According to a press release from the Ministry of Foreign Relations, the Dominican Ambassador to India Hans Dannenberg went to Jordan to mediate in the labor dispute between a transportation company and a group of Dominicans who had been working in the Middle-Eastern country. Diario Libre reports that the conflict arose when the Dominican truck drivers refused to sign documents freeing the company from their salary responsibilities. Dannenberg reported that they finally accepted payment of their last salary plus 16 days in August. Of the group, Humberto Vasquez and Odalis Dilone were expected to arrive yesterday, whereas Jose Ramon Geraldino, Rafael Jimenez, Pedro Rosario, Teodoro Dipet, Rafael Faustino and Jose Tavares are to leave Jordan today, and Jose Zorrilla, Jose Figuereo, Robi Ponciano and Alfredo Vidal are leaving on Wednesday. Jose Jimenez decided to stay working in Jordan and Wilson Campana is imprisoned for his involvement in a fight.
