The Association of Hotels & Restaurants (Asonahores) protested that transporters in La Romana are trying to impose a monopoly on employee transportation. Asonahores said it backs its affiliate, the Association of Hotels & Restaurants of Bayahibe (AHRB) in its efforts to support its member Viva Resorts that wants to use its own transport for its employees. Asonahores urged that the authorities of the Ministry of Tourism and the Police protect the rights of the hoteliers to organize the tranport of their employees.
