Pérez Núñez said that they are thinking leaving the province and everything behind due to the high contamination int the area
Pérez Núñez, mention in the letter, addressed to the president Danilo Medina, they suggest to give Cotui a 5% of the resources for an institution that would be concern with the problems of the province of Sanchez Ramirez
We have mention this before, over and over.. And people haven't pay attention of some of the inner problems of the community: health, contamination, employment ,water, clean environment,etc.
These affected communities is going to be a reflection of what is going to happens to the rest of the Dominicans.
We can keep talking , and Barrick gold keep taking gold out of DR,we keep their cyanide and mercury and we haven't seen a penny yet of BG.
Somehow, this drama remind me the biggest claim of Jerry Maguire: Show me the money
it's like a never ending situation with BG, when some people come from over seas assuming how naive are Dominicans, while they keep taking the gold away, over and over and over again.
