    REGIÓN DE MAGALLANES Y LA ANTÁRTICA CHILENA 2020 OBRAS PÚBLICAS P A R A E L D E S A R R O L L O GOBIERNO DECHILE MINISTERIO DE OBRAS PÚBLICAS Este documento corresponde a un extracto del libro: “CHILE 2020. Obras Públicas para el Desarrollo”, cuya versión digital está disponible en la siguiente dirección: www.mop.cl/2020 Prólogo de la Presidenta de la República En los últimos 20 años, Chile ha caminado a paso firme hacia el desarro- llo. La democracia chilena ha sabido combinar certeramente políticas de crecimiento económico con políticas de inclusión social, lo que ha signifi- cado un enorme progreso para el país y para todos sus habitantes. Y, pre- cisamente, uno de los sectores que más se ha desarrollado en estas dos décadas son las obras públicas. El trabajo serio y la moderna visión que hemos impreso a este esfuerzo han significado que el país haya vivido la más grande revolución en infraestructura en toda su historia. Basta mencionar sólo un par de ejemplos: en agua potable rural, el país invertía $ 2.230 millones en 1994, mientras que para 2008 la inversión alcanzó $34.960 millones, es decir, un aumento superior al 1.500%. En embalses, mientras en el período 1970-1990 se embalsaron 40 millones de metros cúbicos de agua, en el período 1990-2011 se embalsarán 860 millones de metros cúbicos, esto es, 21 veces más de agua embalsada. Cifras igualmente impresionantes se aprecian en la red de caminos básicos y carre- teras, que se extiende en miles de kilómetros por el país, o en las obras portuarias y aeroportuarias que nos conectan con el mundo.
