The mayor of the commune say they feel discriminated against in the new Central Bank's decision. "As we are a small community and we consider changing the house where he was born Arturo Prat for a landscape that has nothing to do with his legacy would have been preferable to put a picture of Iquique, where the greatest hero born lived his quest Ninhue glorious, "said the mayor.
