The Villa Tunari-San Ignacio de Moxos road in Bolivia will be built as planned, despite opposition by some groups. Bolivia's president, Evo Morales, has stated that the project will go ahead, criticising opponents of the work. According to Morales the Tipnis indigenous community is instrumental to opposition and non-governmental organisations. However the Tipnis community has responded that the president is being confrontational. Morales has said that there are finances in place for the project and criticises environmental groups for using the indigenous community to prevent the work from going ahead. The Tipnis community has announced a march, with the support of the Indigenous Villages Confederation of Bolivia.
