Speaking before a meeting of the Honduran National Business Council (COHEP) last night, President Porfirio Lobo emphasized the importance of reducing poverty in Honduras. The fight against poverty "cannot wait anymore," said Mr. Lobo. "I propose that we voluntarily and decisively confront the future with a vision of the country based on a national plan focused on eliminating the poverty that affects two of every three families [in Honduras]." Mr. Lobo's speech was delivered as part of the swearing-in ceremony for COHEP's new president, Santiago Ruiz. (3/13/10) (photo of Porfirio Lobo courtesy Internet)
