After the violence in Bagua on June 5 it is good to read a few promising Peru news items:

• Controversial laws of the jungle may be revoked soon. (Spanish)
• Peruvian Prime Minister Yehude Simon indicated he may quit after calm is fully restored.

This does not mean all is well in the world of politics in Peru, it’s only words at this point. But it’s hope for a beginning to the end of Alan Garcia’s sell-out-Peru, money-at-all-cost policies.
