Mexico’s president wants to develop the poorer south

and in central Mexico churn out cars, aerospace parts and medical devices. By contrast the south has yet to find a productive niche. Chiapas is among the country’s three least attractive states for investment, according to, a think-tank. The other two, Guerrero and Oaxaca, are also in the south. In Chiapas three-quarters of people are poor, according to a measure which takes into account access to services .

At the same time, the United States government is investing in Central America and southern Mexico, in the hope that this might reduce emigration. Organisations funded by, the government’s development arm, work with farmers such as Mr Gamboa to help them grow more and better crops, and to connect them to buyers. In JulyMexico’s southern states suffer from many problems. For a start, they are farther from the United States, the main market for Mexican goods.

Similarly the Maya train is opposed by many of the people whose fields or villages it will despoil. A better use of government funds would be to improve local infrastructure such as the electricity grid, to make sure people have a reliable and affordable energy supply. Mr Gamboa grumbles that his village only got power in 2019.

You are the do you belive that is true!

No he doesn't. He need them to be ignorant so he can keep on using them for votes

You guys never been to mexico I can tell? Or at least left the resorts ?

Si López Odiador quisiese llevar desarrollo al Sur, porqué incentiva la pobreza e Ignorancia en ésa región? Porqué les usa como bestias en acarreos para sus Locuras? Porqué les pone gobernador como Salgado Macetonio,un Criminal?

Ahí hay una grave equivocación; claro que ésos trabajadores pagan impuestos! Los pobres son quienes más impuestos pagan. Y, el presidente no quiere llevar 'desarrollo' al Sur, quiere llevar riqueza a Slim y Salinas Pliego y familia López y Otros y destruir las comunidades sureñas

Mexicans working in USA on informal jobs are 100 % tax free ?

Same old garbage. As if everyone who’s unemployed is just sitting around waiting for education and training.

*do not pay ‘direct’ taxes

Mexico is one of world’s worst country as it relates to economic inequality.

'They are trying to follow the example of southern Italy in the mid-20th century, but since they're already importing massive quantities of cocaine and heroin into the country, there isn't an obvious path to mimic the same arc of growth.'

Pay to be kidnapped, a new wealth redistribution plan, genius.

What you're missing: the president doesn't give a F* about the natural reserves nor about the historical ruins found in the area. He wants to bulldoze the whole area and wreck the environment.

Great news, whatever it takes to make Mexico better pLace to Live!

What 😂

'wants'... He has been promising for 4 years as president exactly what he did for 20 years as candidate... And has done nothing but get it worse. Populists speech of leftist, they need people to stay poor, otherwise, who would vote for them if they despise the middle class?

lopezobrador_ really just wants more power and to embezzle more money. All else is just propaganda. should not be a political propaganda tool. But it is.
