In the accelerated globalization processes there are tendencies that present new opportunities and challenges regarding exterior policy in order for the population to reach wellbeing, assured the Governor of the State of Jalisco, Jorge Aristóteles Sandoval Díaz.

“In Jalisco, since the beginning of our administration, we have placed wellbeing as a fundamental axis for the Government actions", he stated when participating in the First Government Panel of the XXV Meeting of Ambassadors and Consuls, in the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Relations.

“To look for points in common that allow us to confront in a better way these challenges of the modern world is the strategy that we have established in Jalisco, because we are sure that in the cooperation between individuals, strength can be achieved".

The Governor reckoned the international meetings carried out in Jalisco during the first year of his administration, like "Mexico, Business Summit", which generated in the state investments for more than 500 million dollars and the actions performed outside the country to strengthen the structure of las Casas Jalisco, like the one located in Chicago, which received the non profit status. He pointed out that those actions contribute to the study of the new social phenomenon, which is the returning immigration. It is estimated, he said, that in between 2005 and 2010, at least 1.4 million Mexicans returned to the country. To understand that phenomenon will allow us to take the necessary actions to convert it into a generator of economic development of the state.

"We are convinced that there are advantages in the state so that the international community puts Jalisco in their agenda". Among them, he cited the central project of the Creative Digital City, which will be the first cluster of creative cultural and industrial economies of Mexico, and which will place the entity at the same level of cities such as Montreal, in Canada and London, in the U.K., where similar organisms operate.

He also talked about the actions carried out by his Government to guarantee that Jalisco continues being the giant food producer of the country, which represents not only a global challenge but is also a key factor so that Mexico is able to achieve food security. And he asked for the support of Mexican diplomats for the denomination of the place of origin of the tequila.

Sandoval Díaz also announce that on March, the state will be the host of the International Food Security Seminary, which is one of the international events that will be celebrated in the state during 2014.

A little before, the Secretary of Foreign Relations, José Antonio Meade, announce that next week, Jalisco will be hosting the Parliamentary Meeting of the Asia-Pacific Region.

“The creative city in which Guadalajara has transformed itself, the spaces of competitive advantage that the state of Jalisco has, make many people think that they could reproduce the type of ecosystem that gave way to Silicon Valley in the United States", expressed the head of the Ministry of Foreign Relations when speaking to the Jaliscan Governor.

During his stay in Mexico City, the governor of Jaliso had private meetings with the ambassador of Mexico in the United States, Eduardo Medina Mora; with the ambassador of Mexico in Germany, Patricia Espinoza; with Francisco Suárez Dávila, ambassaador of Mexico in Canada; with Julián Ventura Valero, ambassador of Mexico in China, and with Lorena Larios, adjunct director of global themes of the Ministry of Foreign Relations.

THIS IS HOW HE SAID IT:

“The value of the agricultural production of the state surpassed 27 billion pesos and the one of livestock production reached 67 billion pesos. Today there is still a lot of room for growth if we manage to link the field of technology to achieve an ordered and sustainable development".
