He says salary increase should have been 25%, and the PRM will review the Central Bank numbers
SANTO DOMINGO. The alliance between the opposition parties will take place "at the bottom, in the middle and on top," as they go into the 2016 elections.
The statement is by the presidential candidate of the Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM), Luis Abinader.
"The unity of the opposition is going to occur at the bottom, in the middle and on top, so that many times it will happen on the bottom, other times it will happen in the middle and others on top, what is going to happen is that there is going to be a great unity of the opposition," he stressed.
Recently, the presidential candidate of the Dominican Revolutionary Party (PRD), Miguel Vargas, suggested that a possible agreement should start from the bottom, with the Congressional and municipal candidates.
Salary and growth
Regarding the 14% increase in the minimum wage, Abinader said that he supports the suggestion by the leadership of the PRM, in the sense that the increase should be for 25%.
Referring to the information from the Central Bank, that the economy grew by 6.5% in the first quarter of this year, the opposition economist said that independently of whether this is true or not, the most important thing is not how much the economic growth has been, but rather how this has improved the quality of life of the Dominicans.
The Central Bank itself has issued on many other occasions some data of economic growth that they themselves have had to revise some months later," he pointed out.
He assured the reporters that behind the data and numbers that the governments of the Dominican Liberation Party (PLD) offer, what is hidden is more poverty and regression.
"What we see is a profoundly inefficient government, a model that does not work, because they are reproducing poverty," he underlined.
Abinader spoke at the swearing in ceremony at the PRM of former PRD leaders Kimberly Taveras, a director of the district board of La Guayiga, and Alberto Marte, the mayor of Bonao.
Present at the ceremony were the executive director of the campaign, Eligio Jaquez, and the political director, Wellington Arnaud, who served as the liaison.
