Businessman and communicator Santiago Matías has been involved in a heated exchange of statements after publicly responding to Angelita Peña, who recently expressed her fed-up attitude regarding various problems plaguing the Dominican Republic, such as the management of public resources, traffic chaos, the energy crisis, and citizen insecurity.
Matías, far from staying silent, used his platforms to question Peña’s stance, pointing out that, just as she expresses exhaustion with the country’s situation, there is a significant part of the population that also feels exhausted by figures with a long political trajectory in various administrations and parties.

Questions regarding career and judicial processes
During his speech, Matías questioned Peña’s political consistency, pointing out his multiple changes of allegiance and his historical ties to various sectors of the State. Likewise, the communicator questioned his professional merits and his time in public administration, where he has held positions such as the Vice Ministry of Nuclear Energy and the presidency of the Dominican Green Party.
One of the most critical points of Matías’s response was the mention of a judicial process reported in 2024, related to an alleged real estate operation in Casa de Campo, La Romana. The case, initiated by the company Inversiones CIAAR, involves the offshore entity Palm Beach Worldwide, based in Panama, in a transaction that reportedly exceeded five million dollars.
- The point of conflict: Matías demanded transparency regarding the outcome of said judicial process and the veracity of the accusations presented at the time.
- Public context: It is essential to clarify that these mentions are based on accusations exposed in the legal sphere and do not represent a definitive sentence of guilt.
This confrontation has reignited the national debate regarding the permanence of political figures within State structures and the demand for accountability in both the public and private sectors. As of now, the exchange remains one of the most relevant topics in public opinion, awaiting a possible response from Angelita Peña to the direct accusations made by Santiago Matías.
