Peruvian President Martin Vizcarra on Monday disclosed he will not stop visiting regions across the country as this is a new policy implemented by his administration.
According to Vizcarra, he and State ministers will visit Cajamarca and Jauja cities within the framework of the upcoming
Muni-Executive Power meetings. First stops included Puno and
Pucallpa.
Likewise, the Peruvian leader stressed the importance of this new policy, which fosters
dialogue and meetings with regional governments, saying it has received positive feedback from mayors and inland authorities.
"We listened to your needs during the working visits and started to examine what is feasible, along with government officials and the Economy and Finance Minister David Tuesta himself," he expressed.
In this sense, the statesman explained the Executive Power has committed over S/200 million (about US$61.1 million) in resources —towards basic and necessary works— for the benefit of Puno and Ucayali regions this year.
"This mechanism has been a success. To check this, ask mayors what they think about this form of Government. They haven't seen it before. Unfortunately, they are leaving by the end of the year," he said.
