After honoring the work of Navy Secretary Vidal Francisco Soberón Sanz on Navy Day, President Enrique Peña Nieto unveiled Sunday an ambitious program to modernize Mexican ports and its maritime fleet.
At an official dinner in Tampico, Tamaulipas to honor members of the Navy and all maritime workers, the president outlined a four-part plan for the future of Mexican maritime policy.
The first is to update the regulatory framework for the protection of the seas and ports.
The second part will expand and modernize the port infrastructure, the third will invest more than 3 billion pesos in the fishing industry, and the fourth will modernize the maritime fleet.
The president took the opportunity to highlight the agreement signed by the Navy’s Soberón and Secretary of Tourism Claudia Ruiz Massieu Salinas to train and certify lifeguards working on the tourist beaches of Mexico.
“We will work together to stop the inertia which threatens to slow our development,” said Soberón. “Reform is a positive change that will bring prosperity to Mexico.”
He expressed his solidarity with the president in support of structural reform, especially in the energy sector.
As part of the celebration of Navy Day, President Peña Nieto led a ceremony to honor sailors who have died in the line of duty, for which he threw a wreath into the sea from the ship Papaloapan
