After more than twenty years in office, he was replaced by odontologist and ex pole-vaulter Juan Carlos Ramírez in January 2013.[4] He was re-elected in December 2013, but the Olympic Committee of El Salvador did not recognise the result.[5] The acknowledgement of the World Athletics (WA) before IAAF arrive on 2017.[6] In 2018 during the General Assembly of Federations affiliated with the Olympic Committee of El Salvador (COES) held on March 24, the Athletics Federation was recognized again.[7]
