SANTO DOMINGO.- Venezuela president Hugo Chavez will not come to the country to attend his colleague Leonel Fernandez’s inaugural for a third term, as the number of heads of State and Government in the ceremony still stands at 14.
Last night the Presidency’s Press office had confirmed that the Venezuelan leader was to arrive at 6 a.m. in Las Americas Airport International on a private flight, but Saturday morning that country's ambassador Francisco Belisario Landis said the poor weather conditions would prevent his presence.
Several heads of State are in the country, including Colombia's Alvaro Uribe, Chile's Michelle Bachelet, and Hati's Rene Preval. Spanish prince Felipe de Borbon is also among the dignitaries present.
Also present are the prime ministers of Belize, Dean Barrow, of St. Kitts & Nevis, Denzil Douglas, and of the Dutch Antilles, Emily D Jongh-Elhag.

Now, LF's office confirms Hugo is coming.
LF's office knows more about what's going on and who is coming than somebody who just spreads rumors.
I don't know why they spread the rumor Hugo isn't coming. What were they trying to gain by saying Hugo isn't coming.
Some people are so low down and bad.
Fay, don't get Hugo, for he's a great revolutionary and socialist, not the usual bourgeois scum, capitalist trash, and imperialist filth like G. W. Bush and Alvaro Uribe..
The two of you are like women... YOu have to talk about everything... Stop writing DUMB ASS COMMENTS

Santo Domingo, Aug 16 (Prensa Latina) Dominican President Leonel Fernandez starts his second consecutive mandate Saturday amid rains and gust of wind associated with tropical storm Fay.
The meteorological event is not Fernandez' larger concern for this second consecutive mandate, but the rise of food prices and raw materials are.
That circumstance have provoked an significant fall in the construction in the country.
There are some demands for an immediate reorganization and reconstitution of agriculture, one of the main national economic sectors.
A rise in criminality and drug trafficking, despite huge efforts, and fall in remittances from Dominican residents abroad, one of main sources of incomes, are also included in the list of pending issues to analyze by the head of State, who renewed his mandate in the May elections with over 54 percent of votes.
LF's office had a brain fart.
