1. (C) During a meeting with Vice Minister of Defense Jorge
Eastman on December 1, DCM raised the need for an adequate
budget for military justice reform. Eastman said he had been
speaking with Military Penal Justice director Puentes on the
matter. The GOC believed this was a high priority and thus
had decided to allocate additional funds to the reform
program next year, up to triple the current budget.


2. (C) Reftel had reported Puentes' concern over his limited
budget to implement an institutional overhaul of the military
penal justice system.
