Slow Acapulco recovery after hurricane fans fears over livelihoods

IndiaTimes Saturday, 25 November 2023
Hurricane Otis devastated Acapulco, causing billions of dollars in damage and killing at least 50 people. Efforts to repair the damage have been slow, endangering the December tourist season, which is crucial for Acapulco's economy. President Lopez Obrador has launched a $3.4 billion recovery plan, but local businesses fear that only 50% of hotels will be operational by December. The city's airport is not expected to resume international flights until next year. Trash cleanup efforts are also struggling, with outlying neighborhoods experiencing a buildup of rotting garbage.
