The aim of this group is to control how the municipality and the state institutions invest the funds.
José Luis Sigüil, from the Kim Tzuk Pop Movement, stated that the monitoring center is comprised of his organization, the Economic Bureau, the Management Group, the Occident’s Roundtable and the Municipal Development Councils. He explained that the idea of the group setup originated after the disasters caused by the storm Agatha with the intention to monitor public money spending.
Orlando Quemé, from the Economic Bureau, informed that they will also monitor the reconstruction of the affected areas since in 2005, the social fabric had already been damaged by the Hurricane Stan, and five years later it is aggrieved by Agatha. According to the members of the monitoring center, it has become clear that the management of resources is defective, they are used for other purposes and not to carry out quality and long term work.
