"Demo" at City Hall
The people, the public might!
went with this slogan and a few political demands it yesterday in the City Hall Simões Filho, where should a new law of the environmental area to be adopted. But
now first beginning:
Here in the area, in the Vale do Itamboatá, people do not know much about their rights. You do not know that the Town Council is a public place, they vote their politicians but know nothing about their own political participation possibilities.
be unacceptable deficiencies in the quality of life. Although with anger, but without major complaints to local offices, or just those elected officials.
So it is possible that in the neighboring village of Palmares in many pick Eaters for missing a month the water. The residents had their water for showering, cleaning, toilet, etc. in rinse of buckets to carry his home. For cooking water was purchased in the supermarket ... this must be just imagine ... and no one has done anything ... out of ignorance or fear? Here, in Terra Mirim
there are always courses on environmental law, led by a lawyer and biologist aide. These courses are many young people and adults from the region in order to inform itself about their rights as citizens. The aim of this course is that the people of the Vale do Itamboatá know about their rights and are "responsible" citizens who question and give suggestions for improvements can Gesetzesvorschlaege.
So also currently at the "Lei orgánico". A basic law, which decides about the quality of life of people and methods of environmental protection. Terra Mirim was beautiful made early set with the responsible politicians on the subject in contact, but received no clear answer. Another shortcoming of the political system is that people get most politicians never see because they frequently send invitations to someone of their own employees rather than taking sides. In this way, a peevish, Kafkaesque distance between the representatives of the people and the caste people themselves
Terra Mirim wanted to examine the bill before it was adopted and read, but you wanted the document does not give up power. Democracy is different. This Friday it was then but finally here and it was called together a meeting for Monday, which was also Aide was present.
At this meeting, the law has been checked very carefully and it turned out that the majority is out copies of a law of Salvador, and has many gaps that allow the uncomfortable interpretations. To prevent that the draft is approved without conditions, were in Terra Mirim (one day prior to the planned adoption laws!) discussed suggestions for improvements that they wanted to present to the Environment Agency.
Yesterday, on Tuesday, it had come: the day of adoption of the new law. In order to enforce Aenderungsideen, the inhabitants of Terra Mirim, and people have come together from the Vale. Max and I (Dilan) yesterday afternoon, with young Leaflets to Palmares driven to mobilize some of the young.
At 17:30 we went to the school bus to Simões Filho, with about 40 people! Was taken in the cultural center, where posters were crafted, the demands were: dialogue with the politicians, clean water, security and more.
clock at 18.00 there was a meeting with the Minister for the Environment, at the Edson and Camila (Palmares), Mhinana attended, Alba Maria and Daniela (Terra Mirim). There was talk about the changes that were accepted by 90%. A great success for the Vale Itamboatá and democracy! Nevertheless, we are
then all still went to City Hall for the official meeting of the Stadtraete, where, however, out that you do not take into posters with, and could not take any photos. We failed in doing some things to do to us should be removed again afterwards. Bruno, who had the camera in hand, was led by some police officers out to delete the photos. Presence of mind he has the chip taken out of the camera, leaving only private photos were seen - one can imagine the look perplex the police when they got uA beach and wildlife photos of the face.
total was the atmosphere in the town hall very strange. It reminded a bit of an American courtroom. In the room there were only men, who were supported by a staff member every ten minutes of new drinks, including even if the old were not empty. The attitude of the politicians was very strange and unprofessional. Some talked, some left the room and others were on the phone all the time. Overall, it was
very entertaining, better than the cinema or theater (!), And our goal is that law must change to work, so people can draw strength from it and also the knowledge that you can make anything as burgesses.
