Photo Armando Rivas Yesterday, the former mining town of La Paragua, Angostura municipality, were stationed in the Plaza Bolivar in front of the headquarters of the Government to ratify their claims and also require a political solution, the removal of the new president of Mission Piar, Damaso Mendoza, as well as the national director of mining concessions, Reinaldo Marcano, and Deputy Minister of Mines, Iván Marcano.
These former mining workers demand payment of compensation and social benefits promised by the Ministry of Basic Industry and Mining (Mibam), and announced that they will return to take their demands to Miraflores, while called for political intervention by the Governor Francisco Rangel Gomez and deputy and leader Yelitze Santaella.
"Enough that Mibam and the Ministry of Environment and bypassing continue dancing around these areas," said the spokesman of these workers, Alfredo Villanueva, who warned that the mining problem is becoming a powder keg ready to explode. He stressed that the Mission Piar has distorted his features and forgot welfare to mining.
He recalled how it continues the mockery and deception towards these people, after accepting the call that all mining conversion and the management promised payment under the former Minister Rodolfo Sanz and the former president of Mission Piar, Mirna Muñoz was not honored.
"We demand the cancellation of 15 000 strong bolivar as compensation and benefits for all workers who are not paid under the conversion mining," he said. He explained that a little more than two thousand 600 miners in 2006 of 6,072 were not receiving their money, while instead they were canceled at Mibam officials, Minerva and others who had never set foot in a mining area.
"The hunger strike we have for years"
He also expressed solidarity with the miners of the Incredible 6 in La Ramona, who, as customary tenure of the land now others are trying to give privileges to a Russian crime.
Villanueva reiterated the elevation of these claims to Miraflores and argued that "we do not sew their mouths and do not hunger strike, hunger strike because we have years ago when we condemned to starve." Upheld complaints about alleged intentional conduct Piar Mission under the supervision of Mirna Muñoz, and the collection of "vaccine" by troops in mining areas. "Mirna Muñoz diverted the resources of the miners were welcomed in the mining conversion, to pay people from Caracas, Guatire and Guarenas, as well as micro-credit agreement Piar Mission and bands that were given to people outside of mining.
Villanueva said the Comptroller's Office and have maintained a conspiratorial silence on these allegations.
