    APDH Rocks!!!

    Hello Hello Greetings from LA NUEVA PATRIA!!!! ECUADOR!!
     
    So, i wanted to tell you about one of the most exciting days of my life... where i finally see people concern about their country.... working hard and activating political participation..... or democracia del tumulto? Well.... that i can't really tell you for sure! Let's just say that changes are happening..... Ecuador is joining the lefted Latin America.. and we talk here about progressism, which means positive changes... Weather is positive or not... well that no one can tell!!!!
     
    So what happend today that im writting so excitly about?? With the APDH and other organizations of Ecuador gather to express their consent to LACONSTITUYENTE... this means a new constitution for Ecuador!... Some people say its actually not that good, because it will give more faculties to the president and its a fast way to populism and dictatorishop, OR that "hey, we had like 19 constitution befores, and nothing ever changed!!!" The rest of the people says that it is waht Ecuador needs to actually give birth to a new Ecuador, an Ecuador for the people, with natural resources that belong to the population.... with more equality.....with peace that comes only from the wellness of the people!
     
    AnywayS, the thing is very hectic this days, and even if i haven't made up my mind about my politicual location, i know for sure that manifestation, such as the one i experieced today, are necessary in any country that wants positive changes! There for,  will call myself from now on.. Progressist!
