La Guadeloupe strike
Since Tuesday, January 20, Guadeloupe beat like a general strike initiated by the lawsuit against the outrageous exploitation (LKP), which includes forty-seven unions, parties and associations of Guadeloupe.
Saturday 25, several thousand people (25,000 according to organizers - 8,000 according to the police) marched in Pointe-à-Pitre. For several hours, protesters chanted "The Gwadloup sé tan nou, has the Gwadloup pa ta yo yo yo its vle fè peke year péyi year-nu" ("Guadeloupe ours, it does not belong to them: they will not what they want in our country ").
LKP The Collective, led by Elijah Home Automation (Secretary General of the UGTG and part of the NAE) seeks, among other things, lower prices of essential commodities, the taxes, fees and fuel, the freezing of rents and an increase in Minimum wages and benefits.
Meanwhile, a strike also affects service stations whose bosses require limiting the number of stations and the prohibition of establishment of new automated stations.
The 115 service stations in the island are closed. Schools, shops and malls are closed. Utilities are no longer assured of collecting garbage to road passenger transport. Rolling blackouts cut power for two hours, 20,000 slices of unsuspecting subscribers. Water cuts are generated, as Generale des Eaux, for "malicious acts perpetrated on the network."
The book claims "Lyannaj pwofitasyon kont" (Collective against exploitation outrageous) demands including "an immediate recovery and therefore at least 200 euros low wages, pensions and social minima", that of the minimum wage and "Private sector wages, salaries of the civil service, the minimum pension, social minima", "pay Guadeloupe minimum calculated on the actual cost of living in Guadeloupe, "a" significant reduction of all fees and margins on basic commodities and transport "and" rates of tax on fuel, "" suppression of taxation of local products ", the" rent freeze for an indeterminate period, "" stop foreclosures properties of Guadeloupe and restitution.
I'll let you put all of their claims, but I prefer to here the end of the article is so long.
For me, it looks like more of a program election as a real platform for negotiations.
In total, 120 claims (146 today) which requires that they be negotiated Collective "in one place" with "State, local authorities and major employers' premises.
Saturday, January 24, 2009, after five days of conflict, key partners (state representative, county council, regional council, mayors, parliamentarians) were able to sit around a table at the World Trade Center (WTC) JARRY to start a "discussion" with members representing the collective Liyannaj pwofitasyon kont.
Chain Local (Channel 10 not to be quoted), acquired in the open movement, distills all day images of empty roads and dams and provides an information-partisan, non adversarial, with no real journalistic analysis.
When the debate is open, it retransmits the "negotiations".
However, with regard to television negotiations, each sticking to his guns and nobody wants to drop ballast. Not easy to make concessions when everyone looks at you.
Warden moreover openly challenged the "method" used to indicate that this is the first time he saw negotiations in this form.
A negotiation in good and due form shall be done in small working groups, and if possible in camera.
Reeve Nicolas Desforges, who has consulted with relevant departments including the departments involved and the Secretary of State for Overseas, Yves Jego, must make real proposals, Wednesday, January 28. In fact, he read a message from Yves Jego, citing two tracks on a bonus of 200 euros and an exemption from charges on wages below 1.4 times the SMIC.
Then the Warden got up to go to work on his side and left the WTC. This put an end to negotiations. For "Liyannaj pwofitasyon kont", "it will be resolved in the street." In the words of Elie Domota, Secretary General of the UGTG and spokesman of the collective punishment will result from this failure. Yet all this seemed inevitable, so the discussions stalled.
In three meetings, only 4 of 146 points total claims were addressed (upward of 200 euros on low wages, pensions and social minimum, a doubling of the allowance for disabled adults, lower airport taxes and lower tax Regional fuel). On each of these points, no response concrete has been made.
Regarding gasoline every day reserve its share of surprises.
Tuesday: gasoline for emergency vehicles and rental vehicles.
Wednesday: reducing the list of priority vehicles
Thursday: fear of reprisals, no stations open
Friday: resumption of the distribution of gasoline for emergency vehicles, but hire cars are no longer served.
The people here are regulars and fatalistic, because they have experienced in the past strikes very hard. They will make their reservations water and provisions.
Some people have even built tanks, along with their homes, to overcome any shortages and bought a generator.
Wednesday morning, a few shops opened their doors a few hours in the main street of Pointe-à-Pitre, but it was enough of the silent procession of a group of strikers bearing flags and pennants of FOR and local central labor CTU so that the shutters are lowered together.
Fortunately, here in Pointe-Noire, the mobilization is not too apparent.
Certainly, everyone has failed to make gasoline, but the disruption of water and electricity are less frequent than last week.
stores are still stocked, and we still find fruit, vegetables and other consumer products.
No dams or events. Only the picket at the hospital Beauperthuis (located in the section of Mahault POINTE NOIRE) reminds us mobilizing UGTG.
It is far from 25000 to 50000 people announced in the streets of Pointe-A-PITRE today.
The effects of the strike is especially felt on the mainland, which gradually empties of its tourists.
Club Med, which caters more new customers and made from the latter, the destination will not sell the entire month of February.
Messy blow to tourism Guadeloupe, which began with an attempt to boost falling prices of airline tickets.
Finally, I assure you, everything goes well here, except for Chantal who combines the roles of cook, nanny and school teacher. Indeed, children no longer go to school since Thursday, January 22, as the mistress had enough fuel to get here.
