Susten 200 Capsule Leaflet

swallows an apology not enough is already


I still can not recover from the shock. The worst thing is that I hate to surprise me. I speak of Jaime Gonzalez, Executive Director of the Caribbean Riviera controversial project whose statements on the future of the project and the role of communities surrounding the former grounds of the Roosevelt Roads naval base already on everyone's lips. But even if yours are not, take note. Last Friday
purpose of our visit to Fajardo for a transmission para WKAQ invite a Daly Ávila , la portavoz de la Alianza Pro Desarrollo de Ceiba (APRODEC) con la intención de dar seguimiento al tema del portal.
Al final del programa de las 12 del medio dia, Ávila me rebelaba las declaraciones que hoy han provocado una marejada de comentarios. Pero escucharlo en boca de Daly no seria tan impactante como escucharlo en voz del funcionario.
Así que tras saber que el audio estaba en la pagina de APRODEC lo busqué, solo para encontrar que mis niveles de ira subían a grados in imaginados.

“Vamos a hacer unas tiendas, que algunas de las tiendas tendrán productos que no los van a poder comprar, pues ‘such is life. " Not everyone has been so graceful. But there is no exclusion here (...) And that does not even have 50 kids pa 'buy limbo for at least walk you can enjoy free of cost for those waterfront walkways and see the cruise ships come and see the passengers, passengers with kids, get off the cruise and see them get into the shops and see them buying expensive things and you think that complex, because I'm sorry for you, because life is so, not everyone was born so handsome " launched González.
After taking audio to the radio and then the expected reactions, the officer did an act of contrition and apologized. And although this could be sufficient to fill the space for the holder of the hour, certainly not eliminate the problem. No, because these expressions wrongheaded and prejudiced, reveal the essence of the public policy of the administration with regard to poor communities. A policy that already has been revealed in small pieces. Insurance reminiscent Jose Perez Riera, Secretary for Economic Development, when assured that the country is of great interest. So, apology or the typical press release from the Executive away from what was said by his deputy was not enough. González
statements have opened wide the doors to ideas that are the root of the actions of these officials. The poor are expendable if their land is needed to promote private capital. And that seems to be the maxim of government, the apology is just a shot in the air to divert attention.
The government should clarify whether that, public policy manifested by González, is, as seems clear, his own, even if it is spoken in a softer tone. The government should clarify whether regret beyond what was said, will require that fact to be reversed. It is useless to overrule or replace a public official, just so that other come to follow the same agenda to exclude the poor and promote their displacement.
Examples are numerous and recent cry for attention. The Martin Peña, the Poza del Obispo Arecibo or the community of Barrio Boca Barceloneta are more than enough examples to require much more than an apology.
