We Are Lorca. Somos Lorca. Earthquake One Year After.


Today I do not publish any photos. Only the logo for solidarity: WeareLorca (SomosLorca). After a year (a year ago from today, the fatal earthquake that occurred in Lorca, Region of Murcia), all it has done is to remove the debris. 1200 homes have been demolished, nearly 8000 people are still unable to return to their homes. Now, only 5 houses have begun to rebuild, but have recently been approved 180 licenses for reconstruction. A year and Lorca's neighbors have seen that both the Government of Spain as the Government of the Region of Murcia, have delayed the money. It will be the crisis.
I hope now the formalities are faster.
Here you can visit the SomosLorca website, where you can find different ways to cooperate with Lorca and its inhabitants.
Here, what I published last year: 1 and 2

Una verdadera vergüenza que un año después la mayoría de los afectados siga en tan precaria situación. Está visto que en cualquier situación de este tipo, los políticos se hacen la foto y el pueblo se queda en las tiendas de campaña de manera indefinida, siempre igual. En fin, enhorabuena por el recordatorio, ha sido un bello gesto. Nuestros blogs también pueden ser pequeñas ventanas de protesta y denuncia social.

Un saludo,

Jose
