Quintana Roo’s Major Projects on Track for Completion

Chetumal, Mexico — With two years remaining in the current state administration, Artemio Santos Santos, the official responsible for monitoring major investment projects announced for the state, particularly in southern Quintana Roo, has asserted there is sufficient time to complete the planned works, even if the governor is not the one to cut the inaugural ribbon.

Santos, the Coordinator for Project Follow-up, stated that his team is actively tracking major investment projects "because it is not just a matter of signing agreements but of providing support so they have a logical and agile process to meet the stipulated timelines."

"These two years remaining for this government are enough to complete the announced works. The inaugural ribbon-cutting does not necessarily have to happen in this period because a statesmanlike and visionary leader works for the future, even if they do not cut the inaugural ribbon for the project," he insisted.

Continued Appeal for Private Investment

Santos Santos affirmed that Quintana Roo continues to be attractive for private investment, a point he said is demonstrated by the investment announced for Mahahual by the Royal Caribbean Group.

He highlighted a promising future not only for nautical tourism but also for low-density, high-spending tourism, which he described as what the area requires.

Furthermore, he considered the development hub, the Yuum Kaax commercial market, and the industrial park with a fiscalized precinct to represent a significant opportunity to restore the promised prominence for Chetumal.

"But we must not forget that Mahahual is also part of the Othón P. Blanco municipality, and if all the development from the coast, commercial, and industrial sectors is combined, there will be an opportunity to begin international trade," Santos concluded.
