Mexico Seeks Peace Amid Turmoil

**Seeking Peace Amidst Political Turmoil** As President López Obrador’s term nears its end, Mexico faces mounting political tensions. Citizens yearn for tranquility amidst the chaos, with hope pinned on new leaders to bring stability.

**Pleading for Tranquility Amidst Political Chaos**

With just about a month left until President López Obrador departs from the National Palace, the entire nation is gripped by a myriad of political tensions. The weight of these issues prevents citizens from managing personal, family, or social group problems effectively. There is a widespread yearning for peace with the forthcoming transition at both local and federal executive levels.

It’s astonishing to see individuals with minimal educational backgrounds or positional authorities express their anxiety and desire to restore tranquility. One concerned citizen shared her distress for her children and grandchildren, never imagining that a President, with immense professional commitment and legal representation, could act with such frivolity.

Before this turmoil, who really paid attention to “autonomous bodies”? A mere seven bodies are now condemned to disappear within days. One shop assistant, worried about her children’s back-to-school expenses, suddenly found herself using her cellphone to seek answers and was horrified by what she discovered.

Legislators from all parties, including Morena, Verde, and PT, inherited from PAN and PRI, should aim to fulfill their responsibilities—if unsure, perhaps a brief search on Wikipedia would help. Their primary duty should be towards Mexico and its socio-economically disadvantaged groups. The abjection with which they operate raises questions about their conscience and patriotism. Do they love a politician more than their country?

Autonomous bodies have made significant contributions. CONEVAL evaluates Social Development Policies; MEJOREDU ensures Continuous Improvement in Education; COFECE supervises Economic Competition; CNH oversees Hydrocarbons; CRE regulates Energy; and IFT handles Telecommunications. The crown jewel: INAI, which grants Mexicans, regardless of social or economic status, “access to transparency, information, and protection of personal data.” It has been constantly ignored and stepped upon, especially by public officials from top-ranking ones to secretaries of agreements. This foundational document, created 22 years ago, safeguards our right to information.

**Additional Notes:**
1. New local government leaders will soon be in office. Except for Mexicali, which placed its trust in Norma Bustamante. Wishing her success!
2. Abandoned cars without updated plates are a nuisance, occupying spaces meant for residents. Are they stolen?
3. The abundance of personal ads stuck on palm trees and urban equipment is rampant and illegal.

**Growing Tensions as Political Transitions Approaching**

As the clock ticks down to President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s exit from office, the nation is steeped in mounting unrest. President López Obrador’s policy decisions and management style have left a significant section of the population uneasy. This sentiment isn’t limited to specific classes or sectors; it spreads across workers in both private and governmental sectors.

In a related development, as new administrations prepare to take charge in various municipalities, Mexicali stands out by electing Norma Bustamante, raising hopes for stability and effective governance amidst the chaos.

Moreover, the ongoing debates around the potential dissolution of key autonomous bodies such as INAI and COFECE have sparked fears of increased opacity and corruption. These organizations have been critical in ensuring transparency and competition within essential sectors of the Mexican economy.

Adding to the complexity is the rampant illegal placement of personal adverts on urban infrastructure, including palm trees and street furniture. This activity, although penalized, continues unabated, reflecting broader issues of public discipline and regulatory enforcement.

The next few weeks are poised to be highly significant for Mexico as the nation watches intently, hoping for a shift that will bring back some semblance of normalcy and order.

These unfolding events suggest that the political landscape in Mexico is on the brink of significant changes, with potential ramifications for transparency, governance, and civil order.
