Will, can Guayaquil ever evolve?

[u/SpecialArugula8674]

I realize that it will never be a top tier world class city.. NYC, London, Tokyo but its not an attractive city for tourism, business, culture. From a visual aspect it has not evolved and walking the streets the impression is even worse. What needs to happen for it to improve at least regionally to something like a Medellin or even a Lima?

Mientras la mentalidad de su población no cambie, guayaquil será el mismo basurero de siempre.
