...target of the Cabinet shuffle, for instance, was Minister of the Presidency Fernando Berrocal Soto, whose reported role in winning government loans for a brother-in-law drew angry mutterings from other hard-pressed businessmen. Shortly before the resignations, Costa Rica asked for a two-week extension on an Aug. 15 deadline to comply with belt-tightening reforms requested by the International Monetary Fund.
