Former Minister of Youth Manuel Crespo says that when he left the post in 2008, the Ministry WiFi network was working, but it was up to his successor, Franklin Rodriguez to continue the project. Diario Libre has reported that the WiFi system is not functioning, despite the Ministry announcing it was a RD$70 million project. Crespo said that the RD$70 million announced for the project in 2006 only RD$2 million was spent on the public Internet network. He said the money was used to purchase 3,000 computers, and to fund scholarships. He said the plan was for the City Government and the Dominican Telecommunications Institute to take over the project, which never happened.
