Although only in Spanish, the National Competitiveness Council's Competitiveness watchdog website is one of the best sources for keeping a grasp on how the Dominican Republic is faring compared to the rest of the world. The website is constantly updated with new national and international reports on economic and business indicators, and local initiatives. The site has sections on clusters activities, the business climate, new legislation affecting business, the local business agenda and the international financial crisis.
For instance, by accessing the website you find that the World Economic Forum has just released its "Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Report 2009" with an overview on how the industry has fared through years of terrorism, high fuel prices and the current recession.
Deputy director of the National Competitiveness Council Maria Victoria Abreu says that the site design was recently enhanced and that it is constantly updated to share information on achievements in the area of competitiveness and the challenges ahead.
