HI have made a life commitment to Dominican democracy and the right requirements that the Dominican people have to move forward in development. In this context, strengthening the political party system is essential. As part of the Central Committee of the Dominican Liberation Party, I took on the task of working hard in this ninth Congress, Dr. José Joaquín Bidó Medina, to energize, strengthen and transform the party founded by Professor Juan Bosch.
As part of this effort and the promotion of a broad unification of criteria in the organization, which allows the establishment of a roadmap that embodies in real transformations the desire for renewal that was expressed at the polls last Sunday, February 14, with the election of 300 new members To the Central Committee, we have prepared a set of proposals for modernizing and updating the PLD to version 4.0. This is to promote a strong and dynamic process that allows us to regain the majority favor of the Dominican people in order to return to the leadership of national destinies in favor of the vast majority. To this end we propose:
1) Defining a new vision of the country that allows the construction of a national development project in accordance with the new times. In 20 years of government, the PLD has transformed the country described by Juan Bosch into the Dominican Social Composition and we need to update our social diagnosis and design a new path based on the current context.
2) Activate all management, media and core bodies. Back to the game with a solid organic life. Establishing new working methods and streamlining communication between grassroots and management organizations. Eradicate individualism in party decisions and return to a general approach, always analyzing particularity.
3) Become a party at the forefront of transparency. Adopt the ISO 31000 standard on risk prevention, money laundering and terrorist financing. Breaking the culture of discretion and declaring war on corruption.
4) Promoting a model of political leadership based on knowledge and ideas. The National House must again be a center of training and education, with international conferences, discussions, workshops and debates.
5) Create an office to analyze and evaluate the budget and economic impact of legislation to support our congressmen in a supervisory role and provide quality information to the public on the evolution of the national economy.
6) Unprecedented technological modernization: implement a party application for communication, financial management and monitoring of party organizations. Use artificial intelligence and Big Data to design political and communication actions.
7) The new editorial production and content creation: the relaunch of Vanguardia del Pueblo as an open space and including a Podcast on issues of competence of each party secretary. Quality content for the 21st century.
8) PLD cause party: Activate the 39 secretaries and a liaison agenda with social organizations. PLD must accompany people in their struggles and social, economic, environmental and institutional demands.
9) Launch new fundraising methods to enable the party to have resources for social assistance projects that have an impact on people and communities, adequately fund its activities and open stores nationwide. A PLD present and in solidarity for Dominicans
10) Create a stronger connection with Dominicans abroad and with young people trained abroad. Build more inclusive and supportive public policy proposals that better reflect the needs of a more critical and active citizenry. Bottom line: back to Bosch, but version 4.0
