00:06Today we are seeing that there can be a repercussion in Colombia, but more opportunities than negative issues.
00:15Colombia is part of a system that has allowed to grow its exportations,
00:19but we also have products that have a comparative advantage in more than 136 positions arancelarias
00:26that could enter the United States and complement the production within the United States
00:31that could stop from China and Mexico, as mentioned the President Trump.
00:35Additionally, we have been building, in conjunction with ProColombia,
00:39the possibility of 800 new suppliers that today buy China and Mexico
00:43and that can buy Colombian products.
00:46We also have, in this context, the possibility of continuing to build diversification,
00:51continue to deepen agreements for our employees to have more markets to export.
00:57Additionally, we have to work with the employees to generate innovation and productivity
01:01through our political development policy,
01:04which is made from every region with productive chains,
01:07where all the employees can participate.
01:13We see that there are opportunities and Colombia has to be prepared
01:17to be able to take advantage of the companies,
01:20as well as to develop the companies and the company,
01:23the sector public, the private sector,
01:25the actions that allow us to generate diversification
01:27and generate more sales in international sales.

01:42with clothes, resin, cosmetics,
01:45products, pharmaceuticals,
01:46there are a number important number of products that Colombia produce
01:49with advantage revelative,

02:00we are focusing on the commercial agreements
02:02for more markets for our employees.

02:06in the homologation of 27 products in 7 markets,
02:10also for more markets for our products.

02:24as well as we are working on generating
02:26that balance between the control and the efficiency
02:29that is needed for the exportation,
02:31reducing the barriers that have the employees
02:33to export,
02:35and additionally,
02:36working on productivity and innovation
02:38with our productive development policy.
02:44Today we have great opportunities through tourism
02:47and through the new benefits
02:48that the government of the President Santos
02:51has generated.
02:52The tax reform has brought new opportunities
02:54to the employees
02:55to make investments in the post-conflicts areas.
02:58It also extends the policy
03:00that has been made of tourist benefits
03:02for 20 years.
03:03That means that we can develop,
03:06through product products and tourism,
03:09these regions
03:10and there are opportunities
03:11for all the Colombians.
