00:00President Claudia Sheinbaum presented the Mexico Plan, a national and social economic
00:05development agenda made up of 13 goals, whose objective is to reduce poverty and inequality.
00:11Antonio Aranda brings us more details.
00:16Mexico seeks to consolidate its position as one of the most economically developed countries
00:21by attracting foreign investment and strengthening the domestic market through the Mexico Plan.
00:26Miguel is a walnut producer.
00:32His seeds follow an artisanal process, and he believes that the strategy should be an
00:37opportunity to technify the field.
00:42It is important to consume national products.
00:45In my case, I support agriculture.
00:51In the countryside, the main problem is technification.
00:54We are far behind our main competitors in walnuts, the United States.
00:58They are very technified and reduce many costs.
01:00We have to spend a lot of money to do it in a more traditional way, and that creates a
01:04disadvantage for us.
01:11Substituting imports and increasing domestic content in manufacturing is part of the Mexico
01:16Plan.
01:17Carolina acknowledges that this protects domestic jobs.
01:24With the plan, we increase the country's economy, and we favor jobs and, in general,
01:28the country's economy as a whole.
01:35We avoid importing so many products, and the products that we consume are at better prices.
01:40And on the other hand, we strengthen the entire agricultural sector.
01:49The Mexico Plan is a public, private and foreign investment route for at least $277
01:54billion, which seeks the integration of North America.
02:02This speaks to us, or is a reflection of what Claudia Scheinbaum is looking for during her
02:06six-year term.
02:08We can take this as the real national development plan.
02:11I would like to highlight that, in general, there are several components of the plan that
02:14wink at the new United States administration.
02:17That is, the president seeks to integrate the North American region, she seeks to increase
02:22Mexican production and replace imports from China, which is a priority issue for the new
02:27United States administration.
02:34President Claudia Scheinbaum aims to make Mexico's economy number 10 in the world, but
02:38without neglecting social equity and well-being.
02:46In reality, it is a vision of the development of our country that is equitable, sustainable,
02:50of industrialization, of economic growth, yes, but above all of well-being for our people
02:59and of benefit for everyone.
03:04Textiles, automotive, pharmaceuticals, agribusiness and electromobility are some of the key sectors
03:12to be developed through a portfolio of more than 2,000 projects that will allow the creation
03:19of at least 1.5 million additional jobs in specialized manufacturing by 2030.
