Compromís demands a fair financing and to recover the identity in its celebration of October 9

A pesar de que el tiempo amenzaba lluvia, la coalición Compromís per Dénia mantuvo su acto de celebración del 9 d’Octubre en la capital de la comarca, que reunió en la plaza Jaume I a medio centenar de personas que quisieron celebrar junto a ellos el día de los valencianos.

The group's spokesman, Rafa Carrió, was responsible for introducing the act and parliaments. He is according to Carrió «es día de celebrar nuestras raíces, nuestra cultura y nuestro territorio». Carrió thanked the people who last May put their trust in them because that «se transforma en una grandísima responsabilidad».

Pere Mayor, former Secretary General of UPV, the BLOC, Ontinyet councilor and deputy in Les Corts, welcomed the fact that times have changed and govern their training both in towns like Denia and Les Corts. Still, he regretted that there are many things that can not be controlled even within the government: a Europe that does not work for other people and for financial and banking institutions.

As for the State, Mayor reported that the inhabitants of Valencia do not receive the equivalent of what they bring to the national level. Regarding the entry of the new government in the Generalitat Valenciana, Mayor explained that «es imposible que se puedan pagar los más de 40.000 millones de deuda, y tendrá que pasar a ser una deuda del estado por la falta de financiación que hemos sufrido».

Without solving the debt problem, and receiving money received from the central government, explained Mayor, it will be difficult to maintain the current model of society. Mayor called for a reflection on who we are and where we are to know where you have to work and improve the situation.

At the end of his speech, Mayor had a memory for militant Paula Espí, who died a few weeks ago, which aroused the excitement and applause of the public. Thanks to people like her, she said, «mucha gente ha trabajado desinteresadamente por este proyecto».

Then he spoke the councilor of the City of Dénia Eva Ronda, who made a much more personal speech. Ronda recalled his childhood living in Valencia talking and singing traditional songs and living the most deeply rooted traditions of the Valencian culture, facts «que han hecho que hoy por hoy sea como soy, y eso lo valoraré toda la vida».

That is why Ronda asked «no tener miedo a decir que somos valencianos, a nuestra cultura, a nuestras tradiciones». Ronda «ahora es el momento del cambio, ya está bien de beneficios para unos pocos, de políticas elitistas, estamos cansados. Ahora es el momento de recuperar nuestra identidad y luchar por nuestros valores».

To finish his speech, Eva Ronda read some words of Vicent Andrés Estelles: «Allò que va és la consciència de no ser res si no s’és poble».

To the tune of Muixeranga interpretada por la Colla La Xareta, tres niños ofrecieron un ramo de flores a la imagen de Jaume I que puso fin a la celebración del 9 d’Octubre del grupo Compromís.

Statue removed the laurel wreath that had placed the City

With pretty unstable weather until the last minute not the plaza was prepared to celebrate the act of Comrpomís for fear of rain. In the 11 morning he should start all over, but it was at that time when militants began to arrive and councilors to prepare the act.

At that time, at the foot of the statue of Jaume I had a laurel wreath that had been placed from the city of Dénia as an offering, a crown that militants removed and placed back to the statue to celebrate his act.
