It's official: "Security Alerts" about Baja Norte will be not be tolerated! OMG
http://www.el-mexicano.com.mx/noticias/estatal/2010/01/13/38...
For all of us who wondered out loud why the UT and others don't report crime- now we know why.
"In an effort to reverse the poor image of Baja California, Tijuana particularly with respect to security, the Secretaria de Turismo del Estado
(SECUR) has prepared the implementation of two new strategies: To move directly against anyone who generates alerts and to begin a political campaign
with the help of the Secretaria de Relaciones Exteriores(SER).
...in 2009 there was an investment of more than 60 million pesos from cooperative agreements between the Council of the Mexican Tourism Board (MTB),
the state government and the private sector participation to achieve this goal.
In order to enhance media presence in southern California, these groups have been approached:
California Automobile Association (AAA)
Newport Beach Sailing Association
The Editorial board of the Orange County Register
The San Diego Union Tribune
ABC and NBC of San Diego "
This post heavily edited until "Security Threat" is defined...

My, my how his story has changed in two years:
| Quote: | “Whatever it takes, it’ll be done” to keep tourists safe, said Oscar Escobedo Carignan, Baja’s new secretary of tourism.
“I don’t want to downplay what happened,” Carignan said. “We take it seriously. And we’re making every effort to control it.” |

And I thought I could get away from all those "gringo's" by coming down here.. thought "fear" might keep all the iPhones and the rest back up in the
North...
I had just posted we were thinking of extending our stay, as there were not so many "gringo's"

Christianaction.org. OK. It is becoming abundantly clear that if we allow ourselves to follow and better yet believe in this stuff, we are complicit
in what certain factions would rejoice about. The inexorable plunge toward Armageddon.
The US had better wake up soon to understand the idea that life as we have known it is being hijacked by religious fundamentalists on both sides. The
world deserves better.

Relax Bajahowodd, this thread is just about Mexico wanting more tourism. Maybe a tasering from Elinvest will chill you out?
