Bullying and intimidation

Last week there was a meeting at the school Gregorio Luperón to pay extra attention to raising awareness about preventing bullying and intimidation at school. The Counseling and Psychology department, headed by Bery L. Martínez, organized an important awareness event for the students, focusing on the prevention of bullying and harassment in schools.
The aim of this activity was:
- Promote a culture of respect, empathy and healthy coexistence inside and outside the classroom.
- Promote the identification and rejection of bullying behavior, recognizing its impact on students' emotional and academic lives.
- Motivate the education sector to actively act as prevention and reporting agents, thus creating a safe environment for everyone.

Water leak resolved, but…

After receiving a complaint, CORAAPPLATA (Corporación de Acueducto y Alcantarillado de Puerto Plata, Puerto Plata's water company) took immediate action to resolve an issue related to a damaged water pipe. There was quite a bit of flooding near the stairs leading to the beach of Sosúa. Particularly in the section between Los Charamicos and El Batey. The intervention required heavy equipment and trained technical personnel, who replaced the damaged pipeline. This situation raised concerns among residents and passers-by about water waste and deteriorated road surfaces in an area recently renovated by the city council.

It is noteworthy that CORAAPPLATA had already repaired this section several months earlier to fix a water leak. This raises concerns in the community about the quality of the solutions applied.
Do we have to prepare for the next leak?

Sosúa police station

Sosúa still has no police station, only a small temporary office on Pedro Clisante street.

And it doesn't get any better now that EDENORTE, the electricity company, has cut off the power supply to the office. The closure is causing surprise and outrage in the community, reported Ángel, a representative of the Dominican Committee for Human Rights in the municipality of Sosúa and the province of Puerto Plata. The facilities of the National Police Departmental Command and the DICRIM Unit, in the El Batey district, are now without power. The building houses not only the administrative offices, but also the dormitories for police officers from other provinces. The lack of electricity therefore constitutes a serious attack on the dignity and minimum working conditions of security personnel. Ángel described the situation as 'scandalous for Dominican society and for the municipality of Sosúa' and called on the competent authorities to investigate the matter and take measures to prevent a similar incident from happening again.
