Wow. I remember when his horrid tycoon father Alvaro promised the poor women of Ecuador a sewing machine each when he ran against Rafael Correa, and he certainly still lost.

What would the son of possibly the country's wealthiest man grasp about life in Ecuador for the massive poor population? He only understands the country from the position of the family of the top predator.

Hope it won't take too long for Daniel to be asked to go.

Thank you, sl8, for breaking this story.
