The senior economist at the World Economic Forum, Irene Mia has said that recent improvements in the Dominican Republic's technological levels are encouraging. However, educational deficiencies are still a problem that must be addressed, according to the economist. In a report in Listin Diario, Mia says that the report looked at universities, the quality of business schools, research projects and higher education facilities. According to the economist, the Dominican Republic is doing very well in comparison with the rest of Latin America. She tempered her praise by saying that "one must take the weakness of Latin American education into consideration." Mia said that the 23-step improvement by the DR was indeed encouraging, since "it was the only country in the world to have made such a marked improvement."
