A Border Wall Going Up between Haiti and the Dominican Republic

Who said border walls don't work?

This also begs the question why is the Dominican Republic more successful then Haiti? One answer is tourism (over 10 million visitors in 2023). E.g. "The Dominican Republic is ranked 65th out of the world's major economies, based on its 2022 GDP of $10,111 per capita. It is also the ninth largest economy in Latin America"

"This is the latest phase in centuries of bitter division on the shared Caribbean island of Hispaniola. The 250-mile, $120 million barrier is meant to block human smugglers and criminals from crossing the border, according to Dominican President Luis Abinader, who signed off on construction plans three years ago. Beyond complaints from human rights and religious groups, there is little opposition."

"The Dominican Republic is speeding up work on a wall along the 250-mile border cutting across the interior of the island."

Donate to the Texas Border Wall funding!

I just did and I feel good about it! Why are you hesitating? Is the border crisis not serious enough? No sovereign state can allow such illegal massive immigration and human and other criminal activity trafficking across its border!  

Building the legacy of President Trump! A border wall instead of Mount Rushmore!

Bravo Governor Greg Abbott! Let We The People finance the border wall! Hope the Governor will advertise this more strongly!

Mexico Is Already Paying For The Border Wall Since Election

Posted: 1/26/2017

I am not sure where President Trump is going with this campaign promise to build a wall. Apparently, he is getting serious building an improved physical barrier on the border to Mexico. Presumably, there will be also more modern means of surveillance along the border, like drones or other devices like radar or infrared.

On a quick note, Mexico is indeed already paying for this campaign promise. The Mexican peso depreciated significantly since the November 8 election. I suspect, foreign direct investments have began to slow down. American companies are thinking twice now about any future investments across the border.

One can only hope that President Trump will negotiate with President Nieto how the high incidence of crimes in Mexico and other central American states can be reduced. Mexico also needs to check and stop the flow of emigrants from other countries passing through Mexico to reach the U.S.
