Figure 4

Cartoon modified from that which was published in Quito´s “El Comercio” newspaper on 12 July, 2006 in which the director of the Instituto Geofísico is handed an order from the assistant of the Tungurahua governor. The order states that the IG director must abstain from reporting on Tungurahua´s eruptive activity and that the governor will give the reports in such a way that tourism will not suffer.
