Peru PM takes part in meetings with Ucayali region mayors

14:50 | Pucallpa (Ucayali region), May. 4.

Prime Minister Cesar Villanueva on Friday participated in a working roundtable held between Housing, Construction, and Sanitation Ministry officials and rainforest Ucayali region mayors, within the framework of Muni-Executive Power meeting.

The gathering's main aim was to promote dialogue with local authorities, as well as identify and prioritize projects in those sectors requiring attention.

In addition, the Cabinet chief joined the working roundtable between recently-sworn-in Production Minister Raul Perez-Reyes and mayors.


It must be noted President Martin Vizcarra arrived in the rainforest region this morning —joined by Villanueva and his Cabinet— to take part in this new Muni-Executive Power meeting.   

These events are intended to foster economic and social dynamism —in Peruvian regions— as well as territorial dialogue, and intergovernmental cooperation.


Previously, the Head of State oversaw the construction works of a new hospital.
