I want to talk about Mondoñedo and
I find very comfortable here in this
tribune that steps several times to
talk about the economic development of
area for those who are not here
call mariña lucense and the last time
that I was here was to read in the
pages us feirantes de álvaro
cunqueiro when felipe told me about
come here to talk about resilience of
entrance to me it came to my mind
engineering concept say of residence
by own deformation but the concept
engineering residence is energy
of training that can be recovered
important this of a shaped body
when the effort that caused the
Obviously pointed deformation of
certain ideas that I could say but
will go deeper into the concept
and found that the residence is the
ability to overcome adversity or the
ability of human beings to
adapt positively to situations
adverse
evidently mondoñedo has gone through
adverse situations or is happening
still for adverse situations when
arrived was a municipality of 11 thousand
inhabitants at this time has little
more than 4,000 was a municipality with a
buoyant timber industry and this
have closed all the
facilities for the treatment of
wood although you have seen that there
large forests with many eucalyptus
but the transforming force is lacking
have a seminar that leads to have 300
students at this time does not have any
now there are enthusiastic people trying to
seize the opportunity that position
is not present due to difficulties
I can say that the mayor is one of
the people who with more enthusiasm and
that you’re trying to take advantage of everything
that can try to convert the
happy old people wait for a convent and
today is an auditorium
but up there what
the mount of another convent that is wanted
turn into a hotel or take advantage of
camino de santiago that passes through here or
take advantage of another series of things to me are
it occurred to me that there is something more
and let me still a little behind a year
They have been in Europe for a long time
time when the invasion of
Norman the father pepisco was in san
Mondoñedo Kingfisher relatively close
where we have gone and where
We have been on the beach to give lectures
of that there was a bishop says that comes in
inside the legend is not there is not
historically proven sangonzalo that
when the invasions of the Normans
he was put to pray and whenever a
ovation shipwreck a Norman ship to
In spite of everything they should not have
too much trust in the relationships of
san gonzalo
if it existed and closed at the headquarters
here that then I wore bigger day and
since then mondoñedo by the century
ten centuries 11 begins to be in the
Map
I will be in a very powerful way in
the map in the 15th century when the
marshal but brown of cela rebels
against isabel de castilla isabel de
castilla commands to execute it but to last
time he grants forgiveness and sends a
ministry to mondoñedo so that
really suspend the execution what
what happens is that there were a couple of
canons with names and surnames that
is perfectly documented in some
recently published book that does not
they were friends of the marshal
brown and the van are going to stop the
emissary on a bridge that is very close
where we have eaten many of you
you are the mills that is called or point of
paso or aponte that in Galician is feminine
aponte does not pass or tempo is another moment
in what is really
on the map a hundred years later or so
cervantes to pay homage to
bishop pleases
According to writer Ramón Loureiro
quote in the prologue from pp to the bishop of
mondoñedo by the functions that was not
very typical of his set of his trade but
there is that the bishop of
mondoñedo in the prologue of Quixote that
all you can see what the boy heysel
let your hands play world no longer
is on the map a long time ago but
many people probably about
all the young people who do not know what will
the marshal by the brown of cela ni san
Gonzalo and maybe they have not even
read the quixote or has skipped the pro
You can mountain it must be on the map
and he has put the fog and let’s see
how can we take the opportunity
thinking about this I remembered a fact
what happened in the year 1973
some were not born on 16 here
in the year 1973 after the war of the
Yom Kippur the third war that
organizes among the Israelites the
Palestinians the first great
oil crisis and the second would be
already with him a few years later
got Khomeini as a result of
that first oil crisis europe
It trembles and cold weather because there is no
heating oil for the car
heating and a series of
measures to reduce consumption of
oil one of them in spain of the
network that was not made at that time
much case but one of them is the
Change of schedule is when it occurs
the change of schedule in spring and in
autumn
I was then a young engineer who
they were in renfe of age to deserve and
there we have a problem and
how the problem is solved the problem
is
when it passes back an hour
with trains
the owners can not leave before the
life time established in the
itinerary of the station
everything is the decision that seems to us how
goes to those of us who were not involved
directly the management of the movement
but I was at that moment
strategic planning
we think it’s very simple but the
truth is that it continues to be done for
trains an hour where at the station
where I arrived with that reason they were made
several things but there was a person
because simultaneously we in that
we had a story contest
short that was called antonio machado and
I say again how I was a young man
engineer of deserving age because
they carried almost all things and I
they named jury of this award and I take
a while that explains with many
details that had made a small
station on the line to take advantage of that
time he said he did not stop
never there was going to stop for an hour
they set up a series of parties for a
series of words or provoke octopus to
Feira everything what you want until traitor
than these to entertain during that
time to these gentlemen this made me think
nor in the fog
Yesterday we came from Madrid
we have left the highway was not necessary
because of the fog but where it is left
usually when there is fog and and no
is passed at that time is passed by
from mondoñedo we have gotten ourselves
directly to mondoñedo
but there was a big curve where if not
we would have taken that curve to enter
in fear we would have gone by the
valley and we would not have made it by hand
and it occurs to me that the head curves and
a little higher and this I say for
the mindonienses who are here and for
the enterprising people of Mondoñedo to the
of tourism for
the restorers have to put some
great posters and offer the big
opportunities that we have does not reach for
have a good time in Mondoñedo
taking advantage of the fact that we have been
lowered here
that is the message that I want left and
that tomorrow I will repeat it when the
mayor because I think you have to
take this opportunity for the
development of mondoñedo
there are many things we have the cathedral is
is finishing the museum of coke it the
street confirmed to olé we have already been
until tomorrow we have the mills where
we have been eating that is called here
poetically the venencia world nor the pse
because it does not serve fixed that has a
lots of streams and channels all
sides there are a lot of things that we will see
fear we have the diocesan museum
the tate role museum and all that there is
do it and if we can also do in
the peaks a good hotel will be possible
bring people and make them happen here
some time because people passing by
by Mondoñedo falls in love with Mondoñedo and
go back to mondoñedo
thank you very much
[Applause]
