Though the Dominican Republic suffers from its own social and economic maladies – it is itself an exporter of emigrants to the US, Puerto Rico, and Spain – it certainly has a role to play in Haiti’s reconstruction. But it must supersede the exclusivist attitudes held by many members of its political class, particularly given that much of its economic growth in recent years reflects the contribution of Haitian immigration.
尽管多米尼加共和国自身也存在社会和经济问题——这个国家自己也向美国、波多黎各和西班牙输出移民——但是它肯定可以在海地重建中发挥作用。 不过尤其考虑到多米尼加近年来的经济发展在很大程度上反映了海地移民的贡献，因此它必需摒弃政治阶层不少人持有的排外态度。
