Criticism to Peru
President Continues
New criticism to
Peruvian President Alan
Garcia's excessive
outstandingness, faced
with the catastrophe
caused by an earthquake,
augurs on Monday a
weakening of his image
to the population.
"The excessive
presidential
outstandingness has not
improved Alan Garcica's
image, but has
deteriorated it, and has
intensified the
impression that this is
an extremely inefficient
government" to aid the
victims, Historian
Nelson Manrique said.
He said Garcia, instead
of accepting humbly the
country's obvious
limitations, has even
reached the point where
he accused the Spanish
collaborators that were
demanding security
measures, after being
amid a shooting.
After citing the
president's mistakes at
the area affected by the
earthquake on August 15,
Manrique said "the
Peruvian president is
interested in his own
image above all, and
that will be a hindrance
to organize an effective
aid to the localities
devastated by the
earthquake."
Analyst Carlos Reyna
asserted that the
president and his
ministerial cabinet "are
recovering from the
earthquake with a
shine-off image" and
"disorder is the most
used word in journalism
to refer to his
performance, faced with
the emergency."
"The government
underestimated the
magnitude of the damage
to its reputation to the
public opinion and
journalists. To any
serious question by the
media, they answer with
imprudent haughtiness
that could make them pay
dearly in political
terms," he said
