The governor of Campeche, Layda Sansores San Román, criticized President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, stating that the state doesn’t even have enough to pay its electricity bill, yet it can afford to donate its best warehouse to the federal government.
“When they asked us for a place, a plant, one of the warehouses we had, well, we are poor because, as we’ve already said, we didn’t have enough to pay the electricity bill, but we can give the best warehouse we have for a plan devised by our president,” the governor of Campeche declared.
During the inauguration of the milk pasteurization plant as part of the Campeche Plan, Sansores reiterated what she has called a “cursed formula” that keeps the state in poverty. She warned that Pemex does not generate profits to cover state expenses.
“Just a few days ago, we were crying out about the wounds left by this cursed formula, as we call it, and we were saying how Campeche, which ignited the world, Mexico, couldn’t even pay its electricity bill that day, because the resources they give us are specifically for operational expenses. The money Pemex gives us can’t be taken from other sources; the money we get from the Treasury through oil contributions. And today, ironically, we’re celebrating this plant as if it were world-class,” said Layda Sansores.
In response, Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum announced that university students in Campeche will receive the Gertrudis Bocanegra scholarship, and although the governor doesn’t have the funds, she will also contribute.
“It’s also thanks to the governor, because even though Campeche has limited resources, we are combining both our resources for the scholarship for university students,” she stated.
Layda Sansores also took the opportunity to point out that the pasteurization plant that will produce “Welfare Milk” will cause envy in “our friend Huacho,” the governor of Yucatán, Joaquín Díaz Mena.
“Our friend Huacho (sic) hasn’t arrived yet, but he’s going to be so envious, you wouldn’t believe it. Milk for Yucatán will come from this plant. The pasteurized milk is top-notch. It will go to Quintana Roo, and soon we’ll be supplying Mexico, I think, and soon we’ll be exporting. It’s a pleasure and a source of pride because all of this is part of the Campeche Plan,” she added.
