Intag Newspaper - Ecuador Not too long ago, Minister of Foreign Relations Patricio Zuquilanda unveiled the uniform he expected members of Ecuador’s ambassadors to don for formal diplomatic affairs: an 18th century outfit with gold braids and brass buttons topped by a two- (as opposed to three-) cornered hat adorned with plumes. When the press and the diplomatic corps greeted the design with unkind remarks and belly laughs, Minister Zuquilanda dropped the idea, stating in wounded tones that his intention had been simply to “elevate” the prestige of the nation’s ambassadors in the eyes of the world. Now Zuquilanda has come up with a new idea for “elevating” the prestige of the Ministry of Foreign Relations: he’s bought himself a new stretch limousine, an excellent way to spend tax payers’ money in these times of crisis when fully 25 per cent of all Ecuadorians have been expelled by the motherland. www.intagnewspaper.org /IN34_QB.html   (768 words)
