Rural infrastructure & logistics

Three, transportation — the costs that fall on the transport side are extremely expensive.

Mr. President, I conclude by saying that it is no use saying you love the Amazon in a suit and tie at international conferences and denying roads, denying the basics to those who live in that piece of land, which is Brazilian national territory.

Those who had the chance to act and did not do so now try to explain the inexplicable.

We do not want rhetorical explanations; we want results, asphalt on the ground and hope for our people of Rondônia, of Amazonas and of the North of Brazil.

This will mean, Mr. President, more efficient logistics: it is the food that arrives safely, it is the medication that arrives at the right time to aid those who need it most.

Therefore, advocating for the paving of BR-319 is a message of life and hope. Thank you very much.

I went to Marajá do Seno, one of the poorest towns there is.

And the residents warned, if you just pave the road out of town, I can get my production out, because half the year I can't.
