00:00And one would ask, how can it be possible to comply with what the constitution is established

00:06if there is no even a cup for the Dominican children, which is the first thing we have to think about.

00:11In 2022, we were in a situation where we had to apply a public policy of 500 dollars

00:18as a bonus to be able to deal with the absence of cupos for the students.

00:23Of course, three years, and three years, and more than 900.000 millions of pesos

00:29after, which is what represents the 4% if we go to three years, for each year,

00:33we are talking about that today we have not been able to put in action

00:38policies adequate to mitigate this situation.

00:41It is highly possible that the economic crisis has led to that parents and mothers

00:48have to bring their children to private education, public education,

00:52this because perhaps they lost their jobs

00:55or because it is expensive to live in the Dominican Republic.

00:58And you can see, they don't even have where to inscribe their children

01:02because the cupos today are quite limited.

01:05And in some cases, as it says, in the list of diaries,

01:07in some recintos escolares,

01:09more than the half are occupied by foreigners,

01:12evidentemente haitianos,

01:14and I assure you that many of them are in condition irregular in the Dominican Republic.

01:18So I think it is something that we have to call a deep reflection

01:21in my case personal anuncio,

01:23that I am going to visit this week

01:25the recintos escolares

01:26to talk to the directors and directors

01:29as well as with the Ministry of Education

01:31for that in every recinto school

01:33that I find a anomaly,

01:35parents and mothers agobiados

01:36that can't inscribe their children

01:38will be a communication

01:39to the Ministry of Education

01:40for that as a competent authority

01:41to put material on the issue.

01:43Because how can it be

01:44that in such situations

01:46and we talked about the other day

01:48that they could be converted

01:50in public control

01:52the hospitals,

01:53well,

01:54it is not only about

01:55that about the 40% of the maternities

01:58are occupied by national nationalities

02:00and foreign women,

02:01but also the schools.

02:03And I think

02:04that an example

02:05has been the Dominican Republic

02:06of respect to human rights,

02:08respect to human rights,

02:10respect to human rights

02:11and solidarity.

02:12But when one sees all those things

02:14as well as the future

02:16of the Dominican Republic

02:17we have to question

02:18if we are doing the thing

02:19well or not,

02:20gentlemen.

02:21So,

02:22I will tell you

02:23that I will present myself

02:24this same week

02:25as representative

02:27as representative

02:28of the national district

02:29because all the schools

02:30in the country

02:31are important,

02:33but the of my demarcation

02:34are my responsibility.

02:35The reason

02:36that I will go there

02:37is to ensure

02:38that the parents

02:39and mothers

02:40with children

02:42dominican

02:43have their

02:44safe

02:46to ensure

02:47public education

02:48guaranteed

02:49the rest of the year.

02:50I will conclude

02:51with a final reflection

02:52that

02:53is that

02:54planting education

02:55is a future

02:56reason

02:57for which I am more convinced

02:58than ever

02:59that education

03:00is synonymous

03:01of freedom

03:02and prosperity.

03:03Thank you, President.
