Rigoberto Chamorro, candidate for mayor of Ciudad del Este for the Asociacif3n Nacional Republicana, said that the municipality’s main problem is not a lack of resources but rather the absence of transparency, planning and efficient administration, according to La Nacif3n Paraguay.

According to that outlet, Chamorro spoke after taking part in the Government Proposals Forum, organized by the Pastoral Universitaria, the Universidad Catf3lica Campus Alto Parane1, the Pastoral Social and the Dif3cesis de Ciudad del Este. There he said he seeks to reach City Hall with a proposal based on transparency, honesty and efficiency.

Still according to La Nacif3n Paraguay, the candidate criticized the administrations linked to the ousted former mayor Miguel Prieto and the political group YoCreo, whom he blamed for the city’s state of abandonment despite the resources handled by the municipality.

In that context, he said that last year G. 37 billion was allocated to public works and G. 120 billion to salaries. In another reference cited by the same outlet, he also mentioned municipal revenue levels and stressed that, in his view, the central problem lies in how those funds are managed.
