An Update on Security, Migration, and U.S. Assistance November 2015
An Update on Security, Migration, and U.S. Assistance By Adam Isacson, Senior Associate for Regional Security; Maureen Meyer, Senior Associate for Mexico and Migrant Rights; and Hannah Smith, Program Assistant November 2015 Key Findings migration crackdown has been changes in how migrants are traveling. With decreased possibilities of boarding the train in Chiapas, migrants and smugglers are now relying on different and dangerous routes and modes of transportation, including by foot, vehicle, and boat. These routes expose migrants to new vulnerabilities while simultaneously isolating them from the network of shelters established along traditional routes. Raids and operations to prevent migrants from riding atop cargo trains, known collectively as La Bestia, have been the most visible and aggressive enforcement efforts under the Southern Border Program. Migration authorities have blocked migrants from boarding trains, pulled migrants off of trains, and raided establishments that migrants are known to frequent, detaining thousands. The train operations have prompted concerns about excessive use-of-force and other abuses by the authorities involved. U.S. assistance to help Mexico secure its southern border region has increased, though there is limited transparency regarding dollar values, recipient units, equipment, and training. Additionally, some of the U.S.-donated equipme has seen little use and was reported to be ill-suited for the terrain in this region. For example, U.S.-donated observation towers serve little purpose at the densely forested Mexico-Guatemala border. U.S.-donated biometric data equipment was also observed to be in disuse or only used sporadically. The Southern Border Program brought an increase in mobile checkpoints, and new customs facilities have opened since its launch. -

TESINA QUE PARA OBTENER EL TÍTULO DE LICENCIADO EN NEGOCIOS INTERNACIONALES PRESENTA: AMAURI VIEIRA OROZCO ASESOR: LIC. EN R. I. MARY CRUZ GÓMEZ CORTES CUAUTITLÁN IZCALLI, ESTADO DE MÉXICO. DICIEMBRE DE 2018 RESUMEN. Desde la época de la Conquista en el siglo XVI, el Istmo de Tehuantepec pasó a ser una zona de interés para los españoles debido a su posición geográfica y su estrechez, sin embargo, se dieron por mejores opciones Panamá y Nicaragua, más adelante en el siglo XIX Estados Unidos de Norteamérica puso su atención en la región del Istmo, ambicionando lo mismo que los españoles y que después de la guerra contra México quiso aprovechar como moneda de cambio para que existiese la paz, en contraste ese convenio que detallaba el libre tránsito americano nunca tuvo ratificación en su senado y por ende falta de validez, años más tarde aparecieron personajes que reclamaban tener la posesión de la región como José Garay un ex funcionario mexicano que tenía la concesión para poder construir el tan anhelado paso interoceánico, sin embargo por el poco presupuesto mexicano para desarrollarlo decide ofrecerlo a compañías americanas, que se darían a conocer en 1907 cuando Porfirio Díaz desarrolla las vías ferrocarrileras e inaugura el paso por el Istmo de Tehuantepec. Ya en el siglo XXI México ha decidió retomar un proyecto que ha tenido distintos nombres, necesaria es la infraestructura ya que representa progreso y desarrollo no sin antes conocer la región Istmeña y sus características, sociales, culturales y económicas, así como lo que la implementación de las Zonas Económicas Especiales representa para su evolución. -

Fourth Quarter and 2020 Annual RESULTS
Fourth Quarter and 2020 Annual RESULTS Mexico City, January 26th, 2021 Grupo México, S.A.B. de C.V. (“Grupo México” “GMéxico” - BMV: GMEXICOB) Just as w e have been doing since the beginning of the pandemic, Grupo M éxico will continue to operate its Three Divisions with the corresponding measures to safeguard its employees’ health, by applying safe distance measures, using facemasks, and following all the health standards set in place by the local authorities of the countries in which we operate. Grupo Mexico’s industrial activities generate minimum risks as most of them are performed outdoors, and by one person or by a small number of highly qualified collaborators. Accrued revenues during 2020 totaled US$10.91 billion—a record figure in Grupo México’s history—2.1% higher than in 2019 and 22.1% higher in 4Q20 compared to 4Q19. The Mining Division’s revenues totaled US$8.57 billion in 2020, 7.5% higher than in 2019, and 35.5% higher in 4Q20 vs 4Q19, due to higher volumes produced—Copper (+1%), Molybdenum (+12.5%), and Silver (+10%)— in addition to a favorable environment in the prices of Copper (+2.9%), Silver (+27.6%), and Gold (+27.1%), In the Transportation Division, revenues dropped 12.7% during 2020, totaling US$2.15 billion due to reduced volumes caused by the pandemic. The Infrastructure Division achieved accrued net revenues of US$528 million—a 9.0% decrease in the year due to an adjustment in the daily rates in PEMSA and the effects on Construction and Highways that resulted from the health contingency. -
Proyectos De Ferrocarril En México
FICHA FS SECTOR MÉXICO Proyectos de ferrocarril en México A. CIFRAS CLAVE México se sitúa en el puesto 54.º de 141 países en cuanto a la calidad de su infraestructura, según el ranking del Foro Económico Mundial en 2019. Sin embargo, la situación de las diferentes áreas de infraestructura es muy desigual. Así, los buenos datos en cuanto a competitividad vial (7), donde se han realizado importantes inversiones en los últimos años, contrastan con los de los servicios ferroviarios, por los que México se situaría en el puesto 58.º del citado ranking. Por tanto, es necesario que el país siga invirtiendo en infraestructura para mejorar su competitividad. El sistema ferroviario mexicano está compuesto por una extensa y eficiente red de transporte de carga que está, además, integrada con la de EE. UU., y un casi inexistente sistema de transporte de pasajeros. Hay que tener en cuenta que el sistema ferroviario de carga se privatizó entre los años 1996 y 1998, de forma que actualmente FERROMEX, FERROSUR de Grupo México y Kansas City Southern de México (antes Transportación Ferroviaria Mexicana) acaparan más del 90 % del transporte. En cuanto al transporte de pasajeros, este se circunscribe a los proyectos de metro en CDMX y Monterrey, algunos trenes ligeros (Toluca-CDMX, Guadalajara), el tren suburbano que circula entre CDMX y Estado de México y el tren turístico del Chepe en Chihuahua. El proyecto de transporte de pasajeros más ambicioso presentado en los últimos años fue el tren rápido Querétaro-CDMX que se adjudicó en 2014 aunque después fue cancelado. A pesar del poco desarrollo del sistema de transporte de pasajeros por ferrocarril en México, la actual administración ha incluido dos como proyectos prioritarios, el Tren Maya y el Corredor Transístmico que ya están en proceso de construcción. -
Rail Harmonization in Mexico and North America: Implications for Agriculture
RAIL HARMONIZATION IN MEXICO AND NORTH AMERICA: IMPLICATIONS FOR AGRICULTURE Barry E. Prentice,Wade Derkson and Arnold Maltz INTRODUCTION The North American railway landscape has changed significantly and irreversibly in the last few years. A "NAFTA railroad" has emerged with the acquisition of the Illinois Central (IC) by Canadian National (CN) and the subsequent marketing agreement with the Kansas City Southern (KCS). The largest Canadian railway, itself privatized only a few years ago, now offers single-line access to the Mexican market with the privatized Transportacion Ferroviario Mexicano (TFM). From a shipper's perspective, the new map of North America increasingly resembles a hyperlinked web page, "with the shipper able to start anywhere and end up in places he or she never imagined." (Possehl, 1998). Few North American shippers would have imagined a railway system that could include the much- maligned Mexican rail links. However, the once disparate parts of the North American rail network have re-emerged under private control with the promise of integrating NAFTA trade, and in particular, the trade of agricultural products. This paper examines the implications of the Mexican rail concessions for NAFTA trade of agricultural products. Specifically the paper focuses on whether or not privatization, particularly of the rail links in the Northeast (TFM) and the Pacific North (Ferromex), are likely to support overland movement of agricultural products within the three NAFTA signatories. The effect of rail privatization on freight rates is especially important because the geographic flow patterns of low-valued bulky agricultural commodities such as grains are sensitive to transport and logistics costs. -
