By:Lucilo Tejera Díaz

In spite of the severe effects of the crisis in the Cuban economy, the boy Leonardo Olivera is partly of those that drank every day cow milk, thanks to the contribution of the cattle peasants of the county of Camagüey.

Daylí Alonso, mother of the small one, acquired each day the container with 917 milliliters of the food that the State subsidizes for those smaller than seven years of age and people with medical diet, besides the supply to infantile circles and hospital centers.

The uninterrupted supply to that population owes himself in good measure to that the agrarian ones affiliated to the National Association of Small Farmers (ANAP) they reached the sale of 50 million liters hired for the year with the company Milky Products.

With this result they overcome in three million units the registration of the 2008.

Aida Díaz, of the address of the ANAP in Camagüey, said to the AIN that the cattlemen are buried now in marketing with the industry 58 million liters, quantity that means the commitment for the 2009 before the birdcall of the country of elevating the national production to diminish the imports.

Also, highlighted the growing participation of producers and cooperative in emulatives movements .

In Camagüey a member already overcomes the 340 thousand liters sold to “Milky Products” and other four will close the year with more than 100 thousand each one, while four cooperatives of Credits and Services that contain individual cattlemen, will be millionaire.

Including the administration of Basic Units of Cooperative Production and state farms, the county accumulates 82 million liters sent to the industry, and can that finishes the 2009 with about 93 millions, registration that would surpass that hired and would mean growth in connection with the previous year.

The seeds of the education sowed by Fidel

Por:Enrique Atiénzar Rivero

November 27, 1959-to almost a month of the Commandant Camilo Cienfuegos` tragic disappearance - Fidel returned to Camagüey and he received the back multitudinary of the town again in a concentration, without precedents, taken place in the current square “Joaquín de Agüero”. The motivation of the Historical Leader of the Revolution of meeting with the people of Camagüey went different to that of October 21, dates in that the sedition of the treacherous Húber Matos was neutralized. This time he came to give the children and teachers the old barracks “Ignacio Agramante”, transformed into school city, and to inaugurate the hospital “Amalia Simoni” in the tract of the double via “Carlos J. Finlay” toward the airport.

Present witness of the appointment in the formerly military installation and of the act, as the retired José Luis Cadenas, remember both events like momentous, each one with its peculiarities.

In the first one, to see that show-as Fidel qualified him - of thousands and thousands of children with Cuban flags next to their teachers, a reality that marked forever to this town.

From one improvised and converged tribe

na spoke to the president Osvaldo Dorticós; the minister of Education, Armando Hart Dávalos, and Fidel in an educational enaltecetor environment: 52 classrooms for the teachings preescolar, primary and of basic high school, without being neglected other details: schools of plastic arts, dramatic and technical, library, museum, clinic medical estomatologic, in short, everything for the well-being of the new generations.

The concentration of that afternoon was recorded in Fidel's mind. He went so when looking toward Chains he asked for the possible figure of participants. The man shrank of shoulders, he knew that there was an extraordinary crowd, but he didn't know how to calculate the number.

“But, when saying goodbye, I love them that thanks to you we leave today of this county with the doubled energy, with the doubled faith and with the enthusiasm doubled to continue ahead.”

And Fidel November 27, 1959 left with the conviction: “With the town of Camagüey we will be able to count always…in the most difficult days and five pesetas to liberate new battles….”

Of the transformations of the Camagüey and their works, dreamt by Fidel, there are tests in these extensive plains where rides in silence in his energetic steed the biggest General Ignacio Agramonte, an entire symbol of gallantry and patriotism.

Cuban internationalists: delivery examples and love

Cuban internationalists: delivery examples and our love. Liquidate own debt with the humanity were the definition that gave the historical leader of the Cuban Revolution Fidel Castro Ruz to the internationalist work carried out by thousands and women and men to name of this Caribbean archipelague, in different latitudes of the world.

The collaboration of the doctors, nurses and other specialists of the health of the bigger than the Antilles, began in the decade of the 60 in Algeria and from those initial actions the preventive work that characterizes to the Cuban Medicine, put on so far, in function of to save and to improve the quality of life of the more unprotected in nations of Asia, África and Latin America.

Rights of the childhood in Cuba: a critical exercise

By:Mabel Pérez Quintana

The recent report of the North American organization Human Rights Watch (HRW) on the human rights in Cuba claims a reflexive look to the individual freedoms that our social system offers to its citizens. For contextualize the topic, I take advantage of the celebration of the twentieth anniversary of the Convention on the Boy's Rights, November 20.

Without forgetting the critical eye, I contrast the main postulates of this juridical instrument-right to the freedom, right to the education, right to the health, right to the equality, among other-with my brother's reality, my cousins, my neighbors, the friends of my neighbors, and those of them: it doesn't fit doubt, the girls and children for me verified they enjoy to fullness their right to the game, to the protection of their parents, to the respect of their sexuality, to express their approaches and listened being, etc. “My children” they are very blissful and, also, very happy. However, I continue the investigation trying to arrive to those infants that “they are gone of the hands.”

In Cuba, the law guarantees the minor security: even before the 89´, when the Organization of United Nations pled for the rights of children and adolescents, it already existed The Code of the Childhood and the Youth to which have been added later ordinances to be moderated at the new times. Political public they establish the commitment of the family, the school and the community in the formation and protection of those smaller than 18 years.

José Juan Ortiz Bru, representative of the UNICEF, went categorical when referring to the situation of the country regarding this topic: Cuba has a peculiarity for many years: to have to the childhood like a political priority. Here the protective environments were created, you potenciated and try to stay to the maximum the protected values at family level, community, of country. Which is the result of that? Because that of the millions of children without school, without health, in organized bands, in prostitution nets... none is Cuban or Cuban.

Of more say that with these favorable results, the twenty anniversary of the Convention on the Boy's Rights was a total revel in the schools of the territory: collective birthday, sport and cultural festivals, interactive forums; and like closing, a concert organized by the UNICEF and the cantautor Raúl Peace, with the participation of artists of the patio and strange, members of the project Schools against Hurricanes.

But, among so many good news, imagine which my surprise would be when discovering that United States is the only country that has not ratified the accepted international treaty of human rights in the history, the one that the Cuban children take place every day. And I say the only country because Somalia, the other one that it lacked of the 192 states members of the UN, announced November 20 that it will ratify the Convention shortly on the Boy's Rights.

Now I wonder how the Latin children will walk, the Afro-Americans, the poor children, the handicapped and all the American children that don't enjoy the indispensable right to live in a state responsible for their protection. I wonder if the Human Rights Watch (HRW) will have time to look to their surroundings and to demand the freedom and the happiness of “their children.”

With the elegance of the good to dress suggested by the Cuban designer Evidio Perdomo in the parade of fashions “Complementary”, began this Sunday the VIII Provincial Living room of Craft, with headquarters in this city up to November 27.

The painter's student Antonia Eiriz, Perdomo is recognized in national scenaries and of the world, mainly in Europe and America, for its manual work with the patch to the medieval usage and its postmodern vision in the wardrobe with utilitarian value and that it works like support of plastic works, according to the specialist José Antonio González.

The night also propitiated the inauguration of the central living room in the gallery Midas, where are exposed more than 140 works of 115 artisans artists and fans, in the size manifestations in wood, ceramic, miscellany, skin, textile, metals and papier maché.

Let us toast for… the respect

By:Ernesto Pantaleón Medina\Televisión Camagüey

To say carajo! it is not something excessively serious, although it attempts against the strictest norms in the formal education, and ahead of time I apologize for the interjection that could seem inappropriate, but that yes I consider indispensable to introduce the topic.

Because What you would say if when nailing a nail in a wall the hammer it hits with concentrated force on it thumb?

Let us imagine: "Oh… it seems that this inopportune and inconsiderate hammer has been flattened a finger… "

That is a story, my friend, because to the pain scream would be happened I don't know how many swearwords.

Would it be more than justified the insult truth?

But what it cannot tolerate (and it is responsibility of all) it is the proliferation of foolishness, lacks of respect, attacks to the chastity and…like call them some idelicaly: grossness that muddle our family life and the daily coexistence in the street, the work, or in any place.

It is that you are in the room of your house, seeing TV; go a musical program by the screen and him less than the singer says is that grabs a woman, and she makes him such or more which sews that she will respond making this or the other thing, and that if doesn't leave well "there you leave, bandit that you deserve that they make you… "

Everything accompanied by dances and expressions that would make blush the owner of a medieval tavern.

Then you should change channel, or to turn off the tele, alone because a bad-mannered is believed with the right of offending their good customs, with the consent (of what another form could be) of those that record or transmit such performances.

Another example: some youths traffic down the street without shirt, in shorts and each other are pursued, swearwords are screamed and attack to the environment, without anything neither nobody impedes it to him.

The call is that each one makes be worth the reason and demand the most elementary respect that the meditation, the moderation, the chastity and the good examples prevail. We will only then protect the intimate rights of the family, as fundamental cell of the society, anything of that which is quarreled with the happiness and the overflowing vitality of the years waiters.

Of sure, at the end, we would have a good musical repertoire to bequeath to the generations to come that would be kind, correct, courteous, and in the coexistence of every day, we would achieve a balance that would make our traffic for the most pleasant life for all.

In the information, offered by the doctor Leonardo Ramírez, director of the Provincial Center of Hygiene, Epidemiology and Microbiology (CPHEM), assures that the supreme objective consists on protecting most vulnerable people and with more risks of suffering of complications, although clarifies, it doesn't constitute this the one conceived against the Influenza TO H1N1 that after being brought to Cuba, like annonced Margaret Chan , directress of the OMS in her recent visit to the country, will be administered to who corresponds.

The beneficiaries now are those bigger than 75 years, the diabetics and asthmatic among the 20 and 24 years who suffer of chronic renal affections or other inmunodepresors, the boarding schools in Homes of Old men, Handicapped Physical and Psychiatric hospital, the members of the Houses of Grandparents, the workers linked to poultry and swinish works and those that face the sick persons day by day with breathing ailments.

For the flu that circulates in the moment, now will protect against a virus group, but not all neither against the Influenza TO H1N1. Of there the importance of insisting in the measures of prevention.

This vaccine type has been applied for several years, but now the significant thing resides in to remove of the road that entire suffering that can confuse and to diminish, also, the catarrhal symptom.

Without doubts, there is bigger perception of the risk and people go to the doctor more, something very favorable because is momentous the precocious diagnosis of the Influenza TO H1N1 and the opportune treatment. For that the surveillance is vital, if we keep in mind that the ailment person raisin to person, for the mucous ones, the hands that have had contact with the nose, the mouth or the sick person's saliva.

We have the human resources, materials and of medications to face these situations, but are highly expensive. Our State has never scanted the most minimum thing to preserve the human being's life, but we all have to contribute with our behavior.

“The Chinese that it is good, say advise that in the houses people have fishbowls, if it is possible eight red fish and one black. The first ones represent the positive energy, the good things that always have to be in more quantity that the negatives.”

“It was the only way with which I had to thank to this city that formed me as artist, where I took the first steps, even, in the patio of the Museum drew and the professor of painting, Héctor Molné, gave us the landscape class.

When are you far from Camagüey yearning?

“Perhaps it is a mixture of yearning and of nostalgy. To me come to mind the memories of the childhood that unquestionably when one surpasses the fifty crowd together a little.

Will you continue conserving the identity of the ancestros?

“I make honor to it in the investigation of my work since in my academic formation she had, mainly, a western and European basement for the teachings in the art schools, even, here when it was studied, the Greek statuary was imparted. But a moment arrives in that sit down the necessity to incorporate the elements of the Chinese culture and of the Asian in general.

“My work changes conceptually in a certain moment of my life among the years 1985 and 1986. It is really a very serious proposal and the ancestros for that time go leaving in the lienzos…I beging to study some Chinese to obtain a bigger coherence and understanding among what wanted, could make and the importance that I found in the Chinese calligraphy, in the videograms, pictograms and in its origins, even when I was in Japan and in other countries of Asia.

“From our terruño we can make very interesting things, because it stops our nationality the third component it is the Asian root; therefore I have taken it to me very seriously, I believe in that. For an artist the most important thing is to be convinced and to believe in that she makes and it is able to say.

“And more in these moments in that it is the year of the Buffalo of Earth. and I am Buffalo of Earth - because I was born in 1949 and Buffalo of Earth asks us to be very persevering, systematic and to work very firm from our point of view, it is the only way to leave ahead and it will mark us the rules to always try to be better and more alone with the work it will achieve.”

What did you find of new in this visit to Camagüey?

“Many things, mainly, if it is in the human aspect, people are much happier because the city is much prettier, in general sense; I found the rescue of that whole wonderful architecture, that attention to all the facades of the historical center and God willing, we could leave a little further on, because Camagüey deserves it and a tradition exists from a lifetime and it is necessary to rescue all that. Only the work will mark the steps.”

November eight are a doubly happy date for Flora Fong: completes six decades of life and second, happens awaiting becoming grandmother because Liang, her daughter, has painted in their stomach the image of a new creature that will bring family happiness.

The daughter and the son like a gift for her birthday-both are also artists - they maintain samples of their works in these days in galleries of the Cuban capital that has also welcomed Flora like one of their most brilliant guests.
