Hello again ... sorry I have never written anything, but recently I was quite busy and in places without Internet. So pre-times run the elections here but reglich different from Europe! And although much different! :) So I tell you now just a few short episodes.
Until election day, the various parties further gas given correctly, umzüegen with parties and gifts and slogans and .... Finally, there were two favorites, a candidate who speaks English, unfortunately not much better than me and what a party belongs, which is untersützt many campesinos (peasants). The downside is that the rural population can be influenced very easily, and do not have a very good education. It is difficult for them to assess whether the candidates makes a right or not. This candidate is unfortunately one which in not really have the skills could manage the next 4 years, this huge sum of several 100 millions Soles. In addition, this candidate is also said that he is bought by the mining company. As for the mining company is then very easy course, the next four years through strike.
The other candidate is one of a new movement which is fighting for more democracy, and rights for the people (Tierra y libertate). He was already Alcalde (Mayor) and has been beaten by more or less well. He has, however, certainly have the knowledge and the necessary professionals in order to make the next four years well, and the necessary changes for better Primary care to make. Clear is that the Alcalde Minerie a bit more to reach into his pocket, but what does the Minerie certainly not hurt much;))
is So between these two candidates tie afferent about what the "estimates".
had on election day now, every citizen and every citizen in the polling stations, guarded very strictly by the military go to choose and had a Violete finger for identification. If they did not they paid a fine of about 30 CHF, which is a lot of money. For example, in the country now instead of elections, and this was about the same time very strange but in the suburbs of Espinar at exactly this time of Counting of votes turned out funny enough, the current random ,););) häää. And was also in Espinar from the time when the counts were a power failure, and this up in the morning. As the candidate of the Tierra y Libertad foresaw this, he said all his workers, they should bring candles and lamps in the polls, what was also very helpful. So that was a huge mess and it disappeared choice boxes and it was probably pretty manipulated. All this was promised to the candidates of the other party, which was probably paid by the Minerie. And with money you can also turn off the power here! And especially when the relay station is located in the mine :):):) squad border ... interesting ...... jaja
So, on the following day, more or less all the winners of the elections is known, except in Espinar, where people almost getting no end of the building company of choice. Since this is the choice of company was probably too hot then they sent the correct choice is not entirely visible by cartridges from Lima to the Office of the. Very simple when you look at the fingers will not get dirty:):) JAJA love the Peru ... So we have until now still no Alcalde! Since the distance between the two candidates is not very big. The city's population, however, has already celebrated the candidate of the party as a new T y L Alcalde. And I think if that will not happen so there is a strike in Espinar, however, demonstrates again and a lot more violent than before .....:(
I unfortunately had to leave in the meantime, as my time went in Espinar over and I am now back in Arequipa. The departure occurred to me at all unfortunately not easy, as my colleagues in Espinar were now very close and I was too middle of the project there. So I was fully set to zero in the family of my engineer Luciano and his three grown daughter to me right to my heart. Sigh ... (Summer and I made it short and sweet because it was easier for me, otherwise I would probably burst into tears ....;) Yeah every goodbye is hard .... Unfortunately this is not the final one as a farewell to me before my family here in Arequipa still stands. And here I will leave the can not do so quickly, what I'm already somewhat loaded ....
I am very confident that I will schnellstmögich zurückkeheren again in this special, but beautiful country as I have made many new friends. Until then, I've given away almost all my belongings to my friends because they can use it better than me, and anyway I need space for my souvenirs ....;););)
So I wish you a beautiful time and up to the nearest post your Helmut.
PS: I still have brought up new pictures of our past work and my Amigos, and videos of a normal dwelling of the farmers and a Main Street ... super cool street ..... :) So keep a look ....
