Tegucigalpa, Honduras.
Carlos Eduardo Reina, pre-presidential candidate of New Free Current, to become president of Honduras, will revolutionize the education system, create a cooperative structure, force those who have to pay more taxes and make ethics and morality prevail to curb corruption, which annually drains more than L50 billion annually.
What are your top five government priorities?
Childhood. Where is the future of Honduras? It is in two million children who are not well educated. It opens a child’s cognitive ability to be successful in life from two to five years.
Their mind is like a dry sponge that absorbs everything, unfortunately these millions of children live in homes where their parents have very little education, so there are no mental challenges.

Your profile Carlos Eduardo Reina
50 years City of birth He was born on October 14, 1970. He is the son of the renowned politico-liberal Jorge Arturo Reina and Alicia García López. He is the nephew of the late President Carlos Roberto Reina (1994-1998). He is the father of four children. |
We propose the creation of thousands of early childhood education centers that aim to develop this child, where, in addition to giving them food, medicine and vaccines, they are given the most important thing: the tool of reason. and thought, which is what takes us away from the animal kingdom. This early education will create a generation of children who will be coming to school with superior cognitive abilities that will allow for educational reform.
At the same time as the mother who can’t do anything because she has to take care of children, we will incorporate her into a cooperative, and in this cooperative she will have two functions: half of her time will be spent studying, learning a vocational or technical profession. and the other half will spend it working for the cooperative that guarantees him a salary.
Why should the Honduran people vote for you?
Because change is a need today as it had not existed before, because we are the New Current, which presents not only Carlos Eduardo Reina, presents people of the highest quality, such as councilors, candidates for mayor, candidates for deputies, who none is tainted by corruption, none has passed through the public place and left a trail of corruption.
How do you define these elections?
They are so relevant that there is so much concern, as change is emerging in the primary election, and those who do not want change in all parties would want the election not to be the weapon people use to change what he doesn’t like it, which is why everyone’s participation is so important; mass participation in the primary process will ensure change. If participation is low, those who always win will probably win, but if participation is high there will be changes.
How is it considered, right, left or center? Why?
Democratic left, we want to build democratic socialism in our country.
What mechanisms did you use to select your nominees, mayoral candidates, and deputies?
Our government is going to focus on the person, so I bring in a designated candidate who is a master of Garifuna origin. With it we will promote educational policy and the inclusion of indigenous peoples, such as black peoples and indigenous peoples.
On the other hand we take Fannie Oliva, niece of Bertha Oliva and also human rights defender. Human rights are not selective, they have a character that is enshrined in the Charter of Human Rights.
We believe that in Honduras we cannot aspire to democracy if we still have people segregated by race, religion, political thought and sexuality.
The third nominee is Adriana Arita. He works for the Social Security, he is not a public figure, but he is a leader of the medical union. With it we will reform the health system, we will leave a system aimed at curing, to build a health system aimed at prevention: it is cheaper to prevent than to cure the sick.
Why should they trust you in the face of discrediting the political class?
I am not one of those who is discredited, I have not been a civil servant. I have my letter clean and because I hold what I say with facts. It’s not just about being honest, it’s also about signing an ethical commitment. I signed a code of ethics that commits me to having a very different attitude and conduct in the Presidency of the republic than they hold today. We’re not going to walk around with twenty armored cars and a hundred bodyguards, I don’t need them, I have no enemies. We will take care of the people’s money by prioritizing the needs, creating something fundamental, which is state planning.
What would you say to the young man who has no plans to vote?
Morazán left them a task, and the task is not to leave the country abandoned. In his will, Morazán told them: “success to the youth, which is the call to give life to this country that I leave with feeling …”. I invite you to follow Morazán’s example of dying before leaving the country abandoned.
How will the economy recover?
Economic growth is not distributed among the people, growth is privatized in a few hands and losses are socialized. We need to review the tax pyramid, no modern country has been able to develop without paying taxes properly. It is not possible that in Honduras the owners of 70% of the wealth pay only 6% of the taxes, and the poorest, who have only 10% of the wealth, pay 46%. This needs to be invested in a tax transformation plan. On the other hand, transparency, management due to state money. 50 billion is stolen a year, how much can we produce or pave miles of roads, and this generates work and public investment.
Geopolitically where will your government aim?
For the whole world, we are not seeing a goal, we are seeing every market on the planet. For the cooperatives we will build to sell their products they must be marketed without a political eye.
