“ García focused on improving the quality of drinking water, installing sewers, and boosting local tourism through beaches.[5][6][7] She also indicated that she planned to develop agriculture and the fishing industry in the region.”
(From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigitte_Garc%C3%ADa )

This is so tragic. She was young and focussing on positive change by the sound of it. A very troubled country but that’s drugs for you.
