Last update: 4 hours ago

Council of Ministers in Santiago: President Luis Abinader will lead a Council of Ministers this Sunday, June 14, at the Botanical Garden in Santiago, with follow-up on infrastructure and social projects plus inaugurations tied to water supply, health, education, sports, and roads. Social Spending Vetting: The Finance Ministry says it has started reviewing social protection beneficiaries to generate about RD$10 billion in savings by tightening who qualifies for subsidies. Fuel Prices Up: MICM announced weekly increases of RD$3 to RD$6 on gasoline and diesel (LPG and natural gas unchanged). Fiscal Reform Pushback: The Bar Association (CARD) backed the government’s fiscal measures but asked for incentives for independent lawyers; CODESSD also praised reform goals while warning informality remains a core structural problem. Business Worries: ASECENSA warned that “fiscal patches” could worsen the crisis by pressuring companies, raising unemployment, and urged cutting spending and tackling informality instead. Court Sentences in Murder Case: A Santo Domingo court sentenced two men to 20 and 7 years for the 2024 murder of Yobani Sánchez Mejía. Defamation Ruling: Communicator Claudia Pérez (“La Tora”) was sentenced to one year in prison and ordered to pay RD$5 million after an electronic defamation case. Weather Alert: COE expanded a green alert to 14 provinces plus the National District due to heavy rain, thunderstorms, strong gusts, and possible hail. Cyber Cluster Launch: The Dominican Republic unveiled a Cyber Cluster to boost cybersecurity talent, innovation, and digital resilience through a public-private board.
