Memory and Story II: Mayor's Management Report Jorge Rodriguez
"Mayor of the Libertador municipality, to cover up their bad management, aims to blame the serious problems capital city of Christopher Columbus and Diego de Lozada. "
Caracas (22/05/2010) .- Press Copei. Angel Cacique popular party general secretary Copei - Caracas, said: "In the gray and ineffective management of the current Mayor of the Libertador Municipality Jorge Rodriguez, is to attribute the serious problems in the capital city of Christopher Columbus and Diego de Lozada, as if they were responsible for the serious problems we suffer
Caracas is one of the most violent cities in Latin America (49 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants , mostly among young people between 15 and 29 years), with higher inflation in the continent (5.2% in the previous month and an estimated annual inflation of more than 29.5%). Where health indicators are on the wane: Diseases such as chickenpox, tuberculosis, yellow fever, sores Evil, HPV, show alarming increases only in the case of Dengue in 2009 had reported a total of 13,670 cases, compared with 26,724 confirmed by the Ministry of Health, in recent days. This increase represents an increase of 100%.
figures can not be positive in the fight against dengue and other diseases, while the Caracas not have a regular water service, reliable, effective collection of garbage and debris, and a frontal attack plan of the authorities in fumigation, the plans fail to preventive and educational reality of these diseases is that go hand deteriorating quality of city life. Said.
Deterioration Metro system, the endless queues, the problems of water, electricity and garbage collection. No responsibility can be the discoverer of America or the founder of the capital. The current authorities can not be alone pending the rearview mirror and attribute the failure of government management of early twentieth century. Have provided the largest amount of revenue in the history of the republic, have had a majority in municipal councils, regional councils and assemblies, and for now trying to blame others for their own mistakes, said Chief Secretary pointed
general
Copei Caracas: "You forget the Mayor Jorge Rodriguez's last three periods in the Libertador Municipality have been under three mayors mismanagement rojito red (Freddy Bernal-two periods, and Juan Barreto, a period-) and Mayor-elect Antonio Ledezma snatched budget and skills to create the district capital and appoint Jacqueline Farías finger). Do as he says them to be a single government, the inefficiencies of government ministries and public institutions, must necessarily attribute it to him
Absence and continuity in urban development plans of the city, the most emblematic Buscaracas: Mayor Bernal announced the project in 2006 with an initial investment of VEB 250 billion and the failure of the municipality of Libertador municipality, the Minister Diosdado announces its completion, at last end the year with a cost increase of over 400%. They have built and expanded the avenues, closed road circuit of Caracas, have not developed major urban renewal plans, the city is dark, dirty, smelly, life in them is expensive and unsafe and we are sure not to blame Columbus is or Diego de Lozada. Copei leader concluded.
Members who make up the assembly must assume that lack legitimacy, no longer represent anyone and therefore do not have to continue to legislate quality.
Members who currently comprise the national assembly were elected at the time with one abstention that around 78%, but cynicism can assume that the fault is not theirs, but of the democratic opposition parties irresponsibly withdrew from the elections of 2005 and enabled with such meager results, representatives of the ruling party takeover of 100% of the national assembly. During the past four years, despite the legitimacy of origin, could argue that were representatives of those few who managed to vote in those elections.
But after last PSUV primaries, in which although noted that it presented an abstention rate of 62%, the important thing is this, but only 23% of the deputies who currently make up the National Assembly return in primary or alternate candidate. This means that the electorate itself Chavista rejection management, while in spite of, those members, nominated again for the national assembly, the results issued realize that 77% of the current MPs will not return to the floor. Recent primary results PSUV, show what was an open secret in their quality as people's representatives. If we add that to the new parliamentary elections (26/09/2010), there is a final decision of the democratic opposition sectors to participate, which obviously would prevent some of the few deputies who passed the filter of election inside the PSUV, achieve return again to the National Assembly.
surprising thing is that despite such strong results, these MPs remain committed to continue to create laws that seriously jeopardizes the future of the country, its uncritical, submissive is explained by the lack of democratic legitimacy both past and present. But it is clear that over 80% of the current National Assembly deputies not to return, therefore must assume that legislative action, people's representative character is seriously eroded by the latest results of the primaries of the PSUV and that sense to wait to be the new parliament, which are the elected representatives to 26/09 next national assembly, to which in its capacity as legitimate representatives of the Venezuelan people, have the task of legislating.
Certainly not the democratic principles and values \u200b\u200bthat drive the current management of the deputies of the National Assembly, but most elementary prudence indicates that delegitimized, which significantly eroded their status as elected representatives, should minimize legislative action and pursue their own administrative functions of the National Assembly.
The misguided economic policies implemented by the national government are to blame for inflation, food shortages and slowing growth. The increase in imports generated more unemployment in the country.
Although the government of Hugo Chavez received in the last eleven years, more than nine billion dollars in revenue, which could become the great lever for economic development-industrial-technological-productive in the country. The waste, corruption and misuse of these revenues become more dependent on us (we import more than 55% of food and industrial supplies we consume), we remain basically an exporter of raw materials (not diversified production and stimulation the process of re-industrialization). The control in the delivery of foreign exchange nerve expropriations, the generation of coercive and controlling legislation of the various economic processes-The crisis in public services (water and electricity), insecurity and impunity to punish those responsible for crimes, etc.. Are largely responsible for the various problems facing the Venezuelan economy and society and the government instead of acknowledging their mistakes, correct and convening a national dialogue. Insists on more expropriations and zero controls and dialogs.
Perhaps the greatest learning that led to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the disintegration of the USSR, is that economic policies in the so-called real socialism did not achieve the objective, the change in the direction of economic policies promoted by the Communist Party of China made a significant change in the potential development of this country. "No matter what color the cat, as long as it catches mice." The development achieved using free-market policies and encouraging private enterprise in Communist China today make it possible for the government of President Hugo Chávez commander-convene the new Chinese entrepreneurs to save the ailing industry.
policies of economic liberalization to boost industrial diversification and encouragement to the initiative private, the process of decentralization, the elimination of controls and legislative flexibility, the signing of agreements with multilateral organizations in pursuit of more funds for investment and industrial restructuring, to get the resources to increase liquidity and stimulation demand, the signatures of economic agreements, free trade between countries. Formulas were applied after the crisis caused by debt and the failure of policies ECLAC the eighties. The objective balance, achieving balance between the role of the state and the free market, between public policy and private initiative, between economic development and development social and sustainable.
President Hugo Chavez commander stubbornly refuses to learn from mistakes and successes in economic policies even in countries that used as a model Russia and China and is committed to follow the errors committed in economic policy in Cuba North Korea and Iran and by the way inflation, food shortages and unemployment continue to grow in Venezuela.
Angel Cacique: Secretary General of Copei Caracas.
