President Leonel Fernandez last night asked Dominicans to have confidence in his government, which he said is committed to seek solutions the problems that may affect them in 2009, such as the energy crisis, crime and food production.
He said the elections, the energy crisis, food and the global economic problems made 2008 a challenging and difficult year for the nation.
Fernandez spoke last night, together with his family after the year end concert for government employees and the lighting of the National Palace’s Christmas tree and exterior lights. “I’m hopeful that the new year will be better and we commit ourselves to work, even in adverse conditions, to maintain economic growth and social peace, create more jobs, attract new investments and continue the progress.”
He said he’ll deliver a brief speech to the country next week on measures to control crime and new economic actions to guarantee the country’s stability.
