Former Peruvian Education Minister Jorge Marticorena failed to approve regulations for a law guaranteeing a dignified pension for teachers before leaving office. Despite having responsibility for the regulations during his tenure as a congressman for Ica and head of the Ministry of Education (MINEDU), he left the task unfinished. This now places the onus on the government of Keiko Fujimori and current Minister Chang to implement the long-awaited pension reform. The delayed regulations represent a significant challenge for the new administration, as fulfilling this demand is crucial to addressing concerns within the Peruvian teaching profession. The lack of action raises questions regarding political priorities and the transition of responsibilities between administrations. Ultimately, the implementation of the "dignified pension" now rests with Fujimori’s government. This situation highlights a potential political hurdle for the current administration regarding a key issue for Peruvian teachers.
