President refers to himself as a "workaholic"

President Hipolito Mejía said yesterday that he never tires of work, and that he suffers from a sickness known as "workaholicism." The Chief Executive said that he could work effortlessly 18 hours a day, without tiring because he has 30 years practice. According to a report in El Siglo, Mejía said he could handle the "little chores" of the Presidency, which are a lot easier than agricultural work. "Anyone who tries to keep up with me, will loose," said the President.
