“The bank has to protect itself from money laundering”
“The bank has to protect itself from money laundering”
On the 19th of may the association Enlace Civil A.C. with seat in San Crist½bal de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico, received notice from the regional manager Adulfo Ruiz Hern΅ndez the outrageous message that the bank has to close down the accounts. Asked for a explanation, the manager declined to comment and declared only that “the bank would have to protect itself from money laundering”.
About a month ago, the bank has done the same with the health organization OSIMECH. Which is focused on educating health promoters. OSIMECH was obliged to shut down its accounts.
As well as Enlace Civil, OSIMECH is working on civil issues and transparent and stress, that they have paid over the necessary taxes.
They support the work of the civil Junta of good governments and the Zapatista movement.
The signatories of the protest message from Enlace Civil stress:
“Amongst the donors is the Basque government, the finnish embassy, Italian municipalities and catalan community councils, as well as hundreds of small organizations, NGO, cultural groups, sports associations, men and women from Mexico and the whole world, who are doing, what the government and the political parties don't do, they fraternise with the indigenous communities, learn about their enormous dignity and their resistance against the powerfull and walk forward with them on the path to a more just and dignified Mexico, where the racism, the discrimination and the misery are not more than a bad story of the past.”
The organization Enlace Civil declares that the bankers have not understood that “the conquering and colonization of the indigenous people are over”. They react shocked and outraged that,
“all those who contribute economically to build schools, small shops, clinics, potable water systems, electricity systems, libraries and brick yards are accused to be money launderers.”
Enlace Civil calls on everybody who supports the peacefull struggle of the indigenous Zapatista communities, to defend themselves against this escalation and to publically speak out against the bank Bilbao Vizcaya-Bancomer and to care that “ they experience that the Conquista, the racism, and the effacement war and the contempt for the humanity are not values which we would be willing to accept.”

Javier Elorriaga, secretario.
For the Comité Eureka: Rosario Ibarra de Piedra
For the trust for the health of indigenous children of Mexico, A.C.: Ofelia Medina
