Both Plan Puebla Panama and CAFTA, like NAFTA before them, would work to solidify borders in the region; what is actually needed is a policy that addresses the gross inequalities that lead 400 Salvadorans a day to depart on a dangerous journey north.
The government admits that most of the growth predicted as a result of CAFTA and Plan Puebla Panama will be in the area of textile assembly factories or maquilas; however, since maquilas are dependent on an extraordinary amount of imports, the net export growth is minimal and the threat of departure is always imminent.
Not only has the public been denied any real input into the development of the plan, which will directly affect thousands of people; they have also received very little information about the specifics of the plan and what it will mean for their lives and the future of Mexico.
