  1. Pobre desempeño de
    la actividad turística en MÉXICO.
    En el segundo trimestre de 2014 la actividad
    turística de México aumentó el 1 %
    respecto al mismo período del año pasado, informó el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía/ INEGI.
    En febrero del año pasado la Secretaria de Turismo del gobierno de México, Claudia Ruiz Massieu, en un comunicado desde la FITUR en Madrid, se comprometió a que al final del sexenio el sector turismo crecerá un punto del producto interno bruto (PIB), con lo que pasará de 8.4 a 9.4 por ciento a lo largo del sexenio, que superará los 110 mil millones, que se esperan del aumento de la actividad comercial directa y indirecta del turismo.
    Para poder realizar este objetivo, el aumento en los próximos 4 años (hasta 2018) tendríá que ser “astronómico”. Poco probable
    en vista de los acontecimientos recientes.

    1. We cater to English speakers so a loose translation is that Mexico’s crime in murders and kidnappings are killing tourism. And that is a true statement and an image problem for Mexico. But there is also a fact, the United States has more crime than any other country on earth, yet the American people go out every day to work, eat, shop, entertainment, etc and return home without once taking a moment to think that they just survived another day in the worlds most crime stricken country. Mexico has a huge problem, that isn’t a secret, it’s a problem from narco and government, that is not a secret either. Yet at the end of the day all these reports only indicate 2% of land in Mexico is dangerous, so there is no reason not to explore the 98% of Mexico that is amazing. People still visit the Grand Canyon each year without worrying about the crime in South Central LA. ;-)
