The president of the National Hotel and Restaurant Association, Asonahores, has described the fiscal reform package presented by the National Council of Business (CONEP) as little more than “tax mathematics”. He said that CONEP’s position does not represent the tourism sector’s point of view. Asonahores’ position is that the fiscal reform project presented by CONEP is not the result of a consensus and does not take into consideration important agreements reached during talks regarding the tourism sector. Asonahores president Enrique Eduardo de Marchena presented the association’s position in a written document. De Marchena said that the tourism sector would take their position directly to the government, Congress and the political sectors, as well as to other economic sectors. He stated that tourism needs to be treated as an exporting sector in the fiscal reform package.
