AMLO visits Yucatán: the president supervises the Mayan Train without “notifying” the state government.
For the second consecutive time, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador visited Yucatán, privately, without even considering the State government, at least as far as could be found out from official sources, the State government was not even officially informed of the presidential visit.
According to witnesses, Obrador arrived in Yucatán from Campeche last Friday, May 10th, to spend the night in a hotel in front of the International Congress Center, from where he left on Saturday, May 11th, around 10:30 a.m. towards the Teya railway station, where he boarded the Maya Train to head to Valladolid.
Upon arriving at the Valladolid station, he headed by car to the archaeological zone of Ek Balam, where around 1 p.m. he supervised the progress of the Program for the Improvement of Archaeological Zones (Promeza) with INAH officials and staff.
When he finished supervising the works, AMLO returned to the Valladolid station, where he boarded the Maya Train again and headed to Cancún.
At the end of April, President López Obrador made a similar visit to verify the progress of the Maya Train in the state.
