The executive editor of Diario Libre urges good Dominicans to come forward and take a more active role in Dominican public affairs. He said there is a general wave of apathy that has penetrated the collective Dominican psyche and is making us believe that nothing can be done here, that nothing works and that Dominicans are just despicable and shameless. He comments this can be perceived even in the questions journalists ask at press conferences. There is not even a hint of trying to find the good side of things.
And it's not as if we shouldn't denounce what is bad, but there should be an intention of correcting, not throwing mud on the country with claims that are leading nowhere, like some kind of joyless masturbation.
He writes: There is no doubt that our leaders have done very little to change this situation with their lies, their intent on spoiling things and impeding strengthening of institutions in the country. But then he makes his point: But there are too many good people in this nation for something like that to be happening. What's going on with the good people?
Adriano Miguel Tejada says that if those who truly love the country continue to stay in their comfortable chairs watching everything that is happening with disdain, the bad guys will continue sending legislators to Congress and bad politicians to lead government. It is time to wake up, he concludes. |
