No litter anywhere. The Trujillo government must have made that a priority.

As it relates to dictators many were much worse than Trujillo. He invested heavily in infrastructure and modernized the DR. He also enriched himself, had many people killed. He encouraged trade and business, especially with the US. He gave some WWll Jewish refugees a bunch of hard scrabble land on the North Coast and those people built Sosua, and that is why he did it. The Mayor of Sosua today is "Nueman". He is often remembered for the murders of the Mirabal sisters.

One thing the government should do is pay police much more. I read somewhere that the Attorney General (whatever they call it there) is worth like 40 Million. Based on his salary he should have a net worth of 600K. I think Oderbrecht was a huge cash cow of bribery for many in the DR.
