The southern Peruvian region of Cuzco, whose like named hub was the imperial capital of the Inca, defied the central government Tuesday by enacting an ordinance expanding the legal cultivation of coca, the raw material of cocaine.
Regional President Carlos Cuaresma, member of a party that is part of the governing coalition in Lima, formalized the measure before coca farmers in Cuzco`s Tupac Amaru square, whose name evokes both the last indigenous Inca ruler and his great-grandson, Tupac Amaru II, leader of a 17th-century revolt against the Spanish.
He said that, on the contrary, the measure "seeks to organize the unorganized." Toledo`s prime minister, Carlos Ferrero, said that the measure could increase the legal cultivation of coca from its current 9,000 hectares (22,500 acres) to the 36,000 hectares (90,000 acres) needed for legitimate consumption.
