on Wednesday announced that he will maintain much closer communication with transportation workers, following his participation in a meeting with various unions.
The meeting took place at the itinerant security module located in the Acho area, Lima's Rimac district.
"From now on, we will maintain much closer communication with the transportation sector—that is the main message. I am not inviting them to the Government Palace; I am coming to where they are. This is part of my approach. It may be in the morning; if they call me at night, I will go; in the early hours as well, we will have to do it," he expressed.
The top official clarified that he met not only with the unions that promoted today's strike, but also with another segment of transport drivers, in order to hear the demands of those who are affected by attacks linked to crime.
Furthermore, the Head of State reiterated that the regulations aimed at supporting actions against extortion and contract killings will be published no later than January 18.
Citizen Security Plan
At another point, the President said the National Citizen Security Plan will be presented in the coming days, at which time the results achieved following the declaration of the state of emergency will be announced.
"We will present the official figures, and that is where it will be seen whether the state of emergency is working or not. When we present the plan, we will present the figures," he announced.
Likewise, the top official explained that this plan will serve as a roadmap enabling the current and future governments to act in a coordinated manner against crime and delinquency.
At another point, the President announced that he will respond in writing to the questions submitted by Congress' Oversight Commission regarding a meeting he held with a Chinese citizen in Lima's San Borja district.
