Entering his final year, Mexico’s president looks to wrap up unfinished business

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador begins the last year of his six-year mandate with favorable poll ratings but with several projects still pending.

pg3In December, he has promised to inaugurate the 1,300-kilometer Mayan Tourist Train route, the new state-owned airline and the Tulum International Airport.

That same month, he expects to open a “Super Farmacia” in Mexico City to house and distribute medicines purchased from “all over the world,” which will eliminate the shortages that have plagued his administration. He has also vowed that all the kinks in the IMSS-Bienestar health care program that replaced the Seguro Popular model will be resolved before he leaves office. He insists the system will provide free care for all citizens in Mexico on a par with those in European nations.
