00:00Venezuela held the fourth national public consultation in which various communal projects were chosen for the benefit of local communes.
00:07From the state of Tashira, our colleague Michelle Ramirez has the details.
00:13From the early hours of the morning, this electoral celebration began in the state of Tashira, in the southwest of the country.
00:20This fourth public consultation was marked by active and leading participation from citizens, who came out to choose their prioritized projects.
00:40Today we are gathered here specifically in Rivera's Del Torres for this electoral celebration, where we are presenting seven communal projects.
00:48The people themselves will take part and choose the major project that will help address the problems in our communes.
00:57We are here in the process of consolidating popular power.
01:02This is an exercise in democracy in which we ourselves decide which projects can best help the commune.
01:08Youth made their presence felt in this electoral event.
01:12We are here in the municipality of Cardenas participating in the fourth public consultation.
01:19One of the projects under consideration is the reconstruction of a new wall for the Antonio José Sucur National High School
01:24and the Miguel Otero Silva National School, which were damaged on June 13th of last year.
01:30Through this fourth public consultation, we seek to restore the proper functioning of our institution.
01:34Among the proposals presented was the repair and beautification of the facades and infrastructure of educational institutions.
01:47The project we are requesting right now is the construction of the school wall at the high school.
01:53Because our children and young people are currently affected by this situation, classes have been divided,
01:58they are no longer studying there.
02:01One group is studying here, and another is studying down at the health clinic.
02:05That is why we urgently need this project.
02:10More than 1,500 projects were chosen across more than 200 communes in the Tashira region,
02:18highlighting the popular organization of the Venezuelan people.
02:21With this new act of participation, participatory and leading democracy that characterizes the country is evident,
02:28along with the new model of popular self-government focused on building a true communal state.
