Former president of the National Council for Private Business (Conep) Celso Marranzini has criticized the governmental proposal to tax diesel fuel by an extra RD$5. He said that this would affect business competitiveness because of the widespread use of diesel to fuel power generators that compensate for deficiencies in the governmental electricity service. He spoke out against the new insurance tax, which he described as another additional cost to doing business created by the government. As reported in El Caribe, he criticized the fact that tax increases are imposed for political convenience. He also called on the government to install "smart" power meters.
