This country or we are going to fly in terms of jobs,” said the president of the Dominican Republic, Luis Abinader.

Luis Abinader has recently expressed that tourism recovery is one of his chief priorities because this is one of the key sectors that generate maximum jobs in the country.

“If we normalize the tourism sector, we will be at the pre-COVID level of jobs,” said Abinader in his fifth address to the country since his inauguration on August 16.

As per the projections made by the end of 2020, the President of DR has emphasized the fact that unemployed number will get reduced to about 200,000. This will be due to hotel reopening.

“This country or we are going to fly in terms of jobs,” said the president in a peculiar speech in which he did not read a speech but consisted of answers to questions from the participating public.
