Tourism Minister Felix Jimenez has announced that he will be staying in his post as Minister, satisfied with the support received from the president of the Hotels and Restaurants Association (ASONAHORES), Luis Lopez. Jimenez is quoted in Hoy as saying that he was not surprised at the support he received from the president of Asonahores. The Asonahores board never authorized the publication of a statement in his support, however. Jimenez says that he is not perfect enough for everyone to like him. Earlier this month he had threatened to resign if Asonahores did not support him. Jimenez has been accused of using his influence as Minister of Tourism to obtain benefits for his own business investments as a leading realtor and new hotel investor.
