Kudos to Kudo

[NewsWhore]

Japanese volunteer Tadahisa Kudo is setting an example to Dominicans. Every day for the last year Kudo has spent an hour and half of his day going around the area by the Heroes Monument in Santiago and collecting the trash left behind, as reported in the Listin Diario. He uses a plastic bag to collect the trash and then takes it to be disposed of. Kudo, who is a volunteer with the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA) says that he doesn't get paid for his work and that it is not just the municipal authorities' duty but also up to the citizenry to keep their city clean. He added that Dominicans need more education and discipline in this regard. Kudo pointed to the beauty of the Monument and says that it is a tribute to the values of the Heroes who fought to restore the nation's independence.
