The candidate for mayor of Asunción held a meeting with Luis Ignacio Riveros and other members of the Bolivian organization. At the meeting, he spoke about revitalizing Mercado 4 and addressing the demands of those who live and work in the area.
Camilo Pérez, candidate for mayor of Asunción on List 1, met with Luis Ignacio Riveros, president of the Bolivian community in Paraguay, merchant at the Feria Boliviana and resident of the Mercado 4 area, along with members of that organization.
According to La Nación Paraguay and ABC Color, during the meeting the revitalization of Mercado 4 was proposed through an approach with the different sectors that are part of its daily activity, with recognition of the contribution of the Bolivian community in commercial, social and cultural terms.
In that context, Riveros described the situation of those who work and live in the area from his experience as a merchant and resident. Pérez, for his part, pointed to the need to move forward with better conditions for workers, greater order and services, as well as strengthening the market’s 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 both media outlets.
Riveros said it is the first time a candidate for mayor has called on the Bolivian community to discuss its needs. He also said that for the sector it is important to be able to take part in the changes Asunción needs, according to La Nación Paraguay and ABC Color.
