Abinader responds to complaints about Chinese trade: everyone has to comply with the law

President Luis Abinader stated that all businesses operating within the Dominican Republic must adhere to national laws, regardless of the owners' nationality. This declaration comes in response to growing complaints from local commercial sectors regarding the operations of Chinese-owned businesses in the country.

The president's remarks emphasize the government's stance on regulatory compliance and the equal application of legal standards for all commercial entities. The issue remains a point of contention among domestic business groups, prompting the administration to clarify that foreign-owned enterprises are subject to the same oversight as local firms.
