It's been a year since the implementation of DR-CAFTA and public and private citizens are still trying to understand the complexities of the agreement and how it is affecting the nation's competitiveness. With this goal in mind, this month Medios Especializados S.A launched a new magazine called "Gestion & Competitividad". The first issue of the monthly magazine focuses on DR-CAFTA. According to G&C it is still too early to gauge DR-CAFTA's influence on the Dominican economy, beyond the fact that it opens a new door for trade with the US. The magazine also features an interview with Rene Villareal, a Mexican expert on competitiveness, who comments that the DR could become the Caribbean version of Ireland in ten years, if it develops properly. Other features include interviews with economist David Diaz Benavides, Andres van der Horst Alvarez, Juan Garrigo, Maria Victoria Abreu, Guillermina Ramirez and Alvin Martinez Llibre.
