Hi Joao Boavida here are some friendly sugestions:
“1. CONSOLIDATION OF DEMOCRACY”
PD should add as:
1.11 - All Political Parties (especially PD) shall abide by elections results, as it is the only true indication of the peoples voice.
I would like to congratulate PD for coming second to FRETILIN in the Constituent Assembly elections. Well done for achieving 8.7 % of the popular vote and 7 out of 88 seats. This is a significant effort as FRETILIN polled 57.4% of the vote and took 55 seats in the 88-seat Assembly.

Joao Boavida. Is that the same one who I met in East Timor during a visit, and who was at the time working for Austcare who is run by retired Australian Army General Mike Smith, who served in East Timor with INTERFET? Can someone clarify that? That would be an interesting connection I did not make at the time.
ResponderEliminarConnection of Australia's interference in East Timor issues through inexperienced, and power greedy PD leaders?!...
ResponderEliminarYes! He surely is your man!
ResponderEliminarthe elections mentioned as far as I know were for a constitutional asembly, not for a legislative asembly and goverment.
ResponderEliminarThe excuse of lack of money cannot justify the sneaky way fretilin got into goverment.

Olá João Boavida aqui estão algumas sugestões amigáveis:
“1. CONSOLIDAÇÃO DA DEMOCRACIA”
O PD decia acrescentar:
1.11 – Todos os Partidos Políticos (especialmente o PD) devem respeitar os resultados das eleições, porque é a única indicação verdadeira da voz do povo.
Gostaria de congratular o PD por ter ficado em segundo lugar, a seguir à FRETILIN nas eleições para a Assembleia Constituinte. Parabéns por terem obtido 8.7 % do voto popular e sete em 88 lugares. Isto é um esforço significativo quando a FRETILIN obteve 57.4% dos votos e 55 lugares na Assembleia de 88 lugares.
Husu ba FRETILIN nia maromak MARI atu tulun imi manan tan iha eleisaun oin mai...Povu ne la beik tan.
ResponderEliminarO que é uma "assembleia constituinte", senão uma assembleia legislativa? Devo lembrar que a Constituição também é uma lei, sendo a lei fundamental do país, a matriz que molda a estrutura do Estado e da sociedade e da qual radicam todas as outras leis.
ResponderEliminarSeja como for, esse tema já está gasto e a eleição de 2007 aproxima-se a passos largos (assim espero). Convinha talvez à oposição começar a preocupar-se em ganhá-la.
"You are missing the point, FRETILIN was never sneaky it had the numbers attaind through free and fair elections, a 57.4% is a clear mandate entrusted by the people to FRETILIN to make decisions."
ResponderEliminarCorrection: "...a 57.4% is a clear mandate entrusted by the people to FRETILIN to draft the constitution but not hijack the peoples right to elect a legitimate Parliament through general eletions for that purpose."
well maybe if fretilin people hadn't of spent so much time in maputo they might understand democracy in such a simplistic way
