\nGovernor De \u00d3leo praised the facilities and highlighted the importance of young people from Pedernales having access to this training space, which receives students from different locations in the Enriquillo region.
\n\u201cWe are here at the Guarocuya Vocational Technical School with some young people who have graduated from high school and others who are currently studying for their high school diploma. I found it extremely beautiful and, above all, I want to applaud this initiative of our President Luis Abinader to keep this old Guarocuya school in Barahona, where today students are being trained not only from Barahona, but also from the Enriquillo region, where we, the residents of Pedernales, will also benefit,\u201d he expressed.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe decided to come and bring these young people so they would get excited and know what this INFOTEP training center is about and what it's for. I really thought the tour was wonderful,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
