President Luis Arce likely approved Camacho’s arrest to restore his credibility within his Movement Towards Socialism party. Members accuse him of being weak and sympathising with the right. Prior to his detention, Camacho led the right-wing opposition, calling for nationwide anti-government protests during a dispute over the department’s census. Strikes and demonstrations in Santa Cruz began in November 2022, but were subsiding prior to Camacho’s arrest. A heavier response by security forces will increase casualties and exacerbate the grievances of anti-government groups. The authorities are highly likely to use tear gas to disperse demonstrators. There are likely to be small confrontations with security forces, as well as clashes between rival protest groups. Protesters will congregate around government buildings and engage in acts of vandalism, including setting fires to offices and vehicles. Smaller pro and anti-government demonstrations will also take place in La Paz. Ongoing demonstrations will escalate across the department of Santa Cruz – the country’s wealthiest region – in the coming weeks in response to Camacho’s arrest. The arrest follows Camacho’s failure to testify in an ongoing trial related to the ousting of former President Evo Morales in 2019. Demonstrations resume in Santa Cruz following the arrest of the department’s governor, Luis Fernando Camacho, a prominent opposition leader and former presidential contender.President will target business elites supportive of Camacho through courts and removal of subsidies.President unlikely to push for further arrest of opposition figures due to unpopularity of such moves.Business elites will purposefully limit operations to slow economy in retaliation for Governor Camacho’s detention.I will definitely stay here again.Image Credit: saiko3p / Shutterstock Torchlight Predictions The negative stuff was just minor knitpicky type things and greatly outweighed by all the positives and at a cost of only about $65 a night its practically a steal. Overall though, I really enjoyed my stay. But again, that's just me And lastly no "do not disturb" sign for the door knob which we always use. The resin lounge chairs at the pool were as hard as concrete and not good for my back. I must say though, that they were lax about closing time for the breakfast room so that along with the fact that the breakfast offerings were as extensive as they were makes up for it. I wish they would extent it at least an hour. I mean who wants to get up at the crack of dawn while on vacation, right?. My roommate, however, loved the chair so I guess it was just me. When I leaned back to relax the back went back so far I thought I was going to fall completely backwards out of the chair. ![]() Its supposedly adjustable, but either I was doing it wrong or the levers were broken. I mean, what's up with that? The desk chair was uncomfortable. There was no toilet paper roll holder in the bathroom. I wouldn't even call them complaints really, but more like suggestions for improvements. There was hardly anything to complain about. Once you cross the bridge your a mere two block walk to the beach and boardwalk. And the pièce de résistance was the location. They offered a breakfast with choices like toast, peanut butter and jam, hot or cold cereal, coffee, tea, and juice, fresh fruit and pastry-a more than decent spread. I can't say this about a lot of places I've stayed but this motel is a nice place to hang out at during vacation down time. There was also a sitting area on the second floor that overlooked the pool. The motel had a very nice pool complete with tables, chairs, and chase lounges for stretching out in the sun. We had two comfortable double beds and lots of pillows. It came with a refrigerator and microwave which is a very desirable feature for me and my travel partner as well as free Wifi. ![]() Our room was sufficiently clean and while not huge on space it didn't feel cramped either. I was very pleased with my stay at the Torchlight Inn.
