Am I To Big For This Pony

Apology of our (anti) democracy *


protest do not know why these ignorant cholos and understand laws, moreover, if a batch of illiterate How can they know what they're protesting against? So we take to the police, shot and fill them with gas, we burn and then we say that we are sorry, you have to take action thereon, to be making inquiries and are being forgotten. We're fine!

If we chose to vote, won with 60 percent of who voted, but we say that we won with 60 percent of the votes of all Panamanians, as they do not understand that ... And now they want to co-govern? They are not postulated nor invested a penny in campaign politics, but now they want us to consider what they think, and had the opportunity to think and propose in front of the urn, which total only thing that is serving a one vote man, woman, one vote, criminals do not vote and fewer juvenile offenders, so they can not come with a lot of pod to tell us what we must do, as far so good!

Megaprojects are good, bring development and bring wealth and employment. We give them work and up they climbed the minimum wage, $ 50. Do you know what is fifty dollars these days?, And we do not come with it that everything has gone up, $ 50 is enough, the thing is that it be spent on booze and partying. Those cholos that besides illiterate, are drunk with 50 dollars can solve, buy food, clothing, pay for electricity, rent and to save! But because they are gross and drunk, get drunk as brutes and spend the money, although that far so good!

We were in the megaprojects. We promised that Panama would be in the first world and we need a financial tower of 20 million, not 50 million I say 100 million, which is, 200 million. We need a meter 1000 million. 'Mr. President, have you estimated 1 billion?, I was on my agenda 7 billion', well, fine, 10000 million for the metro. And we need an airport, but we are thinking of another one in Chiriqui, but do not forget to Darién province is forgotten, and development must be carried further, but first you have to do a road of 500 million. We'll see how to get that money, like we always ask the World Bank or the Yankees, the thing is that we doing!

"They do you think? Such development costs. After that we bringing the first world are going to complain about taxes in Chile are paid 14 percent and the United States or say. What is the difference between five or seven percent?, Just because they went up $ 50 of pay, pay that. With all these complaints we doing!

A will pay 100 old folks say there are some that we have not paid, but we will already be fixing that within the next two or three years, as universal grants, which some day I will play . You must raise these constitutional social projects and that they lack water, should be restructured IDAAN will call a company that knows that and we already have in the starting five billion to fix, but if you want a better service will also have to pay more, however you also have to raise the water to a constitutional level. Let's make a referendum and ask if they want to take this opportunity to re-election. Remember that if you vote NO, water goodbye, goodbye universal fellowship, bye 100 for 70, because that is going to take all that. Not seem to believe me when I tell them we doing!

To those leftists who oppose mining, cholos illiterate those who oppose the development should be asked if the PRD is paying them to protest. We have evidence that if they pay, we were told that a PRD's believe in change. Therefore we do not we pay, do come the Italian and Korean mining! We're fine! -----

Does Putting Coke On Your Gum Get You High

LA INFANCIA EN AMAZONAS*: Una breve aproximación

The situation of children in the Amazon is to put it coldly, sorry. The figures reveal that little is done by the new generations, even in the conventionally accepted aspects such as education and health.

First, to 2007 in the Amazon had fewer children aged 0 to 5 years in 1993, and only 17.8% more than in 1981. If children in 1981 0 to 5 years accounted for 18.6% of the regional population in 2007 accounted for 14.8%.

The population does not reproduce and therefore in the long run, the army of labor required for any policy development will be limited. Worse, nutritional training, educational and emotional development of children is apparently efficient.

Official data tell us that chronic malnutrition declined in the period 2000 to 2009. While the start of that period was reported that 36% of children under 5 suffered from chronic malnutrition, in 2009 the figure was 22.2%; ie 1 in 5 children have chronic malnutrition in the Amazon. However, if we say that in 2008 33.7% (1 in 3) of the regional population is caloric deficit, the number of undernourished Chronic perhaps is not the official show. Furthermore, we can imagine that data not chronic malnutrition is even greater, also a serious problem in childhood.

Education is another problem for children. For the year 2009, enrolled in primary education were 22 580 children 0 to 5 years, ie less than 40% coverage. This is average of 4% coverage of children under 3 years and 76.1% for children 3 to 5 years. 95% of children under 3 years old enrolled, and 36% of children 3 to 5 years enrolled in the system were not attending school. In addition 38.8% system was not attending school.

what about quality? To give an idea what you are enrolled in the schooling system does have serious limitations in infrastructure, equipment and salaries to educational developers (also the school system these limitations is presented in a slightly lesser extent). For example in 2009 in the Amazon had 562 dedicated to promoting community education PRONOEI, SET, PIET and PIETBAF, earning a "tip" without any job benefit or even work putting their resources to meet the needs of furniture and equipment their students. The number of promoters representing 45.9% of total teachers dedicated to providing education in classrooms at the initial level, assisting an average of 16 children per developer. This result is not credible, or ghost or registration is not counted all the promoters, because if you visit the premises of these programs actually barely average 10 children.

The quality of education involves teaching, equipment, infrastructure and education program. What do you do for it? Do children with malnutrition and studying in these conditions are? We think not.

Finally, what is the family atmosphere and community for children? Year reported more than 550 complaints of domestic violence. That is, every 2 days there are at least 3 shares of severe violence (but not reported, are taken as normal within the family), not counting unreported. It is known that domestic violence is present relegating children to the last priority for many households in the region.

What things can be raised to implement and discuss these problems?

Tasks that would take is participatory and effective debate to find alternatives for action. These interventions to systematize a strategic focus should be based on early childhood education with complementary actions in health and family atmosphere. Outline the following points should be taken into account in the debate:

  • should first be doing a baseline study of the situation of children (education, health, family environment) in the region, which is followed by a participatory curriculum according to the regional and national education plan.
  • mass Develop training for all entry-level staff in the region in education (in rural areas should include nutrition and Welfare).
  • Develop programs in child health care in all health posts and centers in the region.
  • expand, improve and create (where there is) the initial level educational services, to expand preschool coverage to 95% of children 3 to 5 years in the region.
  • Managing a budget so as to substantially improve the salaries of teachers and community promoters with a decent minimum.
  • Develop food and nutrition assistance at all sites early education in the region.
  • Promote the acquisition of furniture, equipment and supplies for training, and ensure adequate infrastructure.

The idea of \u200b\u200bthese points is to intervene to include most children in the educational system and from there to manage the improvement in health / nutrition and social assistance in the family. Where does the budget? For if the private sector (mainly mining) in the region seems to begin to develop, it should appeal to a condition of investment is the introduction of taxes on earnings just before the.
