Exposición que presenta el Gobernador a la Cámara Provincial

Abstract

The image contains a news item about the presentation presented by the Governor to the Provincial Chamber where he mentions that the short time has not allowed him to acquire all the necessary knowledge to fully fulfill his obligations. It highlights that Bogotá, being the capital of the Republic and the busiest, faces a greater administrative burden than other provinces. This situation prevents the Governor from focusing on necessary improvements due to the constant demand for attention to requests and documentation. It proposes organizing the Government as a Secretariat of State with several sections and assistant heads for a more effective administration. In addition, the usefulness of assigning salaries to political leaders is highlighted, the need to improve primary education, the importance of communication routes, the situation of indigenous reservations, and the relevance of institutions such as the Savings Bank, the Hospital of Charity and the House of Refuge. The ineffectiveness of vaccination campaigns is also mentioned and a monopoly in the honey trade that harms consumers is criticized. News published in El Constitucional de Cundinamarca.
