National The government from Mexico City Advanced in the nation By: Carlos Damián September 18, 2012 Marcelo Ebrard: it early reforms the Mexico City México. – The last report of government of Marcel Ebrard gives cause to a revision of that achieved up to now in the capital of the country in the past six years, as well as of the pending tasks and of the mistaken decisions. In the first place, in the Federal District the government left-wing validated in overwhelming form the changes, in the last elections, the civic back to three half a decade of progressive governments and with social orientation that, you like or not, they have placed to the entity to the vanguard of the country and they have returned them exception in the national environment, torn by the violence, the lack of political social and the patrimonial power. To the advances as regards social well-being of the previous administration adds, in this, a remarkable amplification of the freedoms and the rights, particularly for that it makes to those of sex and reproductive. The decriminalization of the abortion and the unions among people of the same sex are the main achievements. Besides, the social politics was inherited the administration of Ebrard it has been preserved and enlarged, and it has allowed it to maintain a constant advance in the indexes of human development. Balance positive non minor is that the Federal District has been able to maintain relatively to line to the organized delinquency. Up to now, in the space of the capital, the confrontations and the combats have been exception and not daily norm, like it happens unfortunately in other entities. This situation doesn't only denote bigger police effectiveness, but it also confirms the relevancy of attacking to the crime rate from its roots by means of a resolved and defined social politics. The progressive government cycle in the Federal District should have faced the hostility and the pursuit of two federal administrations - Vicente Fox administration and now that of Felipe Calderon - against the city and the governments. The ill will of the governments PAN-men and of the Legislative dominated by the PAN and for the PRI, he has shown in diverse environments: the bitchy handling of the aquatic resources for the National Commission of the Water, the blow that meant for the Mexico Valley the sudden elimination of the company that managed the electricity: Luz y Fuerza del Centro, and the constant knocking budgets and legislative that it has prevented to the capital to have the budgets and of the appropriate juridical mark for their development. Besides the city continues taking its own and enormous development giant's weight on the back, and it is expressed it in phenomenon of contamination, insecurity, transport and vehicular traffic that they have not been able to be resolved. Especially preoccupant is the lack of operability of the transport and of the viability that charges the inhabitants of the capital of Mexico a limitless imposed in time and life, and that it has not been solved with the amplification of the metropolitan transport, the corridors “zero emissions", the impulse to the cycling, the development of the Metrobus and the work accumulated vial of two federal administrations six years old that it is much. The political left-wing in the Federal District Marcelo Ebrard goes closing with success his political responsibility when giving to the citizenship his sixth report of activities like the government's boss of the Mexican capital, this good success goes opening up in route to his to his maximum challenge when surviving politically during five years, to reach the candidacy to the presidency of the republic together with an amalgam of forces, calls of "progress ", with theirs respective forms and content that are foreshadowed in these years. This character was educated in time of the Salinas’ politics line, under it guides his of Manuel Camacho Solis, this period that is to complete, in comparison to its previous governments as: Cuauhtemoc Cardenas and AMLO, didn't make it, taken by new electoral aspirations that took them to the separation of their position in those years. With this political character three serial cycles of the left-wing movement have been completed in the power, and in spite of the national picture of decomposition, the institutional operation in the capital of the country is flowed and acceptable, in reason of the size of the metropolis predisposed to the chaos and the challenges that have known how to draw the violence overflowed in other latitudes, by virtue of this acceptable security it has become common to mention in Mexico, that that in the past was difficult to mention this degree of security. Although it is worthy of mentioning that this character was not a left man, but a reformist of origin Salinas’ politics line to the one that the politics’ changes have taken to the PRD, it also impelled legal reformations that his predecessor, AMLO, didn't want to support, as much for electoral calculations as for own conviction in matters of sexuality. Marcelo Ebrard faced had poisoned right characters as the cardinal of Guadalajara, Juan Sandoval Iniguez. In the personal land it crossed with dignity several mined fields: the desert to which was thrown by the kindred group to Camacho after Luis Donaldo Colosio murder, the lynching of Tlahuac when it was responsible for public security in D. F. and the marshy resolution of the candidacy for president of the PRD in front of a certain AMLO. Although it is shipwrecked the way in that it finished taking and greeting the Felipe Calderon although he had promised to avoid any recognition form to the tenant of Los Pinos residence. Ebrard is a character with lack of charisma, predisposed to favor to doubtful companies that usually generate retributions with the works cannot be investigated, governed by the philosophy Carlos Salinas-Camacho Solis of the agreements and of a cosmetic of political reformism, he stops its office in front of the Constitution Square with clear intentions to occupy the presidential office of National Palace that gives in front of “Zocalo”. In this point it is preoccupant and lamentable the turn privatizes’ politics line introduced by the government of Ebrard in the construction of works of roads and bridges. Contrary to that made in the previous administration that built works of great importance and of gratuitous use, the current one opted to give big tracts of space public to exploitation by concessions and of pay, what implies to sacrifice the public interest to private interests. It is distorted, with these actions, the social sense of the governing project in Mexico City. It is necessary to hope the new government is able to restore in this point, for own conviction or for the social pressure, the coherence and the continuity of the political project that it has been sustained during 15 years in the Federal District (La Jornada, economia y justicia social, p.p. 4-5, September 19, 2012).
