President Correa Considered Ecuador an Inequitable Nation

President Correa Considered Ecuador an Inequitable Nation

Quito, Sep 11 (Prensa Latina) President of Ecuador, Rafael Correa, affirmed today that Ecuador is still an extremely unequal nation and two percent of the big families own 90 percent of the companies.
During a debate with the media in the province of Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas, located in the area of the humid tropics of Ecuador, the leader stated "We are good people who work for a country with equity."

For that reason, pointed the head of state, the economic measures implemented by the government seeks to close the gap and give greater social justice.

Correa insisted that the same people as usual are against the social proposals and denounced that the protests against the Heritage Bill and Goodwill were the pretext for trying to destabilize Ecuador.
