leisure I was only a norm of

response team was a person

more within distress chains and that

He did his job his life as they say

young people wanting to do things

well to be professional and mainly

by a bow for a spirit that

[Music]

exciting to wake up in the area

center-south devastating earthquake leaves the

month

this is a special report from cnn on

Spanish

thank you very much for continuing together

to us at that hour of the morning in

this special coverage about the

earthquake that shook at 3 34

minutes of this morning

now there must be an earthquake with

a destructive potential and with also

of how it is possible for a tsunami that

The aforementioned has already been ruled out

principle that transmission of the the

conception is the one that at the moment

reported as the most damaged and

time has also been 11 aftershocks

then the risk of 8.5 degrees

I have exposed neither a friend of mine receive the

hit harder

between people in a collapsed building

rescue teams work in the

collapsed building in conception

first reports talk about what would

survivors there was a minute later

of occurred the earthquake building already

I was on the ground I was collapsed

here firemen starts to climb between

them the lieutenant or I just lamented

very much smoke and samoa I feel very

tired center regulator for lieutenant

second site in Spanish not only

within an hour as we are we have

in prat with beef fraternity

for the conditions and the tipitos for

one of the sides and they found in the

inside

at this moment firemen this set

I work with strokes 2nd 3rd mark you

I need with advanced costa rica

regulations and now it is ethical to cover

the faces

NaBai like the lady in pain

legs and that’s what interests me that

is living a calamity in better

very little rhythm

I imagine that that image is a lot of

those of us here in the city

accepted in the region

our evaluation many many

images memories and sensations a

so much confused and the truth to me

I have a hard time talking about what was the

February 27 so that we are here

because we would not have what was

going

the truth is happening as power

explain this diagram this situation

but it was like everyone is sleeping

put you in a blender starts

to turn in the area the street there is no

electricity we did not have communications

we did not know what the hell it was what

was happening is for many was

maybe the first earthquake or the first

set first strong earthquake but the truth

is that we did not understand anything

fortunately, our equipment

communications like fire department

that they kept working and

I had it heard emergency dispatch

many emergencies rescue rescues

vehicular gas leaks fire

then the truth that could

to collapse

we must admit that we were afraid

They want to leave for the house but

you had to do the job and the best

successful way out breathing deep

true count to ten and try to

minimize things to see what it is that

is happening here we have a

emergency which is the same thing that happens to

daily are the same energies

conventional that we see the

difference that they are multiple and

We are attending for all partners

so, being clear, let’s go to

fight and so the first one comes out

emergency that he remembers that he was

combat was that of the faculty of

chemical sciences of the University of

conception for those who do not know her

we’re talking a 34-story building

tall maybe half a block

discussion in which they were called

descended on all four sides and very

complex for a 27 year old

back tell the dean follow

unfortunate state in which more because

we are not going to work here and not

it was alien I’ll leave a building

patrimonial that when we went to the

regional hospital why why

reasoning tells us that we have to

make sure that the health center

where you will receive all the

victims had to be in good

bills

and this was an important fund because it

marked the first in light of something

was happening with the services

public water with the state part

we arrived at the regional hospital and the best

way to write a movie of

true it’s true had the

public assistance had been armed a

kind of putting your attention on the

parking and good has to do with

gaza control lots of things to

ensure recent and there we start to see

get dead people kids with the

deputation is things that the truth

outperform anyone but is already firm

we are here to serve if we

we went out to the street people died

what happens between the regional hospital and

get to the high river building could give

hours because a lot of things happened but

when we arrived at the high river building

that was the coast hit the zero zone

from the earthquake to ground zero was the

coastal edge

we find a panorama

desolate and the truth costs me

it came to charge and it costs a lot

understand that it was not happening

the best way to write it was one with

a zombie movie

there were naked people wandering people

dead thrown to one side while

We made the tour you already got

I heard voices among the

rubble clamoring for help and the truth

one each as well as 30 that as a copy

reinforcements that what’s going on how

affects this situation if we had

very much afraid

I remember scenes like a woman in a

cell the roof of the building in the

cost in reality that I had not done

in those years to place a scale

so that they lower the woman the

woman gave very light or as was also

of having to let a person die

in this case to a girl a sister

so he asked that we not leave it because

I wanted them to go to another and the father

I was stuck they also contemplate this

situation

those are the things that touched live

those are the decisions that touched us

face how to understand practically

that’s very complex but always the

calm as long as it’s not worse

what can happen and that’s it

already since more can happen to you if

are affecting this can affect

anything you have to believe the story

and that we were several days several

days working but where it is born

something very important that he did not incur

rescued when one listens to the story

success of the courage of prats of the

heroes of conception there is one is given

that the Chilean adn is mone of

river with capacity to overcome any

type of obstacle exists is where

they saw each other and I had to see stories

extraordinary people who still

cost of your own physical integrity

because it worked under no

security condition

we have tools

demons of men have very high b of

first level veriña

no tool was useless no

I could use teams of llegadores I ‘m not going

to use hydraulic equipment nothing everything is

had to do with axes with pliers

screwdrivers with shovels because it was the

only way to dig between

purchases and so work was done by

hours a very complex job where the

people work despite having replicas

7 mercal the interior of the building

with these two concrete blocks

Armed armed hanging are of wire

dancing on your head and you followed and

followed the Chileans fighting

Battling in a minute placed the

Chilean flag

it was really exciting was the

national anthem you realize that

we can we can fight if

we can fight when they are united as

as a society

when we are with a certain end that

help the person is amazing

amazing really what the Chilean and

people can do when they

try to save and protect the life of

someone

hopefully well the day after day after

of the high river and summarizing how it looks like

I do not like to have many problems

I had to take charge also of the

the regional emergency office in the

region with the region as it said the

intendant the earthquake era was

quite difficult to work the spirits

of the people is very good and the

president also told us or arms the

weapons the villages to get people out

from here to June they all go

under that premise we

we have to work and except for some there

than recognize it and that allowed me

know the region

the bio region is a region

beautiful but you know that the

Bío Bío region the region more

dangerous of chile we have the uned of

volcanoes vulnerability

we have the true vulnerability the

earthquakes fire zone

forestry and also the risks

technological products of the

chemical industries that you are

here in this region in another and there it is

where I have true me my feelings

found because if we talk about that the

Chilean resident has this ability

to fight and fight but

unfortunately he has very bad memory

he forgets everything plus seven years almost

since the emergency occurred and the

people are incurring the same

custom that happens

we had the largest forestry sector

the history of the country here 27,000

hectares burned or villages hundred and

so many homes destroyed more than 15

deceased people

what about the rules that say in the

Teachers’ safety strip

such because people are followed

burning the house if it is not like this indicated

preventive culture because they do not feel

on the branch of the trees when the

hillside us over his house and we’re

talking about all social levels

but the day moncó motive and before that

accepted side we do not learn what happens with

the theme of volcanoes

people do not believe of that total this is not going

to pass have not exaggerated things if

this happens is not that it’s just the

film and disasters happen affects

and you have to know how to handle it and know

fight and I never thought that I

will play also are teams of

emergency before a catastrophe and so on

my turn I had to face a

no number of situations extremely

complex but always under the premise

that break the university when I

they said in 17 of students and employment and

you also work rain and

only way to face and to be able

articulate these situations and leave

forward it was working but

compromising the heart the soul the

true sweating blood voices

that way you work is the only way to

out to get ahead and that

we are talking about an emergency

static as was the earthquake as what

the previous speaker indicates the

earthquake happens rebuild be it

that what is happening today

today we are facing an axis of a

tremendous emergency an emergency

dynamic schubert called change

climate

you know that in this region

they deliver one million liters a day

of water for human consumption

you know that the localities

the wells are dry and the

people do not have water and they are

stocking through trucks

Cisterns of the year 2010

that is the reality that we are

facing and what are we doing

us to fight this the truth

it seems that we do not remember that we had

an earthquake recently with so many people

he knows his neighbors because of the earthquake

it’s amazing the neighbors know each other

for the earthquake because I had to arm

true patrol or citizen police

to meet to defend their neighborhoods

of the here or the Greeks was authorized

I told you thousands of years ago

man is a social being by

nature requires others to be able

buy your needs and we

we live in a world absolutely

self- centered individualist

what choices are we delivering

us to our children but that

We are living one as Ha Ha lie

when what you’re doing is a

uncomfortable reality that we are doing

us for changing the world that

we are doing us to fight

for future generations

the truth except isolated cases not much

and it ‘s something that worries the change

climate is here to stay and it is the

emergency for the next 20 years and

this thing is going to make these things worse for

achieve and it would be good to start

make the measures more transparent

that are being adopted to combat it

I remember a million liters of water

daily drink are delivered in this

region and also for you to know

puchero by statistics has to

live two earthquakes study that we are

doing us to prepare us for

next or we’re thinking that it’s not going

Well , it’s going to touch us, not even the truth

is going to touch more than one

here present then we have to

organizing we have to be more human

more social and not start the changes

of attitude true tomorrow the change

social the attitude change has to be

now we were just leaving here to save water

or electricity

the subject of garbage person with standards

environmental

that’s the way that civil war in

followed is needed because if we are not

going straight to the cliff directly to

precipice and there is something I want to point out

that at least I’m calm

because I know that Chileans brave was going to

to answer and I can not stop

name true or make a

a thank you to people who never

has been recognized and I think this is the

opportunity because as long as they continue

existing a firefighter as marcelo plaza

who was the architect of protection

civil and firefighting and

rescue of people in the city of

conception while they continue to exist

military like Colonel Juan Carlos

andrada while they continue to exist

carabineros like lamb and women like

the Catalan commander while they continue

exist in resuscitators in

sa services as flour as destined

as alvaro daily plus us

we can be calm because I know north

with which you have to train

future generations we not only have

as people work for others

be more human has sold us lists

only that reflection was of selena

for the opportunity to be able to

day with you thank you very much

[Applause]
