FREE In-depth report - The Legislature - Bolivia Congress may also meet for extraordinary sessions to debate specific bills if requested by the executive and if favored by a majority of its members. In 1986 Congress indicted former dictator General Luis García Meza Tejada (1980-81); in early 1989, he was being tried in absentia by the Supreme Court of Justice.

Retrenched workers protest outside the NUMSA national congress : IMC-SA The National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (NUMSA) was opening its 7th national congress at Gallagher Estate, Midrand, when news of the arrival of the retrenched Samancor workers ruffled the feathers of union officials more accustomed to making demands than receiving them. They explained that the national office couldn’t be held accountable for the situation of former Samancor workers that the regional office should have attended to. The decision by the SRWCC to petition the NUMSA congress follows years of reluctance by the union to intervene and its silence to a letter of invitation to meet. southafrica.indymedia.org /news/2004/09/6663.php

International Trotskyism-Bolivia It is clear, however, that contact between the Bolivian Trotskyites and the International was at best tenuous—since Pierre Naville, in his report to the Founding Congress referred to the Bolivian affiliate as the Bolshevik-Leninist Group, although no organization of that name existed at the time in Bolivia. The program endorsed the orthodox Trotskyist position that in a country like Bolivia the tasks of the democratic revolution could only be carried out by a dictatorship of the proletariat, which at the same time would take the first steps toward building socialism. In retrospect Guillermo Lora felt that two of these were of particular importance: that over the Popular Assembly's demand that the Miners Federation be given majority control over the state mining industry, and that over the establishment of a single national university, also under majority control of trade union representatives. www.marxists.org /history/etol/writers/alex/works/in_trot/bolivia.htm

BBC NEWS Americas Text: Bolivia leader's resignation letter As I submit my resignation for the consideration of the honourable National Congress, I do so with the profound conviction that its acceptance is no longer consistent with the norm that a democratically elected president cannot be removed through outlawed mechanisms of pressure and violence. If that were the issue, my resignation, which I am placing at the consideration of the honourable National Congress, should be enough to solve the nation's problems. With freedom and dignity, the president of the Republic is the symbol of this unity amid national diversity, a diversity that must be a source of pride, not of conflict and violence. news.bbc.co.uk /2/hi/americas/3202804.stm

IMC India - Indian National Congress Analysis Indian National Congress of late is degrading day by day and my prediction is that they will lose elections in Rajasthan,Madhya pradesh and Delhi well as their only decision in Gujarat was right so they will win in Gujarat. Their analysing of their party by the AICC is not up to the mark and my view is that Madam Sonia should broaden her views by not only the leaders around her but the leaders much capable then them basically the loksabha members, or the leaders with mass support. india.indymedia.org /en/2002/07/1840.shtml
