ICAPP THE FIRST TO THE CONQUEST OF MARCH É INT É INTERIOR

Saturday, January 29, 2009, the ICAPP, Initiative Committee for alternative political project, invited the press room, Remy Nainsouta at Pointe-à-Pitre, to present his DRAFT STATUTE FOR THE EVOLUTION GUADELOUPE. Despite having benefited from previous regional elections to be known, we can say that the event Saturday was the true founding principle of this new party, led by Alain LKPiste Pleasure, which has made its new office developments hobbyhorse.

deadlock

In the preamble to the draft the ICAPP provides some figures on the status of production Guadeloupe, which show the impasse in which we arrived. Thus we learn that the production of bananas in 1978 amounted to 145 000 tonnes, is now reduced to 50,000 tonnes, and similarly, it produces only 50,000 tonnes of sugar, while production in 1967 exceeded the 185 000 tonnes of fish production covers only 50% of our needs, because "imports encouraged by free trade and dumping." No indicator suggests that in the present state of things, this trend could be reversed, like the 39 000 hectares of farmland disappear fast pace of 1000 hectares per year. Another key sector in Guadeloupe, tourism has seen the number of its hotels decrease by 20% in five years. The result of this economic collapse: a dizzying rate for unemployment particularly affecting 40% of those under 30 years!

At the same time, the ICAPP denouncing the dramatic increase in indirect taxes "invisible but not painless," without distinction concerning all levels of society, such as the granting or sea grant sea area, the fuel tax (CST) or VAT.

Free trade is the law of the jungle

Many people consider the current situation intolerable and share reviews developed by the left parties but see no serious alternative to the current system. All credit is the ICAPP have developed a real political and economic agenda based on sound knowledge of both the local reality of Guadeloupe and French and European legal texts.

Thus the Cippa hand to "conquer the market," to borrow the title of the book of Alain Pleasure, published in 2008 editions Nestor. For the ICAPP, Guadeloupe, which for its consumption, is now dependent on more than 80% of imports, has no choice, she must leave the European framework. This is especially true if it wants access to food sovereignty. Do not see this as a sign of a downturn Guadeloupe but the quest for what should be a priority for all people, whatever. On the food, the ICAPP has therefore proposed leaving the European framework asphyxiation Guadeloupe, boost economic activity in agriculture, ensure reasonable prices to consumers, dignified wages for farmers, preserve farmland, create a food industry for the conversion of some of our products and preserve the environment. Everyone understands that this is actually not possible in a system of free trade where small Guadeloupe have any protection for the same customs status as 27 European countries some heavily industrialized, others the cost of labor very low. The ICAPP is proposing to create a common market with Martinique and French Guiana and adopt a "tariff Guadeloupe" which in each case, surcharge or not imported products to protect production Local [1] .

Heaven protectionists!

It is therefore clearly of protectionism, a word that had almost become a dirty word but that appears to countries such as Guadeloupe, an unavoidable necessity. It's a bit, if we take the example of boxing, as if were allowed to fight on the same ring, with a weight of a truck, an adult against a child under the pretext that to establish categories distort the game ... We immediately understood the absurdity of such reasoning. In the text presented Saturday morning, the ICAPP also exploring other avenues of development, such as the conquest of energy independence with renewable energy development, exploitation of mineral and biological resources of the sea, the real wealth tomorrow with no shortage of Guadeloupe, the launch of a capital works program, the pulse of domestic tourism which would benefit Guadeloupe through rental vouchers valid restaurants and hotels in Guadeloupe, etc..

Master home

To achieve these ambitious goals, the ICAPP has opted for an autonomy status based on a sharing of competence with French state, along the lines of what has just been awarded St Bartholomew. Thus the ICAPP means that the new community that calls for, manages fifteen new skills, such as taxation, the customs, energy, education, etc.., while the state retains seven major skills such as national defense, to name a single example.

status which the ICAPP think for Guadeloupe is the Country and Overseas Territories (OCT) [2] "Guadeloupe exempting the constraints of the European internal market." "The Treaty of Lisbon (EU treaty) provides a clause-gateway for passing an outermost region to a status of territory from overseas. "So it would evolve very clearly, but while remaining within the bosom of the French republic, taking into account that the constitutional and community provide this scenario.

To finance the operation of these new powers, the ICAPP intends to rely on the principle of compensation expenses. Indeed, the booklet sold by the ICAPP specifies that "any net increase in costs resulting for the new community of powers transferred is accompanied by the concurrent payment by the state of financial compensation for the normal exercise of these powers. "

An audible message?

In my previous article, in response to a paper Mika Unleashed, I explained that separatism was not the only path to anti-colonial struggle. Maybe some people have thought I looking to play on words. This is not the proposed project today by the ICAPP is the demonstration if necessary. These Guadeloupe and Guadeloupean, who understood that the present status, far from granting protection to their citizens, making it impossible for any bounce out of the slump in which the sinking inexorably Guadeloupe. Their proposal has the merit at least to relaunch the debate on the future of Guadeloupe. In continuation of the LKP, they offer a reading grid to analyze the current situation and tools to try to get out. We can discuss many issues, such as the need anchorage in the Caribbean region alone would exceed the Guiana and Martinique, silence on the concentration of wealth in the hands of a handful of profits, etc.. ; The fact remains that the potential of this project, its viability, its realism and skill of those who drafted it, deserves consideration.

However, when I asked how the Creole Dog ICAPP avoid failure also had bitter as that known by Martinique with the overwhelming rejection of the transition section 74, the only response was made to me " we will work hard for it "A bit like Nicolas Sarkozy would have said:" The French do not want my reform? We will restate them. " Can we blame mainly ICAPP is not thought to have an alternative in its own way of doing politics. The press conference Saturday was eloquent on the shortcomings of the ICAPP on the matter: the method already: a proposal drawn up by experts as a beautiful glossy brochure, read the press on site and sold 2 euros. Certainly, in a second step, the ICAPP plans to visit in almost all towns in Guadeloupe, we begin told by Three Rivers, but he would not take the people involved in the development of the project company and let herself understand the urgent need for changes in status in order to achieve? The ICAPP could then offer his expertise in the area. One may wonder whether the presentation of the statutory evolution as an objective in itself, is able to attract really Guadeloupe. Especially as the seriousness of the members of ICAPP, it is an undeniable asset enhancing its credibility when it becomes a default communicate. A formal presentation too, lack of charisma of its spokesmen, not helping to get the message.

Birth of a new front anti-capitalist?

That said, it is likely that the ICAPP will not be alone in this approach and is joined in particular by the PCG, including the Secretary-General Felix Flemin, had made the trip to the bathroom Nainsouta; Flemin who in the name GRE recently called for a broad front anticolonial precisely lead to a statutory change that the Communist Party wants Guadeloupe since 1956, as recalled Bernard Bany, vice president of ICAPP, in his presentation. Questioned on this point by Chien Creole, Alain Pleasure responded that the ICAPP was working on a merger with other organizations, including the GRE.

Without being exclusive, the proposal of ICAPP is called to feed the debate in Guadeloupe, which is seeking. Want him to be at least heard.
