Apparently, the Mayor-elect of Mazatlan, Estrella Palacios Dominguezless than a month and a half after taking office, is dealing with form alliances not only with local sectors, but also at the federal level. Apparently, over the weekend, Palacios Domínguez met with Julio Berdegué Sacristán from Mazatlán, the next Secretary of Agriculture, appointed by the president-elect, Claudia Sheinbaum. On her social networks, she does not clarify what issues she addressed with the next official, but she did emphasize that she is sure that he will be a great ally on the road to a more sustainable Mazatlán with development for all. We will see.
The truth is that Star Palacios, The mayor of Mazatlán, who would be the first female mayor, has held meetings with practically all the productive sectors of the municipality. Let’s hope that this will make it easier for the next municipal president to choose the most suitable officials to accompany her in her cabinet for the next three years. By the way, will she not give any advance notice? Because in other municipalities, the elected mayors have already presented some of the prospects, such as officials who will be in the secretariats. There is no doubt that she still wants to keep a low profile.
The insecurity that has been experienced in the state for more than a week has kept the representatives of the chamber organizations of Mazatlán very alert and expectant, fearing that investments could be lost if the clashes between criminal groups persist in the surroundings of the municipality. Yesterday, after attending the tribute and recognition to businessman Rodolfo Madero at the Association of Sales Executives, the chamber leaders of Coparmex, Canacintra and Canaco agreed in pointing out that there is uncertainty, and although the hotel representatives did not recognize a few days ago that there were cancellations of reservations, these businessmen assure that there was this foresight by tourists not to come to Mazatlán due to the situation that is happening on the roads to access the port. What has them most on edge, they say, is that they do not know when these clashes will cease, so they ask the government to intercede to restore order in Culiacán and in the other municipalities where they have been affected.
Collateral damage from this situation of violence in the state is that many trucks with grocery products have stopped coming to Mazatlán. Of the 30 cargo trucks that used to arrive daily, now only eight to 10 units arrive. This means that the arrival of trucks has dropped by two thirds. At the moment, they said, there is no shortage nor has there been an increase in prices, but if this situation continues, it is not ruled out that prices will rise and some basic products for the population and for tourists who come to the city for vacation will become scarce.
