IMO, the Ministry of Tourism has not done enough to promote the Southwest, due to it's "amornoracion" with Punta Cana and Cap Cana and now Juan Dolio. There is no other region as attractive as the Southwest and the resistance to it's development will give way sooner than later.

I think it all has to do with a conflict of interest with the bigwigs who have huge investmentes in the southeast, they don't want the southwest developed because it will take business away from them; all the southwest gets is promises which never become a reality, Felucho is a man of big promises and small accomplishments when it comes to Barahona and Pedernales. For example, whatever happened to the thermal waters project in Canoa?
