The MORENA legislator, Alfonso Ramírez Cuellar, called for trust in the Plan Mexico and assured that Private Investment will have significant improvements. The director of the Deacero Group, Raúl Gutiérrez Durán, emphasized the need to renew the little trust that exists between the private sector and the federal government, and to improve local value chains; he also stated that Mexico cannot rely on social policy, a situation that has limited the country's economic potential.
"We need national investment, to renew the trust between the public and private sector, it is worn out by conflicts, but without trust the country cannot move forward," he said.
"You should be calm, happy, and decided to invest more. The president has a direction, which is Plan Mexico, wanting to strengthen it. Private Investment has a promoter, which is infrastructure for well-being, which are communication routes, it is everything related to solid waste treatment... we have a budget with 2.5 of GDP in infrastructure, we want to reach more than 6%," sentenced the deputy.
At the event were Senators Waldo Fernández and Judith Díaz, as well as the honorary host and mayor of Escobedo, Andrés Mijes.
"We need to invest more and better, 90% of investment comes from the private sector, most of it is national investment, 9% is foreign. The private sector cannot be considered an adversary of the State... development cannot depend on social spending... that is why at this meeting it is important to put investment at the center of the growth strategy," he added.
In response to this, the federal deputy from Morena, Alfonso Ramírez Cuellar, assured that in San Lázaro they will analyze legislation on infrastructure to lay the groundwork for investment regulations in the country.
"During the last three decades, the economic model that boosted Foreign Direct Investment and the growth of manufacturers allowed us to get involved in global trade. We have managed to get millions of people out of poverty, the second floor of the transformation wants a level floor, Private Investment is going to improve," he added.
On the other hand, he also touched on a topic that concerned businessmen. In parallel, he asked for trust in President Claudia Sheinbaum's Plan Mexico and set a growth target of up to 29% of GDP heading towards 2030.
"We want to generate trust, the president believes in development, in economic growth and shared well-being. Now that you tell us, yes, we are looking for legislation that regulates everything in the industrial sector. By 2026 we have 500 million pesos, investment is 24% of GDP and we want to reach 29% in 2030," said the legislator.
Public investment represents 10% of the total. 90% is private, 10% is public. He also requested the creation of the Regulatory Law of Industrial Policy to lay the foundations.
"Growth is limited, with regions advancing at different speeds and not generating the formal employment that the country requires," said Gutiérrez.
"Today, this push has not been enough to unleash the potential of a nation with great productive capacity, more inclusive. During a dialogue between businessmen and government authorities organized by CMIC in Nuevo León, industrialists showed their concern about the relationship between the federal government and the private industry."
"This helps us lay the foundations, that is why one of the most important tables of the meeting is the new legal framework... an evaluation of what we have done and to see the main infrastructure projects, we come with the best spirit."
He affirmed that Mexico has no economic problems and assured that they would use the "billions of pesos" from the Afores, and other credit entities:
"We do not have a resource problem, Mexico has billions of pesos immobilized, how are we going to boost that economy, using the billions of pesos that are in the Afores, in Banobras, in the credit institutions, using these methods seeking fair measures...to build a country requires private investment."
He was also questioned about the uncertainty through the Amparo Law and the change in the Supreme Court of Justice, to which he limited himself to asking for "calm" to the businessmen and to trust in Plan Mexico, which supports "a budget with 2.5 of GDP in infrastructure".
Also mayors such as Adrián de la Garza and Jesús Nava, as well as local deputies.
