I am in favor of opening up closed sectors of the economy to a wider market. We must allow foreigners to participate in our economic development, but only to a certain extent. We can allow them to own the land on which they will build factories, or to set up tourist establishments, but these tourism facilities should not encroach on our marine resources. But we must have full control over our natural resources so that we can pursue economic development and eliminate poverty. We can allow foreigners to own residential land but not agricultural, mineral nor forest lands. In the case of agricultural lands, we could allow joint ventures.
