00:00We have even studied this, and we are very interested.
00:13She put a tax on the automotive industry, and little by little, she reduced that tax
00:21on the automotive industry in Brazil.
00:24I'm not saying that we are going to copy this, because there are different conditions, but
00:28that's what she did.
00:33So a tax to what was being imported, and also to the Brazilian industry, and as she went
00:40down with the taxes, it will be a higher efficiency in development, in science, and investment,
00:47and also the purchase of parts, like in Mercosur, an integral program that allows for 2002 and
00:552017 to go over 75% of car production in Brazil, a higher efficiency, and also more investigations
01:08and development in this industry.
01:10Very interesting.
01:13So what we want is to strengthen the industry here in Mexico.
01:17I was putting as an example the other day, it's not only Mexico, let's not say that Mexico
01:24is not only the half of what it produces is exported, and the other half stays in Mexico.
01:29Maybe we export a little bit more, but we are exporting a lot of vehicles, especially
01:36from Asia, and it's nothing in particular against any Asian country, but it turns out
01:44that there are vehicles that are sold a lot in Mexico, and are not produced in Mexico.
01:55And those are not from national market, and they are not exported anyway.
02:00So we want to strengthen the automotive industry, not regarding the taxes, but regarding how
02:07much are we importing, and how to do that the majority of vehicles that are bought in
02:12Mexico are made in Mexico.
02:16In the face of this international situation that we are facing, but it's all part of the
02:22plan Mexico that we designed six months ago.
02:27And today, it's important for the national economy, especially for the production.
02:34I was reading yesterday on an article on the Forbes magazine, saying that we were using
02:40a lot of programs that exist in Mexico, linked with the commercial treaty with the United
02:47States, where we don't pay added value tax to what we are produced to send to the U.S.,
02:58which is the IMEX program.
03:02So they were saying that this was abused a lot, and that it had affected the manufacturing
03:08industry.
03:09So we are going over all these, so we are going over all these programs.
03:13That's why the program that we are going to present tomorrow, that it will be only
03:19related with the tariffs that the United States may impose, which we already have some, and
03:26we have decided to wait to see what they are going to present, and then we are going to
03:30continue talking with the United States.
03:32There is a good communication.
03:36So it's an integral program for the strengthening of the national economy.
03:40That has to do also with this.
03:45Not in any country in the world people are building what we are building here, the amount
03:49of trains, the amount of airports, of ports, and all the program to promote the manufacture
03:59in our people.
04:09Regarding legitimacy of the reforms, there is no doubt.
04:16The consultation has over 80 percent.
04:21What are the values of the market and international restrictions?
