16JAN25 -⚡(CHL NewsFlash if yah need a good deal on a Chyyynnah generator:) 🚢🏗🏭- 'Thousands of new generators stranded on Guayaquil docks-

"Thousands of electric generators are piled on Guayaquil docks and in warehouses, many of them unclaimed, according to business organizations. “There could be 20,000 there, some of them already paid for, but no one wants them,” says Fabricio Cornejo, spokesman for the Guayaquil Chamber of Commerce. “There was a rush of orders in late November and early December and then the power blackouts ended.”

Cornejo believes almost a third of the generators have been paid for, fully or in part, but buyers have not made arrangements for delivery. “Even more of a problem, many of the units were delivered from China on spec from distributors who now don’t want to pay for them.” In November the market was overwhelmed by demand for generators but since December 20 demand has collapsed.

According to Cornejo, many of the orders were based on information provided by the national weather service (INAMHI), predicting that drought conditions would continue until March or April. “When Noboa said blackouts would end December 20, we thought he was crazy and believed they would return in late January or February.

Then, of course, the rains came,” he said, adding that generators will not be needed until July or August. “Of course we are personally happy that the situation has improved and the generators are not necessary but the incorrect report we received from INAMHI has cost businesses millions and millions of dollars,” Cornejo said...." -

01JUL25 - SOUTHCOM’s TMPI: Towards Integrated Deterrence in the Americas by Building Maintenance Capacity- #ECUADOR - "Analyzing Ecuador’s foreign policy trajectory over the past two decades is pertinent to illuminating the region’s evolving political and security landscape. During President Rafael Correa’s administration between 2007 and 2017, Ecuador pivoted by severing its military relations with the US.

This comprehensive shift included ordering the closure of the security cooperation office in the US Embassy and honoring but not renewing the lease term for the Manta Air Base, causing the withdrawal of approximately 300 US military personnel stationed there.

However, this period of strained relations was followed by the re-establishment of the Office of Security Cooperation (OSC) in 2018, signaling a potential shift that ultimately materialized with new military cooperation agreements signed with the US in 2023 under President Lasso and ratified in 2024 by President Daniel Noboa. ...

25JUN25 "Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa announced this Thursday the capture of Adolfo Macías Villamar, alias "Fito ," considered the leader of the Los Choneros organized crime group.

"For those who opposed and doubted the need for the Solidarity and Intelligence laws : thanks to those laws, Fito was captured today and is in the hands of the Security Bloc," the president posted on the social network X.

"We have done our part to proceed with Fito's extradition to the United States , and we await your response. Have a good afternoon, Ecuador," Noboa added.

The criminal leader had been on the run for over a year and a half , after escaping from the Guayaquil Regional Prison and hiding his tracks while the country was engulfed in a spiral of violence, culminating in the brief takeover of a television station.

'Fito,' who was serving a 34-year sentence for organized crime, drug trafficking, and murder , escaped on January 7, 2024, as he was about to be transferred to La Roca, a ...
