Let them in, then follow the money to your local Quirino and zap 'em on a plane to South District Court!

The PLD is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO different from the PRD!

Guillermo Moreno Presidente 2012!

They really don't transfer the vehicle to "third" parties, but just sell the exonerations or duty free rights to end users or new car dealers for about US$25,000 dollars, and then they choose whatever car they want to bring in.
I have seen several Bentleys, Ferraris, Lambo's and other real expensive brands, parading in the SD streets imported with this type of legislator fringe benefits.

Hey professor why did Freddy Krueger get banned this time?

josean
I don't really know the reason, and we are investigating if he was "flamed" by a recurrent snitch who could not stand poor Fred. Vacanos also got banned as well at the same time, so that leaves you guessing on who the perp might have been................But the good news is that they might be back real soon. Fred has his faults and all that, but he was witty and funny. Vacanos was so funny, and is a shame they pulled the plug on them due to a "calié" making things up.

Enough already. Is there no hope for honest government officials? I guess not.

if they are tax exem then everyone should be.

I heard that if you are born in DR and live in the states but still have a home address in DR, that you can send a car tax free every 5 years. Is that true?
I am Dominican born in USA, if I get dual citizenship (both parents were born in DR) will I qualify for the tax free import?
I have sent a few vehicles down there and they rape you wiith taxes.

The level and amount of corruption in this country is so bad and obvious it makes me sick. I love my country but I hate the people ruining it and sucking the life from our poor people. One day god help us we will all be treated the same and a leader will be elected to put an end to the corruption.

xwill
Not true. They do give certain "tax advantages" to the Dominicans and foreign residents of a partial exoneration, depending on how long you have had the vehicle, and goes by sliding scale. Personally I believe is a scam, and you are better off finding a "friendly" dealer and letting him import the car and pay his reduced taxes.

I think that you are right. This guy paid someone in NYC to do the whole deal for him. He was even able to send a car over 5 years old. I have a pimped out muscle car that I want to send but I think that who ever sends it for me has to be someone well connected.

lol, finding a friendly dealer in DR???

generoso,
Have you heard anything on the 2009 Toyota Tundra??? I heard that the back bed bounces when you are driving kind of fast in the campo. Its a sick looking truck and has a ton of power

lol no wonder the greatest defenders of "democracy" work for the government.

all i Know that the toyota tundra looks bad-ass. like how many HP does it has?

xwill7
The Toyota Tundra's are very popular here, and the resale is excellent, I only hear good things about them. But you have to evaluate the stiffer ride in trucks and the Tundra's gas consumption as well.

That guy who said that nepotism is not an act of corruption is probably one of them, maybe he is the owner of that Royce........

corruption, corruption corruption....did I say.... Corruption !

So guys I have a question????


We are always complaining about corruption, no?

And right here two guys are talking about evading paying import tarifs on a muscle car?

A bit ironic, no?

If its the law and we want the law applied to the corrupt politicians shouldn't it apply to you. Now I no you will say but wait if I pay that tarif it will only go to the pocket of a corrupt politician, and to that i ask you then where does it end? So you see you are, like many countrymen, perpetuating the cycle of corruption.

Just some food for thought.

amen

HiHater = On the money

MorGIz,

I care!!!!!

Dios, Patria, Libertad

Y usted no tienes el interes de tu patria en mente.

Thank you Basta and Bleu!!!

Oh well, I guess MorGIz retracted his statement. Perhaps his conscience broke through his selfishness.

The country needs a revolution and remove all the corrupted polticians that are running the country, if the population don't rise up it will be a sign of weakness !

the problem comes at every level, we can change Government. People need to stop putting their faith ( blind) in their government. Its not enough to elect them ( and than expect them to change everything) we have to make accountable and stay on their back until they do what is right and in the best interest of the PEOPLE ( the Masses) not their friends and family.

Follow the money.

This is total BS.

LF, remember "Zero Tolerance".

Why government officials get better tax breaks than the rest of its citizens is another form of corruption. Send these corrupt officials to jail and take all their assets to support the poor. Stop letting the corrupt officials suck the life from our poor.

Les dirigeants Dominicains importent des automobiles qui valent plus de 1million.
Mais c'est mêmes dirigeants ne se gêne pas pour demander au FMI et à leurs pays alliés de les aidés à boucler leur budget annuel en leur donnant des millions par année.
Pour ma part je suis écœuré que le Canada envoi 10millions par année en R.D. avec mes impôts et que cette argent serve vos fraudeurs politique.
Bonne réflexion.

Líderes dominicanos importación de automóviles por valor de más de 1 millón.
Pero que los mismos dirigentes, no dude en pedir al FMI y sus aliados para ayudar a fin de mes en sus millones anual en el que un año.
Por mi parte, estoy disgustado de que Canadá envió 10 millones anuales en I & D con mis impuestos y ese dinero sirve a los defraudadores de su política.
Bien pensado.



Leaders Dominicans import cars worth more than 1 million.
But that same leaders do not hesitate to ask the IMF and their allies to help make ends meet in their annual giving millions a year.

Remarquer que je n'ai rien contre le fait que le Canada envoi 10 millions par année en R.D.
Seulement ce 10 millions doit aider le peuple Dominicain et non aider les fraudeurs politique à acheter des voitures de luxe.


Note that I have nothing against the fact that Canada sending 10 million annually in R & D
Only the 10 million to help the Dominican people and not help the political fraudsters to buy luxury cars.

Hmmm doesn't Canada make a resarch first b4 lending or giving money to DR? They should know the fate of moola when i it is sent to DR

We don't need handouts...I find that so offensive, but many politicians have no shame.

such a bull shix story.......

dr is such a place full of corruptions.......

leonel , you allow this happen and have the most dominican suffer the life.......????? where is your conscience????

@ Perez,
Hmmm doesn't Canada make a resarch first b4 lending or giving money to DR? They should know the fate of moola when i it is sent to DR.

Can you be direct,for me you tack china.

@ perez.
If you don't know,it's more than 20 years we help ( Canada) the R.D. and we are proud to help the Dominica people.
But I don't want help somebody to pay a Cadillac.

Perez, canada does not check what the money is use for... they dont care... It just a nice little gesture to look good, pay "understanding" for canadian company doing business in DR And anyway...they dont even know what happens with their money !

Wow ! SHOCKING.....So why am I shocked ?

@ Bleu_raven,
Vous avez raison,et les Canadiens se demandent de plus en plus où va leurs impôts.
Car n'oubliez pas que les Québécois sont le peuple le plus taxer de la planète.
50% de notre revenu va en impôts,plus les taxes scolaire, plus les taxes municipales, plus la taxe de vente Féderale,plus la taxe de vente provinciale,plus les congés de maternité, plus les garderies,plus le plan des médicaments.Et c'est sûr que j'en oubli.
Pourquoi croyez-vous que j'était heureux de travailler en R.D.???


You're right, and Canadians are wondering more and more when their taxes go.
For sure that Quebecers are the most taxed people on the planet.
50% of our income goes to taxes, plus school fees, plus municipal taxes, plus federal sales tax, plus provincial sales tax, plus maternity, more daycare, more in terms of medicamentsAnd for sure that I forget.
Why do you think I was fortunate to work in the DR??

To ALL,
I'm Still waiting.....and waiting and waiting.....
Now I'm really more SHOCKED then before.....
No body has yet to ask yet....WHERE IN THE H$%# DID HE GET THE MONEY TO MAKE SUCH A PURCHASE LIKE THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE !
Am I missing something or what !

the government here is so corrupted its not even funny.u know a senetor here makes about 8 to 10,000 dollars a month no tax.plus the government give them about 3,000 stipen 4 employess.what a scam.i can't even bring my 2001 bmw cause they want 2 charge me 7,000 dollars to take it out at the port.

I believe they base that % on the value of the Vehicle....I bet if you said " Forget that it's cheaper to ship it back" they might have a change of heart.
I wish you luck.

this story is nothing new.

I just want to know who is the UBBER-CHOPO who wants a Rolls Royce in the DR?
