Rodolfo López Negrete now is general director of the National Tourism Promotion Council (known abroad as The Mexican Tourism Board). Under the previous administration, the tourism minister herself held that title. While the appointment has won general approval within the private sector, disappointment has been expressed — according to “Excelsior” columnist Carlos Velázquez — by the replacement of Eduardo Chaíllo by Cecilia Cruz Urquiza, formerly sales director at the Toluca Fiesta Americana. Toluca is the capital of Mexico State where Enrique Peña Nieto served as governor before becoming president. Chaíllo had been with the Tourism Board for many years and is highly regarded in the industry.
