2000 to be declared Year for Development of Frontier Provinces

Year 2000 could be the Year for the Development of the Frontier. The National Senate passed the bill to this end, and it only needs to be converted into law by the Executive Branch. The bill requires that government institutions give priority to infrastructure works in frontier provinces in order to reduce poverty. It establishes the creation for the creation of development platforms to reduce the exodus of frontier residents to cities.
