity does not respond to partisan interests and defined it as a citizen demonstration to express dissatisfaction with various government policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is not an activity of a political party or a political figure. It is an activity of the people,\u201d<\/em><\/strong> he maintained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The leader explained that the caravan will travel through sectors such as Cristo Rey, Villa Juana, Villa Agr\u00edcola, Ensanche La Fe, Naco, Piantini, Manganagua, Los Praditos, and M\u00e1ximo G\u00f3mez Avenue before concluding at the Malec\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The organizers urged participants to attend with Dominican flags, banners, and posters to express their demands and proposals to the authorities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
