The Lost Rainbow (II)

Apparently, we are no longer talking about mere majority or even dominance here. The reality seems to fit an absolute Tigrinya hegemony and near-total absence of the Non-Tigrinya groups from public policy processes…In all of the cases cited in this article (and dozens of others for which we do not have space here) the disparity, in terms of public employment and participation in public policy processes, between the Tigrinya and Non-Tigrinya groups, is evident. The ratio is roughly 10:1 in favor of the Tigrinya (when the ratio in the larger population is supposed to be 1:1). Click here for the article’s link.

 
PFDJ Gearing Up to display their “popular base” PDF Print E-mail

 The PFDJ authorities are expected to use the planned rally to show the EU and UN that they are still popular among Eritreans. However, they are facing public pressure from within their own membership in the Diaspora.

PFDJ Gearing Up to display their “popular base”

 

As indicated in our previous Arkokabay news brief, the PFDJ is busy these days holding seminars and mobilising Eritreans using every skill and tactic the organisation possess to lure Eritreans to a rally planned for 15th February 2010. This rally is being called to protest against the UN Security Council Resolution 1907, which imposed on the ruling PFDJ regime sanctions affecting the movement of PFDJ officials, freezing assets and arms embargo.

 

Arkokabay.com has also learned that Eritrean Pro-Democracy and civil society movements are holding intensive consultations to counter the PFDJ movement in Geneva (UN Headquarters) and Strasbourg (EU Parliament). These forces consider the UNSC Resolution has come about as a direct result of the Eritrean regime’s repressive domestic and misguided regional and foreign policies, and that the only means to end Eritrea’s problems and isolation is not by challenging the UNSC Resolution, but by putting more pressure on the PFDJ regime to change course, free the thousands of prisoners of conscience, end the indefinite military conscription of young Eritreans, allow the return of Eritrean refugees stranded in Sudanese refugee camps since 1967 to their ancestral lands, and introduce constitutional democratic governance. 

 

The PFDJ authorities are expected to use the planned rally to show the EU and UN that they are still popular among Eritreans. However, they are facing public pressure from within their own membership in the Diaspora. In a well attended meeting organised by the Eritrean embassy in the UK, held in London on 17th January 2010, questions of human rights, introduction of Democratic system of governance and an end to the indefinite incarceration of young Eritreans in military trenches were loudly raised. The PFDJ officials kept assuring the attendees that they will respond to their demands positively, and that those kept in the army beyond the official terms of 18 months will be compensated. However, many observers consider these pledges as nothing but the same old PFDJ deceptive tactics that people no longer entertain.
