Santo Domingo.- Presidency Administrative Minister, José Ramón Peralta, met Wednesday with leaders of the country’s business sector to discuss the opening of post-coronavirus economic activities.

“The resilience of the Dominican economy will resist the strong attacks created by the coronavirus,” the Presidency said in a statement that didn’t provide details regarding the resumption of economic activities.

“The meeting between government authorities and business leaders responds to the interest of President Danilo Medina in a program of monetary and fiscal policies to revive economic growth in recent years.”
