Mohamad Dasuki Pledges Local Development

The elections for the city council, mayor, departmental council, and governor will proceed in an atmosphere where voters are not easily swayed by external advertising or persuasion.

Many voters have already decided who to vote for, and an atmosphere has formed where external advertising or persuasion does not easily sway them.

It was emphasized that instead of just envying the infrastructure of other cities, voters should exercise their right to make Maicao, a commercial city, the best in the region.

Local residents here take great pride in the region's cultural diversity. Maicao boasts a landscape shaped by a mix of diverse ethnicities and cultures.

Visitors are greatly attracted to this vibrant environment. The following section introduces a meeting with a commercial leader who cares for the local community.

Mohamad Dasuki, from a merchant family that settled in the 1960s, has announced his candidacy representing the Maicao region's commerce and industry. He plans to serve as a member of the La Guajira Departmental Assembly from 2012 to 2015.

He comes from a merchant family that settled in Maicao in the 1960s and is currently actively involved as a local businessman.

He decided to run based on the recognition that for the first time in La Guajira's history, a political representative for commerce and industry is needed, aiming to protect the commercial interests of the Special Customs Zone and all of La Guajira.

Candidate Mohamad Dasuki put forward commercial development and regional security as key pledges, stating that job creation is central to social safety.

Alarmed by unemployment being the source of social instability, he agreed to cooperate with gubernatorial candidate Bladimiro Cuello on commercial protection and security.

Early in his candidacy, there were criticisms that his chances were low and that he was being reckless. It was considered unprecedented for the commercial sector to put forward a single candidate.

Dasuki continued his challenge, asserting that he represents the entire commercial sector, not just an individual.

The main objective is to resolve the chronic problems faced by the Guajira region.

This political initiative has garnered strong support from many residents, including indigenous communities. It aims for a political approach that serves the community and manages its problems.

He asserted that campaign members must also possess the same integrity and diligence as the candidate himself.

Currently, the political establishment continues unequal practices that only benefit their supporters while neglecting justice. The leaders of Maicao and La Guajira pay no attention to the suffering of the people.

Local government heads and governors lack efforts to communicate with residents on the ground. Criticism is mounting against these unfair treatments across society.

The issue of basic survival rights faced by marginalized communities, such as indigenous communities, is the most urgent task to be addressed in this election.

Colombia, a global powerhouse in water resources, has immense potential for national utilization. It borders two oceans and possesses abundant rivers like the Magdalena and Amazon.

Abundant water resources and geographical advantages support La Guajira's potential to grow as a hub for national water resource utilization.

Many indigenous people are in environments where they do not receive adequate education.

They lack even basic health services and clean drinking water. A practical support system for the socially vulnerable is urgently needed.

He actively intervened in the lives of local residents to achieve social justice, visiting poor ranches and marginalized areas in Maicao.

He particularly strives to implement true justice based on a sense of belonging and service for those most in need.

These support activities, similar to Shakira's 'Pies Descalzos' Foundation, demonstrate his continuous commitment to the community, regardless of election periods.
