Monetary remittances into Mexico

The individual monetary remittances into Mexico from abroad dropped 1.69% during the first nine months of the year in comparison with the similar period during 2009. Those remittances, almost all from the United States, have reached 16 billion 156 million dollars this year, according to figures from the Bank of Mexico. After petroleum production, remittances are Mexico’s second largest source of income. Mexico is the largest recipient of remittances in Latin America. Over 11.8 million Mexicans live in the United States.

Triple execution at border crossing sows panic

Early Tuesday afternoon, a vehicle with three men inside was parked near the Mexican customs facility just a few yards from the dividing line between the U.S. and Mexico at the border crossing of El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua. Then, other vehicles arrived, and their occupants, said to be younger men, surrounded the parked vehicle and opened fire. The three men in the parked vehicle were all killed; shell casings from assault rifles and pistols were later found at the scene. The three victims were reportedly Mexican federal police. Their killers disappeared without a trace. The multiple execution caused panic in the area and the temporary closing of all traffic across the border at that crossing.

Shortly after the attack, the police radio frequency was used by unknown persons to warn that this is “a proof of what Juarez isâ€
