Camilo Pérez met with the Bolivian community and proposed changes for Mercado 4

Ahead of the municipal elections on October 4, Camilo Pérez held a meeting with Luis Ignacio Riveros, president of the Bolivian community in Paraguay, a merchant at the Feria Boliviana and a resident of the Mercado 4 area, accompanied by members of the organization, according to ABC Color.

During the meeting, Pérez proposed a revitalization of Mercado 4 based on dialogue with the different sectors that are part of the daily activity of the area and recognized the contribution of the Bolivian community on the commercial, social and cultural levels.

According to ABC Color, Riveros described the situation of those who work and live in the area from his experience as a merchant and neighbor. Pérez, for his part, pointed to the potential of Mercado 4 and called for better conditions for workers, greater order, more services and the strengthening of the Bolivian commercial, cultural and traditional identity.

“The first step to transform Asunción is to listen. We want to understand the reality of those who work and live in each area in order to propose solutions that respond to their needs,” Pérez said, according to ABC Color.

Riveros said this is the first time a candidate for mayor of Asunción has called on the Bolivian community to discuss its needs. “For us, this opportunity is very important. We want to be an active part of the changes Asunción needs and we believe we can have that opportunity,” he said.
