The federal president mentioned that the Mayan Train workers are the best in the world for the titanic work they carry out in record time to complete the work.

On his weekend tour, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador personally monitors the progress of the Mayan Train in the southern region of Mexico.

In a recent update on social media, López Obrador shared a video capturing the tireless efforts of numerous workers in the construction of the Mayan Train.

The president expressed his admiration for the skill and dedication of Mexican construction workers, highlighting their excellent skill and asking rhetorically: “Aren’t they the best in the world?” His recognition of his work highlights the quality and commitment of these professionals in one of the most ambitious projects in the country.
