Uma Ilusão de Pobreza | Antonio Almeida | TEDxLagoadasPatas


thank you
one day san antonio in Azorean shit
I’m a citizen concerned about the sounds
how they let us be with what we want
to be
we can not be independent
the right to self-determination of
people and I believe that our games
we are a people
the subject I do not want to talk about
today it does not matter because I am
independent external inventor this has
important because the more 600 years of
colony for 50 years we have a
in the latter option, and in fact it is
I believe that we Azoreans and us today
we can be better
we can at least aspire to more in
Azores
we are so poor they make us think
I came across a discussion about the price of
projects on all projects
which are invariably
discussion begins the reaction of the
Who am I talking to?
how can we be the
we are so poor that we are going
to live as if it were one if the
forever because we are poor
as if there were the possibility
we aspired to be able to spend is
hours to discuss the definition of what is
we are poor or we are poor
it was a collective decision we are more
poor that the Portuguese are more
poor than others
actually we said we spent
Azores drinking water in an amount
that gives our livelihood to the
agriculture now even for energies
alternatives
we have jan
we have a rich fertile land that
allows
produce what we needed
make subsistence
we have a political and social peace
we have in a society that is based on
strong family relationships in a web
and this would be enough to ensure that
compared to the best for the people
of the world were not those classified as
match bonuses not poor men not
poor
but the idea that we are poor is a
constant in the Azorean culture almost
from the beginning but this is a case that is
common in almost all cases of
a European culture
Of course it’s a clue culture .
and this does not happen only in
actions that were once indigenous where
That
was imposed on blacks
posted for example like brazil
and of the United States in which the indigenous
who demanded their independence am
were the European peoples who colonized
these end of europe colonies will suffer
of this culture of extractive columnism
therefore we can add to the question
initial
we are poor we are poor in portugal
in Europe because in reality the question
One can also understand and we are poor.
because we have no resources and riches
own
obs per course our wealth and
our resources are shifted to
lisbon brussels
in fact we have a part of our
wealth and our economy that is
easily measurable to give some
For example, we know that
we produce about 30 percent of the
milk produced at portugal level
For example, we produce about 60% of
cheese produced at national level
we know that we produce a percentage
of canned tuna
we produce chan
thais gomes carne
we now have in this research is phase one
an economy of services related to
tourism and catering is dynamic and
But since vigorous but in particular the
we have another wealth very much to
form of wealth to which we have
area
I ask you to make an effort and visualize the
map of the atlantic north
we have the side we have in europe
on the other side are the United States and
some here in the middle are the sounds
in reality precede this this
reality
as is true for Portugal and the
Europe
the fact that their borders end
here in the Azores if you stay here in the flowers
and I do not expect on an old beach beach
of restelo in portugal
How much does it cost to Portugal and to
Europe
the fact that it’s born that we’re here
in this strategic zone is damaging
while val prostrated together by
example the fact that his southern border
frontier defense seresta that today
from now on just new york
about portugal
there is the fact of portugal in america called
what do you mean by that?
there are about 1.5 million citizens
portuguese in the united states 65 cent
are Azorean people are patrimony today
contextual and I am today because
some selections are only the senators
intellectual achievements mix of actors
internationally renowned football
when I go to portugal and to europe
the area of responsibility in the Azores
search and rescue that make up about
5 million square meters and that
represents about 95% of the area of
responsibility of portugal while
paulo to portugal and to europe and
exclusive economic zone of the azores
represents about one million meters
square and owns and that are of a
untold wealth
while val this economic zone
exclusive economic zone of that 55
exclusive of portugal gives to portugal
be the largest exclusive economic zone of
europe and the 11th exclusive economic zone
as the world returns to Portugal
the extension of the continental shelf in
Azores an invaluable calculable
and over which we have no sovereignty
over which we have no power
denounced we know some things
we know for example that each airplane that
in the partners of the Azores, another
other incalculable pays paid
Why think and pay portugal?
we know for example that he is a respected
there are people like respected teacher
josé filipe pinto socrática who said
that portugal at this moment only has three
the Azores and the sea and the
reality is that the sea grants them around
50 of this map has its actions
we also know that he started playing
News then Secretary of State of
the Portuguese government nuno manuel
pinto abreu said that the study of
Portuguese government estimate that around
200 seamounts in the Azores
continental shelf in the Azores should
obtain a value of about 60 thousand
million in the Portuguese economy 60
million per year
it’s a lot of money but in reality this
It ‘s very important for me
wealth does not wear out in the fact that we have
possibilities already 60 billion
per year by taking out ores from the
our continental shelf
I believe and I hope so it is that
our wealth is in being guardians
a north atlantic area an area
immense wealth of a
wealth in part unknown but
I do not see the anxiety of support
EUR 60 million because there is a
wealth and about which we have a
immense responsibility in the Azores but
not only here our wealth does not happen
only by what we produce and
we sell our wealth is
especially in what we are a
where we are and this I just do not know
that if we are not having it denounced the
immense and not sold but can be
stolen
we are huge we have an immense wealth
we have an incalculable responsibility
we can not accept that he wanted to or not
wealth we represent is
moved to other centers for
lisbon on them
we have to prepare for it to be
underground and for responsible
take on visas party lends wealth
I’m still talking to two friends.
my very worried about who we are and
where are we talking that for this is
I need everyone to take their
responsibilities as an individual
I as a tennis player I can not
built their independents if I
person is not independent if I
I personally do not take my
responsibilities
therefore this project which can be the
this wealth that we are
need every Azorean to take their
responsibilities
thank you so much
