Diandino not talking

[NewsWhore]

Hoy newspaper reporters have been trying to contact engineer Diandino Pena, who is in charge of the construction of Santo Domingo's first metro line. However, he has not been available for comment to the press. The reporters also tried to get a comment from a spokesman for the Banco de Reservas, about a news story that the metro builders are seeking a RD$3 billion loan from the Banco de Reservas to continue construction. Recent press reports indicate that the metro builders have already used up most of the RD$1.7 billion allocation from this year's national budget. Congress recently approved a EUR106 million loan for purchasing metro equipment. Critics have pointed out that the metro is consuming half of the funds available for public works construction nationwide.
