today is a day that all of the foreigners that Live here around Mulege can relay be ashamed of them selves. I think 2 showed up for the Governors
inauguration of the new bank. you all made so much noise about how much you needed a bank here and some people listened and promised you they would
get it done. and then no one decided that it was worth while to support the people that worked hard to keep there promise. the Governor and other
people that were there were very disappointed and I was disgusted by what happened. shame on you, I don't think the bank will last very long with this
kind of support.

Just curiuos why the Governor showed up for the opening of a bank? I can't imagine Arnold showing up for the opening of a Wells Fargo. Also, isn't
the bank a for-profit business? I'm a bit confused why people should feel guilty for not attending the ceremony. Please enlighten me as it must be a
cultural difference.

because of all the squawking that the foreign residents people made to the Governor and others about there not being a bank here and having to drive
to Santa Rosalia. He made a promise to them after the flood that he would find a way to get it done, and he did. and that is no easy task sense he has
no power over the banks.

the governor did make that promise and DID come thru...
he did an outstanding job!!!
for me it's just the wrong company...
CitiBank in the USA is associated with BanaMEX
Comerce Bank which most of the old retired people used was bought up by CitiBank...
Their retirement deposits go to CItiBank now
Bruce is a good asset to have in Mulege...
typing is secondary

A couple of years ago President Fox was set to open the Pemax fuel dock at Puerto Escondido. The death of the Pope canceled the deal. We were
disapointed; we drove down there. These kind of events in Loreto are a lot of fun. Seems almost everything has a big ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Sometimes the ceremonies and celebrations predate the actual work by months.
I agree with Bruce; bad form to have such poor representaion by the foreign community in what the local people think is important. And not good
politics for our interests in general.

kiwi. I guess some of us are protective of Bruce's typing & spelling. It's not the first time that newbies like you take a "swack" at him. I've
never found it necessary to ask that question of anyone. Any chance your a teacher by profession? Can't blame you for it then. It's "inbread" if
that's the case. Otherwise it takes all kinds that make this board run. Just think about being kind. Does it really matter in the "whole scheme of
things?"

Kiwi, I guess all of us are not as smart as you, but for some reason we all seen to understand each other. Maybe that's because we are of an older
generation where we knew what hard times really meath

I think Bruce is righ, if people were asking the governor to put in a bank, and he does it, why not at least show up and thank the guy. No no cultural
difference, I did a yahoo search and typed in "governor attends grand opening" and wow
