Capistrano Gonzalez said there is a possibility, given the adversity of the global economic outlook that in 2012 more than a thousand workers works in those same conditions.
He said that so far there are no companies in Matamoros who have stopped their production lines, “by contrast, are increasing their manufacturing because Tamaulipas offers a quality workforce and the unions are offering pearls of the virgin to hold the number jobs that are required, although it will be difficult to recover lost 22 000 jobs between 2008 and 2009”
