The great promise of the 277 billion
Claudia Sheinbaum sat down again with the National Investment Council. The objective: give oxygen to the famous Plan México. The one that has been in the discourse for months but whose concrete fruits are still difficult to see.
“We had a meeting with the National Investment Council to follow up on Plan Mexico,” reported the president.
The figure they repeat is astronomical: 277 billion dollars. Distributed in almost two thousand projects. The official goal is ambitious: bring investment above 25% of GDP, create a million and a half jobs and have half of what is purchased be national.
Certainty, the government’s favorite word
Sheinbaum once again brought out his star argument to attract capital: legal and economic certainty. It invites the private sector to put money where the public is already investing, especially in infrastructure.
All this is part of that other plan with a long name: the Investment Plan in Infrastructure for Development with Well-being 2026-2030. More meetings, more coordination, more commitments to join forces.
It sounds good on paper. It always sounds good. The question that remains floating in the room is the same as always: when are words translated into works that people can touch? History suggests it is best to maintain informed skepticism.
