The government appointed Armando Barria Oyarzun as the new provincial presidential delegate of Chiloé. As reported by the Ministry of the Interior this Thursday, Barría will take office on Friday, December 16.
The Executive appointed Barría one month after the resignation of the previous provincial delegate of Chiloé, Mariela Nunez. The government’s delay generated criticism from local authorities, such as the president of the Association of Municipalities of Chiloé, Javiera Yanez.
