Ladies and gentlemen, we shared with you in this way the projection of the instructional audiovisual material. The following are the words of the senior manager of the national registry, Mrs. Lourdes González Pereira. Good morning everyone. His Excellency Mr. President of the Republic, Mr. Santiago Peña Palacios. Your Excellency, Mr. President of the Supreme Court of Justice, Professor Dr. Alberto Martínez Simón, Your Excellencies, pardon me, Ministers of the Executive Branch and of the Supreme Court of Justice and other high national authorities who are gracious to join us today, heads of associations of public notaries, especially representatives of your president, Professor Dr. Alberto Martínez Simón, for the permanent support and trust placed in the work team of the unified national registry, whose efforts have been encouraged and strengthened by an institutional vision that is decidedly committed to innovation and services to the citizens. The digital real estate registry cadastre certificate project stems from a profoundly transformative idea: that the public notary formalizing contracts through the authorization of public deeds can obtain, through a single procedure and by digital means, information that until now required the intervention of different areas and processes of a different nature. both cadastral and registry and also carried out through paper. However, turning this idea into a reality involved much more than systems, developments, and technological integrations. There were many hours of work, early mornings, weekends, difficult decisions and challenges that were overcome along the way. To make this possible, it was necessary to develop, adapt and integrate different technological components, including Sigre, which you have just seen, the cadastral registry's entry and exit desk system, the CIEC of the cadastre and the CR of the property registry, in addition to systems and services linked to judicial income. and to the General Secretariat of the Supreme Court of Justice. each of these systems with different technologies, architectures, rules, and processes. None of this would have been possible from a single direction or from a single work team. And I would like to highlight the different teams involved in this project, because they truly deserve to be seen and recognized today. On behalf of the Information and Communications Technology Directorate of the Room, the project was driven by its director, the tireless engineer Mauricio Florentín Oliver, with the direct active participation of excellent technicians such as Hilario Machuca, Magno Ayala, Gustavo Roa, Gustavo Sánchez, in addition to the other members of the technical teams. The integration with the technological services of the Supreme Court of Justice also required the committed work of the DGETC of the Supreme Court of Justice, led by its general director, Mrs. Gonzálic Chamorro, and her great team of collaborators. Also participating were the external teams that accompanied the specialized developments by Conecta SA, Mr. Joaquín Lima and team, and by IT Alianza SA, Ms. Claudia Acosta and team. But this digital certificate was not just a technological project. The construction required the knowledge and experience of those who work daily in the registration and cadastral processes. And in this area I would like to highlight the great work of the brand new Directorate General of Cadastre and Property Registry. Led by its director, Magister Mercedes VZ Vera Ibarra and her team of area directors, Mrs. Luis Moreno and Ana María Samanie. The cadastral registry advisors Alba Venit, Lisa Cáceres, Milner Rivia, as well as Mrs. Tania L from the Registration and Publicity Department of the Property Registry. From the cadastral field, the technical collaborations of the urban and rural areas were equally fundamental, led respectively by the heads Karina Sánchez and Ángela Curdero, along with their respective teams, as well as the GIS administration department of the cadastral directorate in charge of Mr. Anastasio Torres and team. For all these reasons, the launch of this digital certificate represents much more than a new service. It is a new step in the modernization process, integration of the registered cadastre initiated with the implementation of the Single Entry Desk for the registered cadastre on January 14th of this year. This advance demonstrates that when knowledge, technology, and teamwork are combined, it is possible to transform complex projects into concrete solutions for people. Technology made this development possible, but it was these people who made it a reality. This is the main message I want to convey in this launch: that when the different institutional areas, and in the case of the R where so many departments were merged, work in a coordinated manner, it is possible. Thank you very much. Mrs. Lourdes González Pereira, senior manager of the unified institutional registry. Let's get personal because Lordeizo mentions an institutional seal. Let's get personal because Lordeizo mentions very internal, very behind-the-scenes aspects of how things were done all these months. He gave due recognition to all the people who made a difficult and courageous political decision. I understand your difficult, courageous, brave 2026. 100 already fell short. They fell short because we found issues that had to be put on the table, viewed as problems and solved. Let's work together to bring this tool to a level of true transparency, traceability, and monitoring, to highlight the problems that real estate has in order to solve those problems, the solutions that are in the law, that we have, that symbolic small, perhaps from within the home, the beginning of the process, and that we have that entirely electronic process, so that the time that the law gives us is merely referential and we actually arrive on time, as the President of the Supreme Court of Justice, we are at the presentation of the digital real estate registry certificate here in Libertad at the Government Palace. Ladies and gentlemen, the following are the words of His Excellency the President of the Republic, Santiago Béñez. Very, very good morning. Dear friends, I cannot begin these words without first reflecting on the path we have taken . I know that those of us here are grasping the magnitude of what we are experiencing, but many people, especially those watching us through the media, believe it is just another event. It is one more protocol among the many that the different powers of the State have, and yesterday there was a very emotional event here at the López Palace. Sixteen Paraguayan compatriots came, members of the peasant family farming , many of whom fought, and even lost family members in clashes between combatants and law enforcement. And it was a day of celebration. It was a festive day where the National Institute for Rural and Land Development held a real land titling celebration, awarding 16 titles to farmers, and for me it is impossible not to start this because my path, my journey in this project is a journey that began in 2015 when I took over the Ministry of Finance. which previously had the General Directorate of Cadastre as an institution, an institution that I always said was an obscure institution at the bottom of the organizational chart and that was not a priority. And in that desire not to be just another one and in that desire to transcend a very difficult decision that could lead to the departure of a great economist, a great professional from a very important position, the one responsible for deciding what public investment was made in Paraguay, what route, what bridge. He was in charge and I fired him because he exhausted my patience. That Paraguayan book with a profound social content , "The Mystery of Capital," a book written by a Peruvian, Hernando de Soto, which outlines the path that nations take to truly give value to the capital of a nation. And of course there is nothing more important in a country than its people, its human capital, but after the people, the land is a tremendous asset. And that's where he started down that path, and when it was my turn to resign from the Ministry of Finance and I was saying goodbye to embark on a political path, he told me, "Minister Muñoz, I was going to ask you if for some reason you become president of the Republic, please don't name me president of the internal affairs board." So yesterday we can believe in redemption because this is truly the path that was meant for me, and of course for Enrique as well, after having lived through a difficult time at the head of the municipality of Asunción, being hired to be able to do a study of the different models for how to resolve this entanglement and this knot. that was often not visible to everyone, but those of us who really know the path of development of a nation knew that Paraguay would never develop if we did not unblock, if we did not resolve. And from August 15th, and I want to thank the Supreme Court of Justice, the ministers who are very present, Alberto by name, because we put Paraguay first, we made the decision to embrace this project and today this project is a project that is moving forward. So with that brief, off-the- cuff introduction, I wanted to say that I am truly deeply excited about what seems to be the mission of a certificate, but it is a transcendental step in the future of Paraguayans. There are changes that are made thinking about the coming months, there are other changes that we think about for the coming years, but there are others, the most difficult, the most arduous. Those who often tell us, "Don't do it, you're going to fail, it's too difficult." These are the changes that are made thinking about the country and future generations when we take on the commitment to take the bull by the handles, because it was a decision we all made together, and creating the unified national registry was decidedly done with future generations in mind. In Paraguay, our children and grandchildren will inherit it. This was probably one of the most delayed reforms, and we see all the progress that had been made in Paraguay in the last 35 years. This was the one who was always cornered. It 's very difficult. We don't want to fight with the court. Let's not lose power as if it were something permanent that belongs to us. It's the most ephemeral thing there is . The land problem in Paraguay, lucidly denounced by Carlos Pastores, and of course its consequent lack of legal security, dates back at least to the end of the War of the Alliance, which has had enormous consequences for our country. Despite the existence of numerous initiatives presented over the years, we were never able to reach a successful outcome as a country, and thus legal certainty remained pending. Today, however, that reform is a clear reality with the creation of the unified national registry. This shows that it is possible to take the difficult path, the path of the toughest reform, to improve the quality of life of Paraguayans. But we also said at the time of enacting the law that it was only the first big step, but that we were not going to allow a reform of this magnitude to be reduced simply to a legal text with very good intentions, as happened with so many others in the history of our country. We said, we're going to monitor its effective implementation. Today we can affirm with facts that we are doing it because this morning is a historic day for our registry law. Today he finally begins to exercise his duties. In justifying the bill, we pointed out that one of its most significant innovations was the mandatory adoption of a single code intended to definitively unify the various names that the same property received in the land registry, in the registry and in the land registry. That code is not just another administrative piece of information ; it is a small but extraordinary revolution in our legal security. It is the key that allows all cadastral and registry information related to a specific property to be clearly and precisely linked and made available to citizens and public institutions in a summarized and easily accessible way. The digital cadastral registry certificate for movable property is the concrete expression of that interconnection. At one point, in a single public instrument issued by a single institution and in digital format, the owner, the acquirer, the notary or the creditor will find the property identified with its unique code, with its dimensions, limits and surface area, with the current state of its ownership and its restrictions and with the express declaration of whether or not there is overlap with other registered titles. What until now required visiting several offices dependent on different branches of government and reconciling often contradictory information is now resolved in a single document, issued within the deadlines clearly established by law. I'm glad, Alberto, that Rom is taking on the challenge of making those deadlines maximum deadlines and trying to bring this into real time. I want to be precise regarding the scope of this progress. The law of the unified national registry is a law of progressive implementation and this was foreseen by the legislator. What we celebrate today is a milestone in that process, not the culmination. Without unified, refined, and accessible information, none of the law's innovations could have the effects we envisioned. With it, each stage that follows will find the ground prepared. What is being inaugurated is a concrete and verifiable step in the transformation of the cadastral registry reality of our country, from a fragmented, slow and often uncertain reality towards an efficient, safe reality with quick responses for users. To every Paraguayan man and woman listening, I want to say in very simple terms, what do you gain from this reform? They are beginning to materialize today, and they are not minor benefits. A country that cannot certify with reliable accuracy. To set up an institution that absorbs the functions of three scattered departments. Integrating databases that have never communicated with each other and standardizing criteria that have been different for decades constitutes a technical and administrative task of enormous complexity. The fact that the Run is now able to issue its first unique codes and digital certificates is largely due to the extraordinary leadership of its senior manager, Dr. Lourde González, and the work of her team, to whom, as Paraguayans, I express the recognition of the Paraguayan government. My tribute to you, dear Lourdes, is demonstrating once again that Paraguayan women always lead the way. But I also want to ask you to redouble your efforts to make the run stronger and stronger, and to bring it closer to the citizens every day, because there is still much to be done. The road ahead is long. All properties in the country will have to be registered as a prerequisite for their registration. Purging files that date back more than a century. To diagnose with precise evidence the instances of overlapping titles and to train officials, professionals and citizens in the use of the new system. None of these tasks are completed overnight and it would be a mistake to pretend otherwise, but we also know that the direction is set and that the first step has been firmly taken. The law of the unified national registry was conceived as a true State policy developed jointly by the executive and judicial branches and enriched by the legislative branch. And its implementation must continue with that same commitment. Beyond the mandates and political circumstances of each moment, with the issuance of the respected digital real estate cadastre certificate, Paraguay begins to settle a debt of more than a century and a half and takes a concrete step towards a State that responds to its citizens with efficiency, security and speed. That is the state we set out to build, and we will continue in that task of creating a state that provides security to its inhabitants. Because, to recall the words of a great Spanish jurist exiled from the civil war in Mexico, Luis de Cácer Sichés, without legal certainty there is no law, neither good, nor bad, nor of any kind. Dear friends, with this significant event that we celebrate this morning, Paraguayan law takes a firm step towards ensuring its most fundamental mission: to provide legal security to all Paraguayans. Thank you so much. Ladies and gentlemen, these were the words of His Excellency the President of the Republic, Santiago Peña. This concludes the official ceremony for the presentation of the digital real estate registration certificate. Thank you for your attendance. Thank you so much. Good morning. We shared with you the presentation of the digital regional real estate cadastre certificate of the unified national registry. It should be noted that during the event, an audiovisual presentation was also shown explaining how this system would work, detailing each procedure and the steps to follow. He also mentioned the time periods that establish the deadlines. It should be emphasized that this is possible thanks to coordinated work and the commitment of the institutions in charge. It should be noted that the President of the Republic has already fulfilled this agenda. Then I will tell you how the activities of the Comprehensive Early Childhood Care Center called CAPI of San Estanislao are progressing. Later in the afternoon, starting at 4:30 p.m., he also has a meeting scheduled at the Burubicharoga headquarters where he will be meeting with the minister, secretary general and head of the civil cabinet, Javier Jiménez. He also follows his schedule into the evening. A commemorative dinner for the 90th anniversary of the Paraguayan Industrial Union is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. We see then
