Alberto Ayala Gutierrez
Lakes Regional Fiscal Public Ministry
Present along with health, the undersigned, in represetación of our trade union organizations affiliated to our federation, we turn to you in order to make manifest our deep concern and indignation regarding the proceeding of the Prosecutor Sergio Coronado, who, as is public knowledge, gave to know some background on the research conducted by the arson attack at the offices of Salmon Chile, on May 3, indicating that there is a trade union linked to this fact, which does not identify, let alone presented evidence before a competent court, this action the Attorney Coronado plant a shadow of doubt on all trade union leaders salmon industry to provide this information in an irresponsible way tarnish union activity and those who develop.
In this context is that we do this to ask, through you to inform the National Prosecutor Mr. Sabas Chefchaouen, for a review of this situation and take appropriate measures to enable reparation to restore honor and dignity of those who did this activity and also correct the deficiencies in the actions of Fiscal Coronado, which certainly calls into question the professionalism and thoroughness of the institution you represent.
Without further careful and fraternal farewell
Ricardo Casas M President National Advisory FETRAINPES Confederation of Workers
The Federation of Fisheries, FETRAINPES, the Federation of Calbuco, FETRACAL, the Federation of Quellon, FETRAQ, and Trade Secretariat of Fisheries and Aquaculture National CUT, through this release are made known to the general public astonishment and concern at the news issued on July 22 on Radio Bio-Bio of Puerto Mont, at 17:30, which is reaffirmed today July 23, on the cover of local newspaper El Llanquihue, in relation to the arson attack to suffer the facilities of the Association of Producers and Processors of salmon, SalmonChile, last May 03 that, in the city of Puerto Montt.
The reporting in these media is that among the alleged perpetrators and instigators of this attack, contains a union leader salmon, which leaves us deeply shocked, because none of our leaders never have been involved in such activities.
think that, now what The aim is to put a smokescreen over the real problems of salmon farming sector, regarding employer and employee, to initiate a process of criminalization of the labor movement and all those social actors who now see with concern the way you are buying the bailout salmon industry, where one of his key points is the privatization of the sea for the benefit of major salmon farming companies, which did not accept. We deserve
doubt the fact that both the prosecution and police in Chile have given information of this type, which clearly goes against any judicial investigative process rigorous and professional, "warning" to the alleged perpetrators that "we have identified so booting" seems to us a very new investigative method that best seeks to protect the real culprits and tarnish the image of the union movement. In this regard we call on the National Fiscal Sabas Chaua ruling on the merits of this method that clearly presents several irregularities.
salmon trade union movement not approved to link us with this type of activity, let alone cast doubt on claims that all union leaders, we feel a lack of respect by the Prosecutor Coronado and specialized multidisciplinary team Carabineros deliver broadcast information without identifying the real culprits. This clearly is nothing more than a smokescreen that raises the prosecution in conjunction with police for the purpose of tarnishing the image of the union movement and victimize the truly responsible for the environmental and social crisis generated by the major salmon farming companies.
express our goal to continue fighting for the interests of workers in these maneuvers do not intimidate us and we will continue working to require the generation of jobs for unemployed workers and to prevent the privatization of the sea for the enjoyment irresponsible big business of salmon.
world, if you get to that place of honor has meaning life,
abortions, labor violations and anti-union practices ?..."
Deputy Fidel Espinoza (PS)
June 2006, the National Congress.
so often, the fishermen of southern Chile are taken streets, roads and bridges to demand an increase in fishing quotas that a bureaucrat , locked in his office without an ocean view, are assigned in the operation of distribution of "contributions of hunger" when it became fisheries regulations in this country.
is simply sharing the scraps left Ricardo Lagos Artisanal Fisheries when it decided, under his government to privatize the fish to give to the Angelini and Fisheries Nova in Spain, which so confidently "deposited" on it. Not for nothing, industrial fisheries managers also ended "loving" the protagonist's endless Case Gate.
Now, in the immediate future, the Free Men to Open Sea, the ancient Channels occupants and Patagonian fjords and for the past 30 centuries, will go to rescue over water allocations in order to continue operating if they prosper legal reforms for the Privatization of the Sea, which promotes the socialist government of Michelle Bachelet.
Indeed, trading in influence exercised by the Banking Association and the submissiveness of parliament mostly fanatical Socialist in Congress, want to take to port the realization of a dream neo- liberal or Milton Friedman had: THE PRIVATIZATION OF THE SEA.
Why is that and nothing more so in the House of Representatives (by 92 votes in favor and one against) and recently in the Senate (by 28 votes in favor and three against) is has approved the "general" as a prelude to the Chileans lost in the hands of a Socialist government, it promised Sea future splendor.
Under the guise of increase health checks Salmon industry that no longer exists and has more roles in the Santiago Stock Exchange that fish in the water, a group of NGOs representing themselves, ruined salmon, inefficient public services and banks desperate to recover part of the money thrown into the bottomless pit that became Salmon-Chile, devised a formula to end the crisis that has terminal Salmon Industry and is not health, but financial.
Because the problem is no longer in the floating cages where floating salmon rotting corpses of fish without worthless, the problem is in the bank accounts of customers and shareholders of banks that were left naive propaganda wrapped up sometimes infamous Salmon-Chile and lent billions of dollars to an industry that had never Chile chance of success ... and has no money to pay the $ 4,000 million owed to private banks.
The solution to this economic disaster is the privatization of the sea, the only thing of value that has even the "successful" and that Salmon Industry, however, and even the next 15 days, following being of all Chileans.
That's what the "patriotic" House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved the May 20, 2009, by a vote of all the Socialist deputies that evolved from the nationalization of copper Privatization of the Sea in less than two decades and the Deputy Tarud (PPD) who prefers the sea to give the Norwegians, Japanese and English to an outlet to the sea for Bolivia ...
In Article 81 bis of the package of reforms to the Law on Fisheries and Aquaculture that the "Patriots" and "Socialist" approved a day before the commemoration of the exploits of Prat, reads as follows:
Article 81 bis.
"Without prejudice to other legal transactions, mortgage may become the issuing or aquaculture. The mortgage on aquaculture concessions or permits must be granted by public deed and entered in the Register of Mortgages and Liens of the Real Estate ... "
And lest anyone be deceived and had clear it was not anything that could be privatized, four deputies of the UDI introduced an indication also approved by the House of Representatives :
"The mortgage does not extend to fish, nets and cages in existing aquaculture concessions or permits ..."
No justification is that this "health program" that is to proceed with the privatization of the sea, devised by a crier out of nonsense and attack the real sense, such as Felipe Sandoval, or control of the new health plans SERNAPESCA it delivered to the most inefficient public services, which allowed a virus today contaminate 70% of the Chilean Coastal Fringe and continue downloading the wellboats salmon red tide Quellón.
They want this group of dreamers unable private prosecutors and, still believe it is possible to put "sustainability" to Salmon Industry, is simple to understand: they want to fill the southern sea safety boxes of its customers, now empty.
And the sea that want to give a bonus track (also because the state is paying $ 450 million to expropriate it from its territory) is territory of Artisanal Fisheries.
The process of privatization of the sea is more advanced what you think and what they may know the parliamentarians themselves. SERNAPESCA, with a syllabus of inefficiencies and errors that make the "top one" of public services less fortunate and incapable in the state apparatus (closely contesting the pole position with CONAMA) has published coordinates Barrios called raised salmon where sanitary measures to boost an industry that no longer exists ....
Los Barrios salmon of the new Macondo.
SERNAPESCA Los Barrios salmon, are a prelude to the eradication of Artisanal Fisheries from their ancestral lands, the same as the Fisheries Act itself now in the process of being renovated (to make it even more neo- liberal) are recognized in Article 47.
Los Barrios salmon were drawn with the same seriousness with which application and identified areas suitable for Aquaculture (AAA) that allowed to manage the installation of these sewers floating Norwegians, Japanese, Dutch and English banks placed on our natural. That is, these neighborhoods have become salmon with the same ruler and pencil used to draw the polygons of the AAA ... and nothing else.
Where were cultured salmon unknown load capacities or operated system response, which poured millions of tons of fish feces and non-digested food, another bureaucrat marked limits over 30 Barrios salmon for a nonexistent industry can act even more freely than before.
is, have parceled the Southern Inland Sea, areas reserved for artisanal fisheries to create Barrios for ghosts. Where, if not in Macondo, the imaginary kingdom of Gabriel García Márquez, it may be something like this?
To manage these Barrios Phantom and the new regulations to regulate the breeding of fish are ghosts, SERNAPESCA has been chosen as the coordinating body, which in February 2009, long before discussion was initiated even in this package of amendments to the Fisheries Act to privatize the southern sea, has published the coordinates of each estates established by the State to proceed with the privatization of assets of all Chileans.
Again, it works against a fait accompli, they are no longer under discussion, Barrios salmon plate "Partnerships Awards": these have already been created for the efficient SERNAPESCA and with the seriousness and dedication that characterizes him, that is, quick, secret and what came out ....
On June 27 this year, the newspaper El Mercurio published a note SERNAPESCA -Los Lagos acknowledged "problems" to monitor implementation of new health measures for salmon in the 14 hectares that this toxic industry occupied between X and XI Regions [1] .
SERNAPESCA is nothing new that has "problems" to control the Salmon Industry , because while it existed, did SERNAPESCA blind eye to all the irregularities committed by the tens of centers water production occupied illegally or obtained over-production up to 11 times above the permitted ... and sacredly SERNAPESCA Viso and allowed transit.
only an inhabitant of Macondo could believe that SERNAPESCA even have the intention to scrutinize.
But more typical of Macondo is the fact that any salmon Barrios designed as a screen to proceed with the privatization of the sea, is larger than the area where they have confessed SERNAPESCA "problems" to control.
is, the state that recognizes same service "issues" to oversee 14 000 hectares, drew these three areas that together are 14 times higher than the area that can not monitor .. .. Neither the classic novel of Gabo appears something like this. Chile has surpassed the creativity of the great boom of Colombia.
Thus, all Aysen Fjord (Map 4) the entire sea surrounding Isla Magdalena National Park, full Quellón, among others, have been qualified for the Service took the pole position in the inoperative state, as Barrios salmon ...
How do you explain the Chilean State to the German state that everything that the European nation donated to fund the zoning process Coastline Use in the Aysen Region, has now been squandered by an expert in the use of the rule and pencil and the areas that were rated as "priority for Tourism" and / or preferred for Conservation "were simply absorbed into a neighborhood salmon, such as Puyuhuapi Canal, Port Swans? (Map 2 and Map 3).
matter what you decide in the National Congress Artisanal Fisheries already has its own evidence: the current state of post-dictatorship does not guarantee its existence. The current neo-liberal capitalist state and was willing to take your fish (and did) now appears ready to take its Sea, its origin and culture and economic activity.
More than he needs to lobby Artisanal Fisheries lest some day, if it avoids privatization sea \u200b\u200bin the next two weeks, I permanently deleted.
and must begin to organize itself.
Moreover, Artisanal Fisheries of the Lake District has continued to work with an irregular and illegal zoning process Using Coastline where the center of this land is ... facilitate the creation of Barrios salmon. In other words, leaders of Artisanal Fisheries of the Lake District, appear to work with their own extinction, something equivalent to servile behavior of workers CONATRASAL salmon, which aims to ensure that once the state gives him a U.S. sea $ 450 million in all Chileans to banks, no matter that not a drop of water and a penny will go to workers already dismissed salmon or fire.
who should be working out for leaders CONATRASAL ... and to whom do the leaders of Artisanal Fisheries of Region X de Los Lagos.
Beyond the facts of these unusual initiatives taken by the Executive and the shameful proceedings he had in the Chamber of Deputies, which will in time is that as Lagos removed the fish Artisanal Fisheries, now President Bachelet wants to remove its Sea and is about to do.
In the documentary "The sea ..." Dauno of Totoro, a fisherman from the Caleta El Quince of Region V, said:
"... The joy is coming ... Growth with Equality ... So the Government told us .... When he said that, we had thousand or so tons .... we now have two and so many tons ... Where is the Joy ?...".
That will be the historical result that had the governments of the Coalition for Artisanal Fisheries : snatch steal their fish and sea ...
As to be cheerful ...
