MEXICO CITY – Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) Senate Coordinator Emilio Gamboa Patrón said on Sunday that foreign investment levels in Mexico in 2014 will be higher than those seen last year, thanks to the passage of the energy and telecommunications reforms.

According to Gamboa Patrón, the passage of the energy reform at the end of 2013 attracted the world’s attention, which he said will lead to more productive investment and contribute to Mexico’s social and economic development. He added that the PRI bench in the Senate is prepared to build on this by passing secondary legislation.

“We are convinced that insisting on the construction of the reforms is to insist on a fairer country for everyone, which is why, besides moving forward the proposals sent by the president, we will also respond to the initiatives that, for the benefit of all people, arise from all parliamentary groups represented in the Senate,” he said.

Gamboa Patrón went on to say that, by paying close attention to the legislative agendas of the opposition National Action Party (PAN) and Democratic Revolution Party (PRD), the PRI will be able to find points of agreement that will allow congress to advance on the reforms that Mexico needs.

“We will maintain our view fixed on achieving improved social inclusion and a more prosperous nation,” he added. “We’re going down the right path, and even though the benefits will be seen in the medium term, there are encouraging signs.”
