Coari was a small township of about 22,000 people in 1990, and has since seen a threefold increase in its population to 67,000.
Coari, where gas from the Urucu processing plant is stored, is now known as the prostitution centre of the Solimoes region.
A glaring example is Coari itself, where promises of power supplies have not materialised while money given by Petrobras for compensation allegedly ended up with local politicians and was not distributed to the needy population.
Coari and Manaus, the capital of Amazonas, are separated by 368 kilometers, which means about a 26-hour trip by riverboat.
In 1976, with federal authorization, Radio Coari began to transmit through tropical wavelengths, thereby having the capacity to reach all of the distant rural areas of the Prelacy.
