00:00We will start with the news.
00:05During his participation in the monthly lunch of the American Chamber of Commerce,
00:10the Minister of the Presidency, José Ignacio Paliza, reiterated that Haiti is still the main challenge of the Dominican Republic.
00:19Together with Paliza, this time Peter Prasmoski of the National Council of Competitiveness was invited.
00:28The central issue was the Agenda 2036 and how to increase gross domestic product in the coming years.
00:38Paliza warned the business community that the Haitian crisis is still a pending issue for the country.
00:46Because we live in a small country, highly populated, with an average population density almost ten times higher than that of the region.
00:58With scarce resources, we populate an island shared with the poorest country in the hemisphere.
01:05Today, our greatest challenge of the future is undoubtedly Haiti.
01:11Other points addressed were to seek that the growth of the macroeconomy is as fair as possible.
01:18Growing by growing does not make any sense. An economic growth that is not inclusive is not proper.
01:26The Dominican Republic has advanced a lot.
01:31In 1990, our per capita income was only $1,200, which classified us as an economy or a poor country.
01:43The evaluation of civil servants is one of the variables that are being implemented to achieve the objectives of the Agenda 2036,
01:53among which are to reduce homicides, increase the lifetime of the population,
01:59and reduce the percentage of homes vulnerable to climate change, which is currently located at 30%.
02:09Guillermo García, Teleantillas News.
02:14And in another order, the Executive Director of the Dominican Institute for Prevention and Protection of Laboral Risks, Dr. Agustín Burgos,
02:22held a meeting this Monday with representatives of the National Council of the Private Company,
02:28where they talked in an effort to unify points of view favorable for the working class in the country.
02:35We have as a vision that what corresponds to us is to socialize the processes, the projects,
02:42but to guarantee the business community, the workers, in an integrated, educated, protected way,
02:50because that brings as a consequence that this worker is going to be more productive.
02:55But the worker also guarantees that in case, for one reason or another,
03:00that prevention program does not cover 100% and has a lesion, we can then cover what is the labor risk.
03:08And that is why we thank you very much for this first visit, and in fact for coming here,
03:14to understand a little the vision, for us to be able to support this management,
03:20and above all to make the changes and transformations that we know would improve and add value to what is being done.
03:27In this first meeting of the new Executive Director, Delido Pril, with Conect,
03:32the official announced his concern about the large number of motorcycle accidents in the country,
03:37he expressed his interest in addressing, together with the businessman,
03:40possible alternatives to reduce the risk of the collaborators who use this means of transport
03:46to move from and to their work centers.
03:51And the deputy of the People's Force, Félix Michel Rodríguez Morel, said this Tuesday
03:56not to have expectations around the meeting of delegates of the political parties to deal with the migratory issue,
04:04which he described as an artificial fire of the government that shows its inability to handle public issues.
04:24The deputy stated that this government and the previous ones have not been able to deal with the issue of Haitian migration,
04:30which in his opinion is a strictly economic issue as it happens across the border,
04:35where there is a rich country and another not.
04:39The Haitian authorities decided to install last night the border gate over the bridge
04:45that connects Dajabón with Juana Méndez, which according to the authorities of Haiti will be to maintain control.
05:00The Dominican government is doing its job.
05:03They want retaliation and that's where they start.
05:07They already have their door, now comes the closing and the thing.
05:12And let's hope they don't take any action on closing that door for any inconvenience.
05:20Let's hope not. They have said no, that it is only to place the door that was previously there.
05:29As a free country, they have the right to put their door to have some control,
05:35but I don't think that influences what is the dynamism of the binational trade.
05:41It is remembered that in December 2023, Haitian truck drivers and civilians decided to destroy
05:47and launch the Haitian side gate to the Rio Massacre,
05:51after Haitian authorities decided to keep the door closed due to the restrictions of the Dominican government
05:58after the reopening of the border for commercial traffickers.
06:07Thank you for keeping up with us.
06:10Interior and Police Minister Farideh Rafoul sworn this Tuesday to 82 citizens of 30 nationalities
06:17such as Dominicans from countries such as Bulgaria, South Africa, Russia, Spain, Holland, France
06:24and others from South and North America, resulting as the most nationalized Cuba, Peru, Colombia and Venezuela.
06:32The act was carried out in the auditorium of the Catholic University, Mother and Teacher,
06:37and during the activity, the official asked to raise the country, as well as respect for the Constitution,
06:44its democratic principles and exhorted to contribute to the maintenance of order and justice.
06:52This Tuesday, a commission of the Dominican Medical School met with authorities of the Ministry of Public Health
06:59with a view to finding solutions to the cancellations of doctors.
07:04There are 14 doctors canceled according to statements of the Secretary General of the Dominican Medical School
07:11and for which the board requires the Ministry of Public Health its reposition
07:15because the arguments for the suspension of its services have an explanation.
07:22There are some inconveniences that are presented by a distortion that exists in the Ministry of Finance,
07:29specifically in the Contraloría General de la República,
07:32because then we are solving that impasse, which is what has not been able to advance so much today.
07:38The other cases are already well reviewed and advanced.
07:41One of the arguments is for absence.
07:44In that sense, the board's commission stated that they have presented the necessary endorsement
07:49to justify and sustain the situation of those Galenos, some military.
07:55But we have been demonstrating that things are not like that.
07:58The other thing is due to a nominal shock, a supposed nominal shock, which is an incongruity.
08:04The commission will meet again next week.
08:07We were waiting for the meeting with the Minister, the Director of Budget and Pensions
08:14to discuss the issue of the salary increase of retired doctors.
08:18That's what we were waiting for.
08:20It should be noted that in parallel, the ministry, together with that union,
08:25has formed three commissions to address different situations,
08:29in addition to the aforementioned cancellations.
08:32On the one hand, there is the commission with the National Health Service on the safety of hospitals.
08:38And a third in which issues are addressed regarding the salary increase of retired Galenos.
08:45Paola Mateo, Teleantillas News.
08:48And the Vice President of the Dominican Liberation Party, Zoraima Coelho,
08:53showed her concern about the lack of transparency in the data that the government exposes in different sectors.
09:00Coelho, who was a candidate for the Vice President of the Republic for the PLD,
09:05is concerned about the inconsistencies in the data that the government exposes
09:11in sectors such as health, education, and the 911 emergency care system.
09:17And when they say that the coverage rate has improved, that you go to the data,
09:22today we still don't have the coverage rate that we had in 2019, not even the assistance rate.
09:29The political leader described it as painful that President Abinader announced an improvement
09:35in the coverage of education when there has actually been a setback.
09:40The government must also be taken care of.
09:42That is, they are informing us and we believe that we are in an improvement situation.
09:49A call was made to the Ministry of Public Health to review the data and explain
09:54why the 2024 closing bulletin was presented with five months of delay and some errors.
10:01Because an incorrect date is a real danger to Dominican society.
10:08We can be giving information and we ourselves are trusting that everything is fine.
10:15In that same order, he warned about an increase of 5% in neonatal deaths.
10:22Because it is in this moment in a bulletin where they put the general summary,
10:28but you do not have access to where there are more deaths.
10:33Soraya Macuello criticized that the percentage of health investment has decreased
10:38from 1.92% in 2020 to 1.7% of GDP.
10:44Eliana Cuevas, Teleantillas News.
10:49And Claudia Perez in La Torre apologizes to Farideh Raful for rumors issued by her daughter.
10:55Farideh responds firmly and denounces discredit campaigns and announces legal actions.
11:01José Daniel Antigua tells us more.
11:03The recent media controversy between Interior and Police Minister Farideh Raful
11:08and communicator Claudia Perez, known as La Torre,
11:12has escalated to a new level after a public apology issued by the latter
11:17as a result of the statements that emerged from the digital space of her daughter Ingrid Jorge.
11:23Claudia Perez disassociated herself from the rumors spread by her daughter
11:28and recognized that Ingrid lacked ethics and has no right to injure third parties.
11:34What else can I do?
11:38And I apologize to Farideh Raful for all this in our name.
11:44To that same judge, for all these things I invent you.
11:50Because this is an invention.
11:52That this damn crazy Joana Madera, who already has a history
11:58and has already wanted to put this girl in a situation without reversal, my daughter.
12:05You can say anything you want about me and you think you can fool me, anything you want.
12:12The only thing I want to tell you is that whatever it is, I am your mother.
12:18Farideh's reaction was not to be expected.
12:21In a forceful video, the official condemned the discredit campaign
12:26that, according to her, she has been facing for months.
12:30For months I have been the target of a systematic discredit campaign.
12:35Now that campaign has escalated to unacceptable levels.
12:39They are resorting to the lowest lie and the most perverse technology
12:44to fabricate rumors about my personal life.
12:47As a public servant, I have acted with transparency, integrity and coherence,
12:52both in public and in private.
12:55Raful stressed that this type of attack not only seeks to damage her personal reputation,
13:00but also to weaken her management in front of the Ministry of the Interior and Police.
13:05In the same way, she announced that she has instructed her lawyers to initiate legal actions
13:11against those who participated in the dissemination of these falsehoods.
13:16Defending my name is not only an act of personal dignity,
13:19it is also a public duty so that no one else has to shut up for fear of a lie.
13:25Today more than ever, let's all take care.
13:28Because this type of attack does not distinguish age, gender or profession.
13:34We can all be victims.
13:37And we must all take care of the most valuable thing we have.
13:41Our reputation, our truth and our peace.
13:45The cross between the Tora and Farideh Raful has once again put on the table
13:50the urgency to regulate digital content and the responsible use of communication platforms,
13:58as well as the need to preserve the dignity and reputation of people
14:04in an increasingly vulnerable environment due to misinformation.
14:09José Daniel Antigua, Informativos Teleantillas.
14:14And in this same order, this Tuesday, senators from different benches
14:18defended the integrity of the Minister of the Interior and Police, Farideh Raful,
14:23who through a video denounced that he is being the victim of a campaign of defamation and discredit.
14:29Paola Mateo explained.
14:31I think that here social networks are passed,
14:34they do things that they should not do and they end up with a person.
14:38In that sense, the party's senator, first agent Antonio Marte,
14:42when addressed about the complaint of discredit campaign carried out by Minister Farideh Raful,
14:48recalled that a project was submitted with which it is sought to somehow regulate these platforms
14:53within the framework of the project of the Law on Freedom of Expression.
14:57That is why we are submitting the project of the LAV if we end this misinformation that exists.
15:04On her side, the also senator for the PRM, María Mercedes Ortiz,
15:08refuted the attributions that were made to the official through social networks,
15:13where they even referred to her private life.
15:17We repudiate in an energetic way, as a woman, as a legislator, as a public servant,
15:22this type of actions.
15:24Well, it has already been repetitive and this is the drop that the glass has spilled.
15:29We have seen how they frequently use social networks
15:34and even artificial intelligence to discredit, to defame.
15:39The official legislator advocated for measures and a regime of consequences in these cases.
15:46There must be measures that can have consequences,
15:51because finally many of us have been and will be victims of this type of scourge if we do not paralyze.
15:59The reaction of Minister Farideh Raful is given after a communicator referred to her private life on social networks.
16:06It is about the communicator Ingrid Gómez, daughter of the also communicator known as the Torah,
16:12who later went out to deny the accusations of her daughter.
16:16And I apologize, brother, to Farideh Raful for all this in our name,
16:22to that same judge, for all these things, this invention, because this is an invention,
16:29that this damn crazy Johanna Madera, who already has a history
16:37and has wanted to put this girl in an irreversible situation.
16:42Meanwhile, in an official statement, the executive board of the modern revolutionary party
16:47vigorously condemned the personal discredit campaign that has been launched
16:52against the also member of the executive board of that political organization.
16:57The party described the campaigns as disproportionate and atrocious,
17:02aimed at threatening and tarnishing the reputation of the minister.
17:06It also solidarized with the prominent communicator and former Minister of Culture Milagros Germán,
17:12who is also mentioned in relation to Raful.
17:15The PRM called for reflection on citizenship in general,
17:19to condemn these actions that erode the deepest of society
17:23and that threaten freedom of expression as a claim to democracy
17:28within the framework of respect for honor and individual freedom,
17:33prays the document.
17:35Paola Mateo Informativos, Teleantillas.
17:38And with this last piece of information, we make our second commercial break.
17:43Don't change it, because we'll be back with more news.
17:45And don't forget to follow us through our social networks, as arrobainformativos.te
17:51And two of those involved voluntarily surrendered
17:57who broke into the drug sales place with the intention of robbing it
18:02yesterday in the rural area near the Massacre River in Dagobón,
18:06where five people died, three Dominicans and two Haitians,
18:10during a confrontation linked to drug trafficking.
18:13The detainees were identified as Hector Alejandro Acevedo Estevez,
18:18a.k.a. Chico, and Jose Miguel de la Rosa, 23 years old,
18:22who are being interrogated by a commission of prosecutors
18:27of the Homicide Investigation Department of the District of Dagobón.
18:34Four days after the death of the two-year-old in Los Alcarrizos
18:38for alleged child abuse at the hands of his stepmother,
18:41relatives have not been able to intervene.
18:45Despite having the death certificate in their hands,
18:49which confirms that the cause of death was homicide.
18:53According to the death certificate, the two-year-old Carlos David
18:57would have suffered child abuse at the hands of his stepmother,
19:02Elisabeth Valdez.
19:04The document qualifies death as homicide and details
19:08that the minor died of cerebral anoxia, concussion and cerebral hemorrhage,
19:13severe brain trauma and concussion.
19:17This Tuesday, the child's maternal grandmother,
19:20who raised him from birth because his mother is out of the country,
19:24expressed her impotence and pain when she went to the police station
19:28located in Las Caobas in Santo Domingo Oeste.
19:31With this document in hand and due to bureaucracy,
19:35they did not take the case,
19:37so the woman has not yet been arrested by the Public Prosecutor's Office.
19:41The doctors said it was abuse, the paper is there.
19:44What did the child have?
19:46The child was totally beaten, he had a burned hand,
19:50he had a bruise on his head, he had a purple body
19:56and he was hanged.
19:59The child was hanged.
20:01Child Carlos David Diaz was in the care of the current couple of his father,
20:06who for two months had custody of the minor and his seven-year-old sister.
20:11No, he was going to look for the child, as usual,
20:15on Saturday afternoons and returned on Sunday afternoons.
20:19In the end he told me, I'm going to spend one more week with the child.
20:24Okay, because he's his father, I couldn't deny it.
20:27I never expected that from him.
20:29Then he came back and told me, I'm going to spend another week with the child.
20:34In the end he told me that he was going to stay with the child.
20:37The child didn't come back, I didn't see him again.
20:40Are you trying to visit him?
20:42No, because I didn't know where he lived.
20:44He moved to La Cuava.
20:46I didn't know where he lived.
20:49I called him, my children called him, my husband called him
20:53to show him the child, but he never showed him.
20:56His grandmother, Yaneri Cervantes,
20:58stated that she went to Vinicio Calventi Hospital,
21:02the place where the child was taken on May 13 in an agonizing state,
21:06and the doctor who treated him informed her
21:10of the multiple blows to his body,
21:13which indicated signs of child abuse.
21:17The grandmother has gone on several occasions to the Las Caobas
21:21and has not been able to formalize the appeal
21:24and fears that the case will remain unpunished.
21:27She also asks that the child's father be investigated.
21:31The two-year-old Carlos David Diaz
21:34remained in the Vinicio Calventi Hospital for several days
21:38and died on May 16.
21:41His body was buried on Sunday.
21:44Ana Mañón, Teleantillas News.
21:48The Dominican population is concerned
21:51about a series of violent events
21:54that have directly affected minors
21:57in different provinces of the country.
21:59Cesar Machena tells us.
22:01After the arrival of the month of May,
22:04multiple tragedies have been recorded
22:07that approach a problem in terms of child protection.
22:10The most recent cases highlight the death of a three-month-old baby
22:14who lost his life in the San Francisco de Macorís nursery
22:17on May 1 of this year.
22:20In other words, the infant identified as Iris Arlet Bonifacio Ganario
22:24died when arriving at the emergency room of a health center
22:27after being taken from a nursery where she was cared for.
22:31This unfortunate event is added to the brutal murder of a two-year-old boy
22:36identified as Carlos Daniel Diaz Peña,
22:39who died on Saturday while he was under the care of his stepmother
22:43in the municipality of Los Alcarrillos, Santo Domingo Province.
22:47Carlos Daniel was under the care of his father's current partner, David Diaz,
22:52who had custody of the minor and his seven-year-old sister for two months,
22:56after his mother, Carla Peña, emigrated to the United States two years ago
23:01in search of a better life.
23:03Until this moment, the children lived with their maternal grandmother, Yaneri Cervantes,
23:08in another equally worrying fact, the death of their two-year-old son,
23:13in a case that has shocked the Villaverde sector in La Romana.
23:17Authorities have not yet clarified the circumstances of the event,
23:21but the father of the minor offered a version that draws a disturbing outlook.
23:26Carlos Manuel Félix, the child's father,
23:29reported that he left the house the night before to go to work
23:33and that, returning in the morning, he found the minor without vital signs.
23:38Another disturbing fact, on the morning of this Tuesday,
23:41he found the lifeless body of a minor, approximately five years old,
23:45in a state of decomposition,
23:47in the vicinity of the intersection of George Washington Avenue with Máximo Gómez.
23:52According to information provided by the firefighters and divers who gave the alert,
23:56the child had remained for several days in the waters of the Caribbean Sea,
24:00before being found.
24:03César Marchena, Teleantillas News.
24:08A five-year-old boy was found dead this Tuesday
24:11in the waters of the Caribbean Sea, near the beach of Huibia,
24:14which is presumed to have been missing for several days
24:17due to the state of decomposition it presented.
24:21At 6.44 p.m., we were informed that there was a floating body
24:28in the waters of the Caribbean Sea, near Huibia, here on George Washington Avenue.
24:35We immediately sent two rescue units,
24:38about eight buses in total,
24:41to rescue the body,
24:43seeing that it was a boy,
24:46but we could not identify him because there were no relatives
24:49and we did not have any information.
24:52The only information we had was that there was a floating body.
24:58We did the recovery of the body and handed it over to the emergency personnel.
25:06The body, which has not yet been identified,
25:09is at the National Institute of Forensic Sciences
25:12for corresponding investigations,
25:15according to the chief of the firefighters of the National District.
25:20And the five people who lost their lives during a shooting
25:23at a drug point in the municipality of Loma de Cabrera
25:26were buried, three.
25:28This Tuesday and Monday, a source reported to Teleantillas
25:33that those buried today were Franklin Alexander González,
25:3752 years old,
25:39who was buried in the municipal cemetery of Loma de Cabrera
25:42by relatives and friends,
25:44while in the cemetery of La Ceiba
25:47Israel Franco and Joni Patafina were buried.
25:51At the moment, the identities of the deceased
25:54who were buried this Monday are unknown.
25:58And almost two months after the disappearance of the boy,
26:01Roldan Iscalderon, three years old,
26:04the lawyer of the Ramón Cabral family
26:06assured that they may have positive results
26:09of the search in the next few days.
26:12Interviewed on a television program,
26:14the priest maintains a hypothesis
26:16that the minor missing since March 30 could be alive
26:21and in the hands of third parties.
26:23He said that the authorities continue with the investigations
26:26until they find the whereabouts of the minor.
26:28Last week, the Public Prosecutor's Office and the National Police
26:31carried out several searches in the province of Hermanas Mirabal
26:35related to the search for the infant.
26:47And the Dominican Republic will have a cyclonic season
26:51above normal with at least 17 named storms,
26:56of which 9 can become hurricanes
26:59and 4 of them could be of high intensity.
27:03The hurricane season is the Atlantic
27:06that begins this June 1
27:08and concludes on November 30,
27:10will be more active than usual.
27:12This is what the engineer Gloria Ceballos,
27:15director of the Dominican Institute of Meteorology, said.
27:18A cyclonic season in which we will have
27:22around 16 or 17 named storms,
27:26of which 9 can become hurricanes
27:30and 4 could be of high intensity.
27:33So, as we see,
27:35this is above what normally happens.
27:39Normally, 14 named storms are formed
27:43and only 7 or 8 hurricanes are formed
27:48and of those, 3 are intense.
27:50Ceballos said that due to the complex season
27:52that is approaching, society must be prepared
27:55and from there, start with its contingency plans.
27:58Families must have their own contingency plan,
28:03see what is the vulnerability they have in the home.
28:07The employee valued the installation
28:10of a Doppler radar in Puerto Plata as positive.
28:32In addition, she predicted a stronger heat season
28:36than in previous years.
28:59Currently, INDOMED monitors the first tropical wave
29:02formed during this season
29:04and that so far does not represent a danger to the country.
29:08Fabiola Núñez, Teleantillas News.
29:12And the National Federation of Workers of Christian Social Transport
29:16made an urgent call this Tuesday
29:19to the Ministry of Public Works
29:21to carry out a structural assessment
29:24of all the works of infrastructure built
29:27during the government of the Dominican Liberation Party.
29:30While the Secretary General of the Union, Mario Díaz,
29:33denounced a significant amount of bridges and elevators
29:36in visible deterioration
29:38and said that they have also reported cracks,
29:41leaks, among other malformations,
29:43in different road sections
29:45and requires the corresponding authorities
29:47to carry out a perimeter
29:49in order to take immediate measures.
29:53And in the community of Amima Gómez de Azo,
29:56parents of students decided to close the high school
30:00in the face of the danger that its deteriorated infrastructure represents,
30:03especially in the detachment of pieces of concrete from the roof.
30:09The roof of the school's educational facility,
30:12Soylo Contreras, presents visible cracks
30:14and concrete detachment in several classrooms.
30:17A situation that has generated great concern among parents
30:20who decided not to send their children to school
30:23until their safety is guaranteed.
30:26This high school began to present many cracks.
30:29First in the classrooms, then in the teachers' classrooms.
30:32Practically everything that is deteriorating
30:35is going to collapse, as we have seen.
30:38We, as parents, are afraid that there will be human loss
30:40because not only the students, but also the teachers.
30:43There are six classrooms that are collapsing.
30:47You can verify that on the table
30:50there are pieces of debris.
30:53They assured that they would not expect a tragedy
30:56for the authorities to take action on the matter,
30:59so they closed the center in a preventive manner.
31:02The situation of this school is that the classrooms are collapsing.
31:06This collapse can cause a failure
31:09among the students and a teacher.
31:12Soylo Contreras is in an emergency.
31:15Before the complaint, the director of the educational district
31:18visited the high school to evaluate the situation
31:21and look for an urgent solution to this problem
31:25Tell the community that we are going to manage
31:28immediately that the engineer
31:31takes the information
31:34of what is there,
31:37if it has to be ground, if it has to be repaired.
31:40They are the ones who have to tell you
31:43so that we can solve that part.
31:46And we are telling the community
31:49that we are going to do this as soon as possible
31:52so that a school year begins with motivation,
31:55a school year that the students are safe.
