Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto said on Tuesday that his government will present its energy reform proposal this week, an overhaul aimed at luring more private capital to the oil, gas and electricity sectors to boost flagging output, Reuters reported. The energy reform will be presented to the Congress and is a key plank of a wider economic overhaul designed to boost growth in Latin America's No. two economy to 6 percent a year, create jobs and lower energy costs. The government's energy reform bill, likely to be discussed on Wednesday, is expected to open electricity generation to more private participation, while keeping both transmission and distribution under state control. -- SPA 00:20 LOCAL TIME 21:20 GMT تغريد
