Why Does Kidde Smoke Detector Beep W New Battery

First demonstration of transantiago users.

Today at 08:00 am., At the intersection of The Grating Alameda , the Coordinator of User Committees and neighbors of the communes of Cerro Navia, Lo Prado, Central Station, Quinta Normal and Maipú were upset by the repeated hikes System Passenger Transportation (STP).


The protest was peaceful in nature and gave an opinion to users by means of posters and flip charts alluding against these measures. At the rally were workers, neighborhood leaders and commune councilors mentioned Quinta Normal and Pudahuel.

Participants rated the hikes as wrongdoing, as they produce a bit of facing a national catastrophe, as was the earthquake, and are the poorest sectors always affected by these measures.

Among other things, demanded the government repeal the measure.

The event was covered by the media and detected by monitoring the traffic. Similarly was the police monitors closely. There were no incidents since the outset, we characterized the action as "peaceful."

Statements:

Tamara Homel, who acts as coordinator of the Committee pointed out that transantiago Users "We are just stating against the hikes because é stas mean a decline in family income workers, since they promised a quality service, efficient , clean and fast, all issues that have not been met. They are still traveling in appalling conditions, subjected to risk of accidents, the meshes of routes have been completed in various sectors of the communities furthest from the center frequencies and fail to resolve the transfer of passengers. Moreover there are poorly implemented or simply stops are not yet built.

hikes transantiago reject being a system that has delivered a quality service that workers deserve.

face questions evasion, Tamara Homel said "it should be revised where the escapes occur, as the largest not-exactly-are caused by users " called" no lift up campaigns that seek only to those with less, transantiago losses have not generated the user but has generated the core of the system as it is poorly designed and implemented.

"Llo fact is that compared to poor service" you. What would you pay? Bear in mind that they are workers. Even buses are the same who open their doors rear, which is precisely where all of the validators. This is just like stealing a chicken: the poor man jailed 5 years and one day, while the big crooks in this country no one pursues. Hence the ad campaign is immoral and unethical, because nobody pursued and employers when they evaded their responsibilities. It is unethical for the government, through the ministry of transport, evade the responsibility of delivering a quality service. "

not continue to accept increases in basic services for the Chileans.

with the date, councilors and community leaders and trade union press conference was held Transantiago User

on the local Federation of Students University of Chile held its first press Action Coordinator Transantiago Users Committees. Together with several other community leaders delivered "... a first opinion on the fare hike in transport ..."

Rising, by itself, is a decline in the already reduced workers' wages Santiago, an issue that, according to Sergio Sepúlveda "This action has caused the reaction of users to take this means of daily transport, because the resulting impact on the family budget turns out to be important. " And it is true that, as a family whose income equals the minimum wage will have to occupy about 40% of that amount only transport.

But the rise not only affects users who go to work, because the rise is also running for the students. Hence Julio Sarmiento said "it is important to re-constiruir Users Committees, not only in the population or workplace, we call also for students through the Student Center and organized manner, to oppose this rise ". Sarmiento stressed the need to raise awareness about what which means a new increase of the passage, because it is not 10 or 20 dollars more, this is a permanent way of bringing down the cost of modernity on the shoulders of the vulnerable.

two leaders, supported by actors representative of the population, stressed the urgency of discussing the fundamental problems with respect to the Passenger Transport System (PTS), ie, membership of the same: "may be acceptable up if she would be reflected in improvements in the transport system, such as comfort, frequency and regularity in the decontamination, initial offers of STP, as well as acceptable that the state would subsidize the transport to the extent that it was a state enterprise, but not given neither the one nor the other, so we asked to pay more for poor service and take care of all resources Chilean maintain profits to a handful of 10 large employers "

Finally noted that occupy their energies on reset and reset the 22 user committees that worked until mid-2007, aimed at making assemblies create a coherent and sustainable solution. In this way intend to meet with the Minister of the area and, if not heard their demands, not rule out calling demonstrations.

Milena Velba Got Milk

... and want us to pay more on top?!

"This is downright disastrous." With these words, H. Senator Jovino Novoa (UDI) has criticized the current state of the Passenger Transport System (PTS). Strangely, for this time can not but be very much agree with the senator. It is sadly comical that these 4 words have been repeated more than three years on the lips of actual users of Transantiago (TS), and can not be otherwise.
After the start of the STP-violent in times of Concertación-the changes made to the central idea that gave birth to TS have been minimal, not a few of them were made by the committees of Members (CDU) born spontaneously before the insult done to the popular sectors of Greater Santiago. However, these proposals and actions that took place when lifted, failed to solve the problem which involves the maintenance and viability of this STP scale, an issue that is related to the ownership of the system itself. Undoubtedly, this is an issue still pending.

Nonetheless, calls attention to the astonishment and anger of the honorable deal with a situation that he, his party and its alliance could be avoided. Torn clothing today gave its approval yesterday to a STP failed in its genesis, away from the needs of the population, with tours of unintelligible and useless, with machines "pimp" that did not yesterday, not today able to reduce the high levels of air pollution , with incredible delays and serious problems "frequency" with a prepayment system that borders on illegality and a state subsidy ensures that only income to the coffers of the 10 businessmen who took over a responsibility that falls to the State, transport workers, students and residents to respective destinations.


And despite these shortcomings, despite broken promises such as providing information on the signage for the elderly, facilitating access to bus stops and buses for the disabled; the unfulfilled promise of reducing air and noise pollution, the offer of reduction time trips were not satisfied, and so on, with most above all want to ... pay!. Who pays for rotten meat? Do they pay for a damaged car? Is it fair to pay for a service that is far in excess of what is offered?. No! It is not fair.


And as it is not fair to pay for a service that does not comply with the offering, nor is the silence of the innocent users.


It is imperative to resume the debate on the state's role in the transport of Santiago. The grant that all Chileans paid to owners of micro entrepreneurs will live the expense of other regions of the country and the quality of transport is far-still-the needs of the population.


While the above issues are the substantive disputes must be resolved in the immediate future we should be challenged to face new price hike in the passage that has revealed the current government.


March and April suffered two increments, with fifteen days away. Again in May will be an increase in the value of the ticket. From Monday May 10 was suspended duration of a passage for two hours. There is no doubt that the next step will be payable on each transfer and that would be the final defeat in the dwindling pockets of workers and their families.


Is it possible to avoid such an outcome? Indeed it is, however, this is organization and struggle.


From this rostrum begins the call to re-articulation of the so-called user committees, committees against the hikes, the consumer protection committees to come before their own government measures on the right and entrepreneurship.


is time to organize and coordinate to stop rising, to stop the strangulation of the household economy, to stop the transfer of the responsibilities that fit the state and not a handful of minority entrepreneurs profit from today despite working people.
