Launch of book, record and film for Water against Pascua Lama Huasco
After five days of roaming the Huasco Valley, Atacama Region, making the triple release of different materials on the conflict with transnational companies wishing to move in headwaters of the basin, nearly 300 people have been able to access the book "Pascua Lama: Armed conflict behind us," the musical CD "United for Water Say No to Pascua Lama, the plunder and pollution, and internationally award-winning documentary "El Dorado: the thirst of gold."
The first launch was held at the House of Culture on Monday Vallenar 26, where artists were present Shorypunk locally and to contribute to the presentation of the book, the album and documentary.
A similar activity took place on Tuesday at the front of the Church of Alto del Carmen, where religious communities provided the necessary infrastructure to share in the mega journey through life.

local radio
After release in Alto del Carmen, an incident occurred when two members of the Coordinating against Pascua Lama - Stgo, went to the radio which depends on the municipality of Alto del Carmen. The idea was to thank the good reception of the people, and report that in the coming days would be held the same event in different locations.
While the two were waiting in the same radio booth were given the signal to start thanks, was the director of media to say they could not get on the air. This is because the position antiBarrick that both had expressed openly during those days. Were orders of a superior. Both asked and reached the same municipality to talk with Mr. Fernando Flores, an adviser to the new mayor, Nora Rojas, who laid bare his paternalism as municipal politics when he referred to the director of the radius of the municipality of Alto del Carmen "child" and when referring to members of the coordinator as "boys." However, the most powerful argument was that the municipality could not take part in this conflict, which should be neutral, and that its role was to maintain "control" and avoid conflict.
Chiguinto moves
Fortunately, Chiguinto expected to launch triple against the mining project. This spoke of the book, record, and was the documentary. After the mega event, led to a small meeting where they discussed the current situation, he reviewed the project site El Morro and La Fortuna, the Limestone plant Barrick, the thermal expansion of Guacolda, and how can be followed with community resistance from Huasco Valley after nearly ten years of conflict.
Criticism was the prevailing economic model and the binomial electoral system, with which it hopes to achieve a common strategy to meet the new candidates for the presidential chair. Which by the way, Eduardo Frei is absolutely identified as the author of binational mining treaty allows first bi-national project, Pascua Lama. As stated in Chiguinto, "the same shit but with different flies." And
