4

In the magical town of Ajijic, and emphasizing that it is essential to listen to all positions in order to develop the State Development Plan, which will be the government’s program, the governor-elect of Jalisco, Pablo Lemus, met with nearly 150 civil society organizations. He explained that the objective is to define the state’s direction for the next six years, and that all opinions will be taken into account.

“Through these roundtables, we will work on the fight against inequality in the 125 municipalities of the state of Jalisco. There is representation from all regions of the state, because how we are going to confront inequality in the Ciénaga region is not the same as how we are going to do it in the northern part of Jalisco. They are diametrically different realities, but we have to work with those who truly understand the problem, which are the civil society organizations that have done extraordinary social work for decades.”

While leading the roundtable on combating inequality and social development, he said that together they must find mechanisms to support all sectors: corn farmers, cattle farmers, dairy farmers, agave farmers, and in general, all rural producers, based on their specific needs.

After leading the roundtable on combating inequality and the roundtable on industrial and agri-food development, the governor-elect of Jalisco, Pablo Lemus, announced that they are preparing for the most complex roundtable, on security, because they have already received requests and proposals from groups on the issues of missing persons and gender-based violence.

“We will, of course, also continue with the Security Roundtable, which will be extremely important. Today we are already beginning to talk about very important issues, such as the eradication of violence against women and the eradication and care of victims and families of forced disappearances. We must eradicate disappearances in Jalisco and we must care for its victims.”

Lemus Navarro said he has a very good relationship and closeness with the governors of Colima, Nayarit, Guanajuato, and in general all the states that border the state in the western region.

He admitted that the government cannot do it alone, and that the only way to find a solution to the serious and painful problem of forced disappearances will be to build it with the collectives and the families, to understand this reality that has brought grief to so many homes.
