Costa Rica’s President Laura Fernández has appointed David Rodríguez Suárez as the new director of Prodhab, the country’s housing finance agency. Rodríguez previously served as an advisor to former congressman Leslye Bojorges. He also held the position of national treasurer for the Partido Unidad Social Cristiana (PUSC), a major political party. The appointment has raised questions regarding potential political influence within the agency responsible for housing finance. Critics suggest the selection reflects a pattern of patronage within the current administration. Prodhab plays a crucial role in providing affordable housing solutions for Costa Rican citizens. The government has not yet commented on the concerns raised regarding the appointment’s impartiality.
