The bombastic vocabulary Salvadoran politician betrays its emptiness. Funes President has taken the style and smeared it on every chance presents itself, and if not there then create it. This is what happened with the Advisory Council. In the words of the president, will be addressed in that forum "National issues." The capital is used here as a screen to hide the baloney. Surely this new body will also be "an important step in the life of the Republic and the construction of democratic coexistence. And this is not a rhetorical formulation is not a phrase devoid of content. " These words served to kick off the activities of the CES. There also would address the issues most important to the nation, there was represented the entire "civil society." But his recommendations would not have the character of office, his advice would be just that. Presidential note of caution, know that lack of content, but expect criticism.
The formation of the CES was contrived, they really were represented were the patrons, workers in part because the trade unions can not claim to be representative of all employees. In any case, since the representatives of the ANEP decided to leave because they no longer had that weight Economic and Social Council. Now go into competition with another body which in turn will try to "issues of nation."
But the configuration of the new Advisory Council gives a very different character. Former presidents have continued to be active politicians, all members of the governing body of the main opposition party ARENA, COENA. Funes ie through the window does what voters had thrown out the big door.
Sure the president repeated that the Advisory Council is a part of the device, which should put us on another path, one side of democracy and development in other aspirations are indispensable in our government. In both directions "Consultative Council" represents a concrete step to making that vision first, because it is a forum for dialogue, consultation, in which the parties operate under equal conditions, Second, because it is a appropriate entity for the exchange of views and proposals on the basis of national development. " Funes said already on that occasion. We now repeat.
But I do not tell the president are profound reasons for this convocation, in which Mauricio Funes not only to rehabilitate ex-presidents, but also the result of their administrations presidential. Say no say in his speech his deep motivations. But we all know and obvious that this new device is a step towards the right and the neglect of his criticism of the past. I recall what I said a prominent member of the Economic and Social Council, Joseph M. Tojeira commenting the president's speech on the day of his inauguration. Rector of the UCA seemed good speech, good as the new president was making it, a man of ethics. I quote: "The ethical content of his speech, his promises to fight poverty and exclusion, their claims and commitments in the fight against corruption we welcome and meet ".
Father Joseph M. Tojeira add a little more down as follows: " Mauricio was right to distance themselves clearly from previous governments . His denunciation of corruption, inefficiency and neglect of the poor has been clear. But if there is clear evidence of corruption, good will that some of the corrupt past government prosecute them, just to ensure that complaints are not only, as is tradition among us, pure word without repercussion in the field of justice . Better still was the permanent appointment of Monsignor Romero, not only in this speech, but in the morning visit to the tomb and on many other occasions. It also set the bar very high, as wanting to rule according to Romero's dreams is not easy for anyone. And, of course, nor to the left. But quoting Romero Mauricio will certainly honor. "
But Funes rushed to distance themselves from the party also brought him to power. Funes argued fallacy is now the president of all. It is a fallacy, because the constitutional evidence, or imply giving up their commitment in favor, nor any of his campaign promises, including combat and pursuit of the corrupt. Ligo this with what is happening now with the call Advisory Council because it is the consistent continuity.
The anchor on the right of Funes I denounced during the campaign, so I have no qualms about doing it again today. I'm not saying turn, but anchor. It appeared from the beginning of his government and this collusion with corruption. A few days Funes government, we all remember, there were reports of wages and jobs associating fiction convenience for friends, spouses and others in the administration. Again, Joseph M. Tojeira expressed in the Co-Latino : "In recent days have published a series of administrative details that show not only past irregularities and cronyism that runs our government, but the openness with which they defend themselves the beneficiaries of the corruption. Relatives of individuals who collected in one place and working in another stay so calm saying it is standard in the world and do not care where the funds went reciprocated their work. The deputy physician sees as normal as having a high paying job in two places simultaneously, and all the ARENA political scene seems right to receive from here and there. " Funes
he soon declare he was not interested to pursue the corrupt, but to end corruption. The idiocy of these words jump view without mental effort. Corruption is the work of the corrupt and the law imposes punish criminals, not crime. I draw the logical stupidity because the lack of ethics is a matter to denounce it.
However, the rector of the UCA is now adding something spicy. Let us then: "The most surprising in this whole process has been the former president Cristiani, and now President of ARENA, which tells Mauricio Funes walks not taking things that he can mention is also past irregularities." Besides the "give and take" proposed by Cristiani, it is then our former president had not yet severed their relations with Tony Saca (our environment bachelor former president) and then defended it. Cristiani was then ARENA Saca he accused of embezzling public funds and which was silent on this was Funes. Then he spoke of a clandestine political engagement between Saca and Funes.
Funes But I do not think this mess is doing to entertain the house of his presidential circus. What we can not deny is that this is a step in its strategy of "national unity". The same FMLN spokesman Deputy Lorenzana, said the president was consistent with its policy of "national unity" to establish this new Council.
Not long ago the president took for granted the future presence in his government of ministers of the right, or WINS ARENA and nothing scandalous presence. This also Funes the unit was located in their national efforts. The only ones that were expressed were some leaders of the right, prudent, declined the offers. Maybe they do not seem that the tamale was very well secured.
The past mismanagement, stagnation of the country, the delay are not fruits of the government led by Cristiani, Caldwell, Flores and Saca, but works of the hairy hand of fate maféfico the Salvadoran people. The president who knows that social policy is criticized even by the right, because according to editorial in La Prensa Gráfica on Thursday, the policy has the "form of programitas care." He knows that the patronage was held in investment strike, saying distrust. The origin of this distrust is the presence of ministers FMLN. The board has proved dull and inattentive to the proposals of good services of Jose Luis Merino and Medardo Gonzalez, FMLN leaders.
Funes himself invited employers to lose their fear by the FMLN to abandon the dogmatism of the leaders of the ANEP, suggested they meet with the leaders of the FMLN. He even made an example, he had told them met with them, who had negotiated. Such is the distance that separates him from the party that brought him to power, he had to meet to regain their confidence in those who were given hands and feet tied. But even this example of Funes, nor his scolding (the aforementioned columnist for La Prensa said: "attitudes feverish") make a dent in patronage. Funes then try this abracadabra to rehabilitated former presidents, accompanied by leaders of all legally recognized parties, to devise a "move" that will give results.
The goal is to establish that a leftist government is incapable of solving the country's problems, it is necessary turn to those who know, who have experience, right. And now all the promises remain as promises. The option is in these circumstances Processors shall discredited. Discredited by the "candidate of change" and his policies, discredited by the party that was given to this hoax, the FMLN. The Advisory Council's mission is to close the window that had opened. Two
they are the moves of Funes this Advisory Council, first prepare a consensus for a government of "national unity" with right-wing ministers, perhaps with some of the FMLN and second, to present as impossible a policy of transformation.
