The president of the Young Entrepreneurs Association (ANJE), Ricardo Bonetti speculates that the reason the government is resisting calls to sign an agreement with the International Monetary Fund is because it wants to have a free hand for spending into the 2010 congressional and municipal elections. Legislators and city government officials who are elected in 2010 will stay in the job for six years, according to a constitutional amendment that is being promoted in Congress.
Bonetti says that while high-ranking economic government officials (Governor of the Central Bank Hector Valdez Albizu and Economy Minister Temistocles Montas) favor an agreement, the President has dismissed it, as reported in Hoy. Bonetti made his comments on the D'Agenda TV program hosted by Hector Herrera Cabral on Telesistema, Channel 11.
