(Baja Governor announces stimulus campaign)…The goal is to create 49,000 new jobs.
Governor Jose Guadalupe Osuna Millan announced the plan Sunday.
Under the unprecedented public works program, the state would invest
almost $474 million on projects, large and small. They include
reconstructing the agricultural canal system in rural Mexicali, that was
destroyed by the 2010 earthquake. Constructing a dam in Tecate and
completing a convention center for Tijuana and Rosarito. About $94
million would be used to create about 10,000 new jobs by stimulating the
growth of small and medium sized businesses in the state. Other jobs
would be created through private investment. Under the plan, the jobs
would be created during 2012.
