  Flak Magazine: RTP Portugal, 09-04-01
Portugal, you'd be forced to admit, is a country of ornately costumed marchers in one endless parade that occasionally spawns small islands of structured dance, like some kind of fragment of the Mandelbrot parade.
Perhaps it has to do with Portugal's importance on the world stage, waning since the Spanish domination of the late 16th century.
We know the goat is evil not because I am the sort of writer who thinks that any story about an animal is improved by assigning it malign motivations, but because the goat is shown in lurid blue lighting and always appears with ominous background music.

Portugal is located at South-West extreme of Europe and consists of the mainland and the islands: the Azores (Açores) and Madeira islands.
The management of cultural affairs in Portugal is divided between central governmental institutions affiliated to the ministries, directly involved in the field and local executive bodies charged with applying the global national policy, but also enjoying a degree of independence in matters of finance and decision-making.
Such growth is due to Portugal’s entry to the EEC in 1986, which changed life in all levels in the country, while culture was particularly affected.

At the end of 2002, Portugal's complicated and often overlapping system of collective bargaining is highly topical, as the government's proposal for labour law reform (in the form of a new Labour Code) seeks to overhaul some of the existing bargaining mechanisms.
In September 2002, Portugal's two main trade union confederations presented their demands for 2003, at a time when the government is seeking to control the public deficit against the background of a sluggish economy, and when a fierce battle is underway over proposals for labour law reform.
Official statistics on collective bargaining and industrial action in Portugal in the first half of 2002, published in August 2002, show that there was a steep fall in the number of agreements concluded, and that the number of strikes rose.

 Athens 2006
This year Portuguese broadcaster RTP decided to revert to a full scale national final, which unfortunately came up with a result which wasn't to the satisfaction of audience who watched the show in the Lisbon Conference Centre or on television on March 10th.
Deciding to go with a 50/50 televote/jury mix, the result was a tie, and RTP rules dictated that the favourite of the jury went to Athens.
Along with their success in Portugal came the interest from other countries, such as Canada, Belgium and South Africa, in their music, while "Basta Um Sorriso" was chosen to be the second single and second hit.
