AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Urban Safety: A crowd-sourced 2026 crime index places Santo Domingo among the world’s 50 most dangerous cities; Lagos ranks 28th, ahead of the capital. Healthcare Costs: Officials say they want to curb high insurance co-payments, estimated to cost patients more than RD$24 billion this year; DIDA’s director called for consequences over unfair charges. Cost of Living: Residents say food prices keep rising, while premium gasoline and diesel are set to increase RD$4 per gallon. The government says fuel subsidies will shield transport fares and basic food costs. Digital Rights: A new AI ethics code bars public agencies from using mass biometric identification in public spaces without a court order and independent oversight. Voter Registration: The JCE warned of consequences for failing to renew national ID cards before the March 2027 deadline.
