President Leonel Fernandez is committed to bringing economic, social, cultural, political, scientific and technological changes to the Dominican Republic. During the inauguration of the new state university (UASD) regional campus in Puerto Plata, President Fernandez said that the country needs people with the right skills and said that his government would work tirelessly to make this utopia possible, and to fulfill the dream of a true transformation that eliminates poverty once and for all. President Fernandez encouraged the university community to become a center for scientific research and development.
He encouraged the university to serve Puerto Plata's human resource needs, particularly in areas of the tourism industry. "Universities cannot be places where only knowledge is served," he said, encouraging the university community to take a more proactive role.
The extension of the UASD, which has been under construction for many years, was inaugurated at a cost of over RD$500 million. The Fernandez government also announced the repaving of the Puerto Plata-Cabarete highway, the completion of public schools at the Amistad sugar cane community, the reconstruction of the Antera Mota public school and the Palma Sola aqueduct.
