Note: automatic
translation still has to be corrected
Here verslagje from
Buenos Aires, where the election fever (elections
of Sunday 23 October) for the senate has incurred and
interim for the presidentsschap) the last days still
further. Buenos Aires hung already full with at, the
previous week became about a beetje each empty bit wall
volgeplakt with verkiezingsposters. The last days were
there demonstrations also more in the city. These see in
fact free sneu, because in an urban area with about 14
millions inhabitants and to estimate much more than 1
million unemployed person, are possible the organizers
no longer than 100 a 300 people on the leg bring for
their message. And that whereas one says that it goes
not well with Argentina and more than 50% of people
under the local poverty line lives. Possibly one finds
therefore that the current government is on good gone or
demonstrate by hard measures not terrible attractive is
made.
The elections go as a matter of fact paired with
particular measures. Politicians have been possible
conduct since Friday no campaign and more separate, all
public shows, sport events etc. its Sunday prohibited up
to 9 hours at night. This means that nightclubs also all
and sternly Saturday night closes 12 hours. Exactly now
we massive plans had to once a nightclub or visit
milonga (tango dancing club). Also there is an alcohol
prohibition up to 21 hours.
Friday night we have
therefore driven from Mendoza to Buenos Aires. The
second long bus ride and nevertheless astonishes we our
concerning the enormous luxury of the buses, which is
slightly similar with business class in a plane. Because
we do not have ourselves occupy with stolen luggage we
let us sleep also considerably improve then on the
outward journey.
Sunday the foot-beam-homer
River Plate
stood - Boca
juniors on the programme. With a group of
approximately 30 Argentinian and foreign guests (1/3
ended up Ireland) of the hostel went we to this game in
ell Monumental stadion of River Plate. The Dutch
voetbalfans here what less pleasant memories to have on,
because this is the stadion where the Netherlands lost
the final of the WK of 1978 with 3-1 of Argentina.
If we an hour for commencement of the game the stadion
in to come sits out, these already virtually to the cam
filled with frenzied in rood-wit (for inhabitants
Amsterdam a pleasant face) dressed River fans. If the
players of River enter the field the fictitious roof (it
is no Amsterdam sand) goes eraf.
Further we it do not meet however. list leader Boca
seemed come unfortunately for 0-0. what stronger if they
were, restricted them to quiet defends itself, much
theatre and time stretches from the beginning of the
game. The weaker River (stand number 12 of 20) tried
from all power force an aim point, but were not there
able. The supporters of River, a beetje the club of the
spoiled realms, have to effort their hold enthusiasm and
after a kwartier game environment falls in the stadion
what. The game finished indeed in by unworthy 0-0. that
has we. After the game we must wait still a half hour in
the stadion to that all Boca supporters the stadion
leave have to. The supportersscheiding are particularly
strict, of the touched security measures one in the
Netherlands still something is able learn.
Monday will do we at
the police force declaration of
the stolen case. We go to the special office where
tourists can do declaration, fill in firstly a form and
must vervolgens largely a half hour wait. Then there an
agent arrives whom our with an interpreter to the office
will transport which lies dense at place of the offence,
the bus station therefore. We astonish ourselves
concerning the fact that in the 3 kwartier that we are
in the buro there entirely no one else come in. Buenos
Aires then much would be more safe than it is claimed??
We are therefore transported to another buro and the
interpreter finishes hundred against the driver.
Vervolgens we the victim and starts explain the lady to
our that them its relation exactly has has been broken
with its friend, there these on the point stood will
marry. In the other buro the agent as a result, on duty
is the victim and between its tales she finds also still
time to catch up with us and the necessary translations
to give. When we leave the buro she wishes our further a
lot of pleasure and kisses them our both cordial gedag.
That last is, however, striking. Everything and everyone
seem here kiss each other continuously at arrival and
departure, only 1 fortunately. It does not happen still
net in the hypermarket, but for example at leave of
hostel where you a couple has been days, is that again
the most normal matter of the world. A sociable habit.
Beside this what more
more superficial gezoen, to see you in Buenos Aires
kissing paartjes vrijende also everywhere. In some parks
you belong absolutely to a small minority when you are
not involved in innige a tangle with a partner.
Passioneel people which Argentinians.
Is super the last time.
Constant tight blauw and about 25 up to 30 degrees. Back
of this is that it is very dry. Tuesday flies a part of
the natuurreservaat "reserve Ecologica Castenera Sur" in
the fire, this is Puerto close
Madero, Plaza the Mayo and reasonable in the buurt of
our hostel. About 20 hectares of this, because of the
position, unique area go up in the flames. Accidentally
we are litterally in the buurt, by the construction of a
metershoge boulevard along this area, can you with your
nose on the flames stand, straatkindertjes live their
afternoon of the year.
We amuse the rest of
the week our (beside work) the cafe Tortoni, boasted
with bezoekje to Argentinian
on
nicely wrong Jordanees
the
belles Artes
with among other things work of
Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Jongkind, Albert Cuyp
celebrate
and
French neck, bezoekje
to Casa Rosada and a visit to
the Evita museum
as bijv at Thalia in
Amsterdam, with tango dancing and music, a visit to
Museo nacional. This particular lady becomes here by
means of films, photograph, citaten and personal
property striking more or less brought to life in the
splendid bldg. which she has bought ever for the housing
of the Fundacion Ayuda Social Evita Peron, a foundation
which used himself for among other things poor women and
children.
Beside the elections Argentinie are kept also busy with
the America top which beginning November in the
mundane bathing resort Mar del Plata is kept. Annoying
bijkomstigheid of an America top is that the largest
bedreiger of world peace must be presently. In Argentina
there are therefore people also a lot of who George do
not want W. Bush begrijperlijkerwijze kinder in their
country. A number of them finds it unfortunately also
necessary by means of violence this to enforce. The last
months take place therefore from time to time small
attacks "American" aim as the bank bunch barrel, HSBC
bank and the MacDonalds. As far as we know its no
victims caught and are them purely intimidating of
nature.
The previous week got we also a number of
bulletins
nepal which we, however, mentioning invents
landlord.
-
Late we start that with the good news tourism
considerably attract, after declaring fires by the
Maoisten beginning September strikes. A opsteker for the
nepalese economy therefore.
-
A less bulletin is the following: A young person, Niek
pennings, which we have met in nepal appear already 3 up
to 4 months locked up sit in an indian cell. He worked
for a Dutch foundation for a documentary concerning
benevolence in nepal. To be task zat and he remained
still what longer in nepal to enjoy the country. At a
given moment its visa went and he to dark types which
would help him get a new visa, its passport has got rid
of, whereupon he without passport the border with India
has crossed. Then he was accused girlfriend by its
nepalese of vrouwensmokkel. A sad matter, because none
of he which knew him, believes that this is truth.
At present are stuck Niek therefore already a couple
months in piteous circumstances. With seven other
prisoners, among which violators and assassins sit,
he in an cell. The charge against him is not clear
and he gets badly to eat. By the bad hygienische
circumstances he has charge of infecties. Niek have
meddled themselves with found oneself people, but do not
deserve it as an offender be treated.
On
www.redniekpennings.nl one signatures have started
action for him
-
The last reported we just as have litterally cut and
have stuck from an e-mail which we have received and
concern a Nepalese use at verkeersongelukken. Read and
shiver!!
AND then this still!!!! Amrit past yielded tuesday
morning has been created by a bus which caught up with
another bus, Amrit zat at the back n engine and them
stood quiet in the verge, but the passing bus impossible
catches up with and had rapidly the verge made in to
avoid tegenligger. Schepte the engine with Amrit at the
back and the driver. Were touched firmly. Amrit lay
unconscious on the way exactly for the bus and zat under
blood
AND what comes now is not but really for 100% believe
where.
The bus-chauffeur tried what reverse because to drive he
there wanted drive once more across (that to do them in
nepal costs, then it but 25,000 rps if he is).
Fortunately omstanders Amrit of that has pulled away and
other omstanders the windshield of the bus has thrown in
and the driver from the bus drawn and considerably
beaten. Then the police force arrived they have
considerably taken the driver under hande (this way goes
that here) and were taken along by the police force,
that arrives in the barge. The bus-maatschappij winds up
fortunately for all costs that me in all case saves has
remained. Amrit have been unconsciously brought by
omstanders to the hospital in Bhaktapur where it
happened because they wait too long lasted for the
ambulance. There he has come after an hour and a half to
conscience, linked, been attached, clean made of blood
(verdomme are entirely touched nou I this mail) and was
etc. looked after.
THERE AGAIN ACROSS RUN OVER AND KILL THAT the VICTIM IS,
IS a MATTER WHICH HAPPENS IN NEPAL REGULARLY (once more
well have informed e.e.a. at others) then to be them
from further prosecution and costs. They are verd... for
years busy to get that law changed, but the high bosses
and owners of bus-maatschappijen and freight carriages
etc. stop that every time.
The costs of do not die and hospital and readjustment
etc.etc. are generally much more, for this reason, as a
victim costs have died 25,000 the rps and are them from
everything.
Reported in state already, which the writer has verified
the tale. For we it still scarcely could believe, we the
tale also once more have verified at acquaintances in
nepal, but it is unfortunately truth that such things
happen regular in nepal and that this is legally this
way regulated.
