Dear Director,
The regrettable decision by the mayor of Zapallar not to hold the May 21 ceremony in honor of the heroes of the Navy and the naval glories of Chile.
His reasons are understandable, but Zapallar is not a poor municipality, and on the other hand, failing to honor Prat and the sailors who gave their lives for the homeland directly impacts national identity and cohesion. Prat and the crew of the Esmeralda unite Chile.
I hope other mayors do not follow this unfortunate and misguided decision.
