Coparmex proposes economic rescue plan for Sinaloa

The Confederation of Employers of the Mexican Republic (Coparmex) has presented an economic reactivation plan to the Sinaloa government to combat regional decline. The proposal addresses the loss of 44,000 formal jobs, rising informality levels reaching 49 percent, and the impact of organized crime on commerce and services.

Coparmex leaders emphasized that economic recovery is unfeasible without first restoring public security, citing increased extortion and violence stemming from conflicts between cartel factions. The proposed agenda includes strengthening security through increased budgets for intelligence and judicial investigation, as well as technical support for the agricultural sector through improved credit lines and price coverage for small and medium producers.
