Licensees report enormous losses

ECONOMÍA
Confirman náuticos enormes pérdidas
0 22 de junio de 2015 By Carlos Gasca
A month after the beginning of the whale shark season, licensees say they have suffered only losses, first with the late delivery of licenses, then the new Management Plan, and now with the absence of whale sharks. Currently they are waiting for an answer regarding their objections to the Management Plan, and hoping for a resolution, but they are worried about the lack of whale sharks. Last year at this time there were groups of up to seventy, but now they are finding three or four, and no more.
The licensees explained that currently there are no whale sharks in the Blue Water area, and they are only being found in the Green Water area, which favors the licensees from the municipality of Lazaro Cardenas (Holbox & Chiquila). One of the licensees said, "We don't know why that it, but it is worrying. When we go out and don't find any whale sharks, tourists want refunds. Now that the whale sharks are far away, we have to travel between 30 and 40 miles, while it is closer for the licensees of Holbox" He said that after spending much money to get set up and taking the risks to go out, they must return half of the fees.
One of the licensees commented that in the end, this activity just creates business for the operators and recruiters, while the boat owner or captain gets the smallest part. He said that travel agents offer the tours for about $200 dollars, but the licensees only receive $80-$100 dollars. "When we take a tour out, we have considered that there will be an income of about 10,000 pesos, but this money needs to cover the cost of gas, permits, paying the captain and crew, and in the end, we get the crumbs," he said. He added that as a result of this problem (lack of whale sharks), they have had 50% cancellations this month, but they expect improvement in the month of July. -

EDUCACIÓN
Duplicarán inscripciones para cursos de inglés22 de junio de 2015 By Carlos GascaThis year the "Volunquest 'Association will seek to double the number of children enrolled for their English summer camp, which begins July 17.

For this third edition, they are expecting to enroll 300 children. She said there is no cost to parents and the only requirement is that the children were registered in a public primary school during 2014-2015. The camp is for children attending grade school and for this reason enrollment is programmed by grades.

Recognition of seafarers
Reconocimiento a navegantes [+] Ver mas
In this month, men of the sea (marinos) are given special recognition for their contribution to the development of this community and this essay about their historical contribution was provided by the family of Lima Zuno. Throughout the past century and a half, the local people have worked to create and develop their community, together with the seamen whose boats brought supplies and took the products of the residents to markets. Where at first they had fished with nets, gradually there was diversification to commercial and touristic activities in recent decades.
As is known, on August 17, 1850 the government of Yucatan decreed this community as the town of Dolores, later Isla Mujeres. The first person to construct solid buildings was a Spanish sailor (navegante) Fermín Mundaca de Marecheaga. A few years later he built the historic garden that bears his name today, in an attempt to impress a young island woman know as La Trigueña.
(Mundaca purchased ~40% of the island in 1858. "La Trigueña", Martiniana (Prisca) Gomez Pantoja, was born in 1862. Mundaca left the isle & died ~1880, when she was 18 & he was 55.)
The small community of less than fifty families increased in population during the Caste War as a result of people fleeing the battles in the Zona Maya. There is no historical indications that the rebel Maya came to the island, but according to historians, they came to Puerto Juarez.
With World War II, maritime trade began to intensify in Isla Mujeres, as a port supplying US vessels patrolling the Caribbean Sea. For this purpose, a large cistern was installed on the islet La Carbonera, next to El Farito lighthouse, offshore from Sac Bajo.
Arrival of the Lima Family
The arrival early in the second half of the last century of José de Jesús Lima Gutiérrez, influential politician and tourism visionary, who passed away some years ago (2009, at age 97), to live on the island, represents the moment that economic activity began to diversify. He worked and organized to promote the regattas, to build the federal road between Valladolid and Puerto Juarez, and to introduce infrastructure for health, education, electricity, and roads to the island. (LINK to article about development of tourism on the isle, including history of Sr. Lima & the first airlines, hotels, & ferries. LINK to photo-essay of Isla boats.)
In this historical essay about the local sailors and institutions, provided by Don Enrique Lima Zuno, the family recognized the fishermen, lanchero boatmen, navigators of the high seas, and the Naval commanders and admirals. "It is very satisfying to honor the seafarers of Isla Mujeres, who for more than 100 years have served the community, lacking connection to land, who lived on products extracted from the sea. Before there was general navigation along the coast of Quintana Roo, the seamen brought supplies to the coastal population and took away agricultural products like peppers and copra, and products from the sea like fish, lobsters, and turtles to markets in Yucatan, Cuba, Belize, Key West, Tampa, and Grand Cayman. The company of Sr Hilario Scompurdis operated cargo ships including "Gran Day" and "Adams" which transported seafood products abroad, including large numbers of turtles to the United States on a regular basis."

Here are some photos of "Adams" transporting turtles. (Photos from Recuerdos de Isla Mujeres on Facebook):
In historical documents found in the National Archives, credit is also given to the contributions of President Lázaro Cárdenas del Río and to General Juan Andrés Almazán, Secretary of Public Works, who created the project: Circuito del Golfo y del Caribe between México, Cuba and the United States. To promote this project, Sr. Lima Gutierrez brought his family to Isla Mujeres and made his home here.
Adolfo Ruiz Cortines (1952-1958) (his term in office) was behind the program "La Marcha al Mar" to construct the road between Valladolid and Puerto Juarez, a proposal of Sr Lima, with Carlos Lazo, Secretary of Labor/Works (Obras). The following buildings were also constructed: the kindergarten "Gabriela Mistral", the Center for Social Welfare, the hospital, the weather station, and the middle school "Benito Juarez".
Regattas
"In those days, no one wanted to come to Isla Mujeres to work," confessed Sr. Lima. For that reason he sought to have the Navy operate the Centro de Salud (hospital) for many years, and he also persuaded the commander and officers of the VII Naval Zone (sic) to teach at the Middle School, and he himself taught, as did his children, Jose Salvador and Esteban.
During the administration of Adolfo Lopez Mateos (1958-1964), the road to Puerto Juarez was completed and the island gained infrastructure of electricity, for tourism, education, and a hospital to improve the lives of the seafarers (marinos) of the island.
During these time the hotel Zazil-ha opened (1964), affiliated with the chain "Balsa-Sheraton" and authorized by the Secretary of the Navy (SEMAR). To promote the location, with the National Council of Tourism, the international regatta "Al Sol" was created in 1964 from New Orleans to Isla Mujeres, putting Isla Mujeres on the international scene as a destination for yachting and beaches. In the essay, Sr. Lima Gutierrez said the fishing village was very friendly, respectable, and pleasant, when snorkeling and diving began at the parks of Garrafon, Los Manchones, and Isla Contoy, which has been designated as a bird refuge since 1961. He recalled that the first international regatta was won by the sailboat "Isla Mujeres", captained by architect Felix Mier y Teran, with naval officer Francisco Javier Gómez Estrada as navigator.
For more than 20 years, the Seventh Naval Zone (sic..Isla's current Naval base is Quinta Zona Naval which is Fifth LINK) provided electric power for the public until 1961 when the CFE, Federal Electrical Commission came to the isle, when construction was begun on Zizil Ha, Hotel Martinez, and the Posada del Mar. Sr Lima donated land for the electrical plants (plantas de luz) on the isle.
The article ends in the middle of a sentence about the governor of the territory of Quintana Roo, Javier Rojo Gomez. He was Governor in 1969, when Isla Mujeres & Puerto Juarez got their water systems, and concrete piers replaced wooden ones in Puerto Juarez and Puerto Morales. That year the road was built between Puerto Juarez and Puerto Sam.
First place in number of teen pregnancies
Primer lugar en embarazos en adolescentes[+] Ver mas
Brazos Abiertos International (BAI-Open Arms) is conducting a campaign about teen pregnancy prevention in Isla Mujeres. They report that Quintana Roo has the highest teen pregnancy rate in the country. This is their seventh annual campaign in Isla Mujere and is titled "Annual Campaign for Education and Prevention of HIV and Teen Pregnancy in Isla Mujeres 2015". They are carrying out this work in all the municipalities of the state.
The campaign began here on Wednesday with educational and informational activities about prevention of teen pregnancy and of sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV. The BAI manager said, "It is important to reinforce and support activities such as those carried out by BAI Foundation to promote healthy relationships and awareness in young people". Municipal officials expressed appreciation and recognition for this effort and worked in cooperation with the foundation.
The three day campaign included a Sex Education workshop at the middle school to reduce teen pregnancies and promote healthy relationships. There was a conference at the Naval auditorium titled "Strategies and Empowerment to Reduce Teen Pregnancy" In the town square there was a campaign held titled "Counseling and Rapid HIV Screening" directed at the workers in bars and restaurants. Saturday there was a Health Fair in the La Gloria park that included medical consultations, glucose and cholesterol testing, and testing for HIV.
Carlos Antonio Cabrera May is recognized as a leader in preventative actions including various activities taking place as an ongoing plan.
Resident does work himself

An unidentified resident has been cleaning the weeds from the edge of the roadside of the coastal road at the southern part of the isle. This paper published an article about the need for the municipal government to prune this area. Young people who walk thru the area, Dolores Cruz, Juan Tuz and Eliodoro González said that this type of example makes us each reflect about our own willingness to contribute something to the society in which we live. Dolores Cruz said, "In my case, it helps me to look at myself and about what is my part that I should give to society."
It is noted that the municipal authority could give more attention to clearing the other side of the road, and that the area could benefit from more street lights and more policing.
