MINCETUR issued an update signed by Minister of Trade Juan Carlos Mathews Salazar detailing that the ministry “concludes the appointment of Mr. Eduardo Alfonso Sevilla Echevarría, in the position of General Director of the General Directorate of Casino Games and Slot Machines, under the Vice Ministry of Tourism of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism.”
