Without consulting the indigenous peoples of the mountains of Guerrero state, the Mexican government granted the British company Hochschild mining claims for 50 years. The settlers, who learned via the Internet that their towns were given away for the extraction of gold and silver, sued for their right to consultation and information. Also, the politician Porfirio Muñoz Ledo insists that society should be consulted on energy reform. Martha Elena Ramírez hosts Voz Pública from Mexico City.
