@Urgent report about Nishinari park tent community!
Comrades;
Saluton from osaka, japanese islands. by the way, I report this msg
about crisis of 75 homeless residents living in Nishinari park.
recently, osaka city authorities planed to build some underground
constructions
on some parts of Nishinari park. however, city authorities(park
officers) try to plan
to evict the homeless comrades living in all parts of this park.
they say "we will provide you to be able to get welfare or something
more better living. so, you must receive our offers." however, city
authorities have always
taken many lies and have always done many betrayal for 5 years all over
the city!
for whose "more better living" are they? their shelters(like a jail)
and self-helping centers have led many homeless comrades to more worse
living
for past 5 years. many ex-homeless comrades have been forced to cut
their limited welfares,
and have been forced to throw out their room. then, they live in the
streets/parks now.
city authorities do not care but threat the ex-homeless people! they
always threaten
the ex-homeless people, and shout "work! work! you should get some
job!".(we are not sheep!)
*report from Nishinari park
on years end of 2004, after selfish abolition of the Nishinari
Emergency Shelter
(like a jail), osaka city authorities(especially park officers) have
tried to begin
to sweep away the 75 homeless comrades. on 10 June 2005, they tried to
call 75
homeless comrades to participate their explanation-meeting on 14 June
2005 by their papers.
on the morning, many homeless comrades and some activists complained
about the selfish
doing of park officers against the 75 homeless comrades living in
Nishinari park.
and also, we asked them to go back to their office. however, park
officers and their boss
named ABE rejected our voices, and exclaimed "today, we come here to
inform the 75 residents
about our explanation meeting for the plan to carry out the
constructions." again and
again like a parrot. for over 2 hours, we and officers like the parrots
became violent
arguments. they said like that: "this construction plan do not concern
other people.",
"we would love to explain the plan of construction on this area.",
"about welfares,
on 14 June, we will explain the details to the people that will
participate to
the explanation-meeting, so, i must not explain it at all.", "we must
hurry up to carry out
the plans of construction!" no kidding! park officers rejected sincerely
dialog to 75
residents. also today! on after noon, we decided to bring the protest
words to the park
office(this park office is a small branch of
Tennouji-doushokubutu-kouen-park office.).
in front of park office, we tried to hand over the protest words to
city authorities,
officers strongly rejected to receive it:"we need not receive your
protest words. there
are no reasons. we do not think that you are the person that we must
talk with."
after about 2 hours, they selfishly went back to their small office.
...officers left
behind a protest words ON THE GROUND. even Boss of Abe did not try to
pick it up at all!!
for a while, officers came to the park with their informations for
their explanation
meeting. when they set a few information papers on the fences, we
complained their evil
actions. and we defeated them. An officer did the performance that he
stumbled and
which fell down. this foxy officer tried to entrap us as an suspect of
injury.
anyway, on 14 June 2005, we will smash their explanation-meeting as
making an excuse.
also in osaka, effort of dialog is important. however, unfortunately, in
most of cases,
dialog to the city authorities is in vain. for, they reject any opposite
side voices
for them. look the osaka city's website, they do not show their e-mail
address. officers
are strongly afraid of complaints, and would love to wipe any
complaints/voices out!
yes, there is no democracy process for the people in osaka city. fake
democracy is fascism.
Comrades, we really ask you to send protest mails(show a sample on
below) or ask you to organize a protest action
to the branches of osaka city(please show below) or concerning to osaka
city(Sharp,
Sumitomo, Panasonic...etc). thanx. Vi venkos. Ni venkos! NO PASARAN!! la
batalo continuos.
in solidarity & in struggle.(rebel_JILL)
--------------
those are the facts of city authorities' "merciful
politics"/"hospitality of osaka city".
because aims of city authorities and their subjects are...just sweeping
homeless
comrades away from public spaces FOR THEIR SELFISH EVENTS.(WORKS NOT
CIRCUSES!)
these "merciful politics" are Indulgence for their evils. on the
contrary, city officers
have illegally gotten incredible wage from public money for many years!
YA BASTA! also in osaka, there are no human rights for homeless comrades.
on 14 June 2005, city authorities(park officers) will plan to hold an
explanation meeting
for underground construction. disguised wolves will plan to fox 75
homeless comrades
to evict. if we all will receive their explanation meeting tomorrow,
city authorities will
be willing to defeat our tent communities, then, they will destroy the
lives of 75 homeless
comrades. further, the terrible influence will be spread to all tent
villages/homeless
communities on the public spaces in osaka...and other cities in japanese
islands. WE,
homeless comrades living in Nishinari park, other areas homeless
comrades and homeless
liberation activists/soldiers in osaka, will fight against the tyranny &
its law. also this
struggle will be hard one. shamelessly, big dull trade union(the RENGOU),
"Buraku-Kaihou-Doumei" and Scum of NPOs support this "beautification" on
the Nishinari park.
so, urgently we would love to ask your solidarity.
if you can, i strongly ask you to protest the branches of osaka city
directly
(they have branches in Chicago, San Francisco, Singapore, Dusseldorf,
Paris)
