00:03We lived from the coca. That was the production that we had.
00:07We supported the Conejos, because we didn't look at other options of work,
00:12until the government came to promise us other things.
00:15We wanted to connect ourselves.
00:34After the FARC came out, it was very healthy, very free,
00:38a good environment to live here.
00:42We were aware that with the coca, we caused a perjuice to the society.
00:46We looked at that a lot of people were losing through the crops
00:50and the coca that we did.
00:53So we welcomed us to that program,
00:55looking at that they gave us good options.
00:57We had some projects, some very good programs,
01:00which were very tentative for us.
01:02That's why we welcomed us to that program.
01:05We did it voluntarily.
01:07We came out of our crops,
01:09which were our only sustenance,
01:11the coca trees, we took off,
01:14we left nothing, waiting for us to see what we were going to give.
01:17At that moment, I was very disappointed with this accomplishment.
01:20I'm not saying that maybe I can grow back,
01:22but I want to do it at least to make my effect on my life,
01:27my life as such.
01:28We were eating, we didn't have where to put more hands,
01:31it was of those crops.
01:33We welcomed us to that program
01:34and now in those moments,
01:35what happens?
01:36They don't give us any solution.
01:38They gave us a payment,
01:39we also eat, we have family, we have expenses.
01:42So that conversation already ended,
01:45and we need now what to put us to work,
01:47or how to put us to work
01:49for us to have a solution for life.
01:52They gave us some cows.
01:54I'm waiting for more than a year,
01:56and they didn't give me them.
01:57At the moment, I'm waiting for them.
01:59I got a second SIM,
02:01I got a second SIM,
02:02I got a mortgage,
02:03I got a mortgage,
02:04but I don't have how to work.
02:06I'm waiting for them to collaborate,
02:09that they can help me,
02:11so I can help them,
02:12I can help them,
02:14so I hope the government can help me.
02:16I'm willing to save the bank,
02:19I'm willing to save money,
02:19that money to go to our living country.
02:22But until the moment,
02:23we don't have any solutions.
02:25We don't have power,
02:27we don't have a waste of water.
02:29We don't have a safe living house.
02:31So we're waiting for more.
02:33We are going to attend to the peace process.
02:37We esperar more from the government
02:39to receive this right now.
02:41We don't account for that.
02:42We want to work.
02:43We don't want to go back to a coca plant, we don't want to go back to war, we don't
02:48want more violence.
02:49We also want the war, we want peace.
03:13Thank you very much.
