From all the news of the last week, we have chosed the next ones:
The
American Congress frustrates the operation of purchasing the terminals
of six harbours as a part of a business of the United Arab
Emirates. Despite
that the Emirates are an ally of the United States in the fight against
the terrorism, the political and nationalist aspects have prevailed on
the strictly business, thing that has avoided to the company that made
the best offer to controll the harbours. Great Britain and the childl poverty. One
out of each four British children is officially poor, the double than
in Germany and five times more than in Denmark. Blair has managed
to reduce the poverty and also the childlike, but is still far from the
goals he proposed. It is so negative for Great Britain in comparison
with orther European countries, in other themes very prosperous.
High abstention to the elections of the principal to the Catalonian public universities.
In
the most recent election, in the UPF, the participation has been of the
18,47%. Also in the other Universities there was a high level of
abstention. It seems clear that this elective procedure is not the best
solution, as is deduced of the little interest that causes the
system. TVE announces the dismissal of 3.133 workers, the 39% of the staff. The
plan presented by the SEPI (State Societyof Industrial Participations)
to the UGT and CCOO representatives foresees this important reduction
with drops negotiated and early retirements. The RTVE debt is of
7.551 million euro (more than one trillion of the old pesetas).
The central government wants to end up with this public entity working
way, has been bad managed and has not adapted to the changing
realities. Greenspan writes his memories
For
eighteen years was the Federal Reserve president and he has compromised
with the Penguin Press editorial to publish his memories. The
contract is of 7,15 million euro, quantity only surpassed recently by
the work My Life of the former president Clinton, that charged ten
million dollars. It is said that, for the book edition, Greenspan
will include the contribution of one of the best journalists of The
Wall Street Journal. Less farmers, but richer. Since
1986 the agrarian population in Spain has been reduced halfway but the
income has benn duplicated. The main driving force has been the
PAC (Political Agrarian Common) of the EU. The high prices of the
PAC, according to La Caixa Service of Studies, are responsible for the
25% of the total of the agrarian income, a percentage that is elevated
at 50% with the perception of indirect aids (prices subsidized of the
water, fuels, etc.) The aids of the PAC will be reduced from the
2007.
