Protests reported in Mexico and Argentina over financial and utility disputes

In Mexico, customers of the auto-financing company ACSESA protested at the company's facilities in Chihuahua. The demonstrators are demanding the immediate return of their money, citing delays in vehicle deliveries that exceeded contractual terms. While ACSESA proposed a deadline of September 10 for reimbursements, protesters rejected the delay, seeking the return of down payments and other contributions.

In Argentina, residents of Belén, Catamarca, are protesting significant increases in electricity bills, with some reports showing costs rising from approximately $85,000 to nearly $200,000. Local officials have called for transparency regarding infrastructure investments and service quality, noting that low voltage has caused damage to appliances.

Additionally, scholarship recipients in Catamarca have directed public demands to Governor Raúl Jalil, seeking clarity on delayed salary payments. The recipients emphasized the economic hardship caused by the lack of predictable income for basic household needs.
