HABIT 5 SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND THEN TO BE UNDERSTOOD - ANIMATED BOOK ...

Are you ready for this?

In Australia, there is a famous region called BENDIGO. It's apparently in the TOP 10 regions for global extraction of GOLD (aka Au).
The City of GreaterBendigo is less than two hours drive from Australia's 2nd biggest city. Capital of Victoria, Melbourne benefitted from the goldrushes in Ballarat, Bendigo and elsewhere.

Today, Greater Bendigo has a population of over 112,000. It is undergoing fast-growth, with a growth rate of about 1.7 percent.

A man of rare integrity and courage is standing for local government. Samuel  is his name. Just like the Biblical prophet. He is walking in to a cesspit of a local government. He is a candidate in a sea of 32 candidates. The sea includes seven sitting Councillors. Five of them are said to be toxic and in it for themselves, their companies and their mates. They reportedly benefit from construction and rezoning of land. He believes in consultation - as do many candidates.

SAMUEL TSHISEKEDI  is a black African man married to a Melissa from Boort near Charlton (western Victoria). He is a Church leader. We don't know if even he can save Bendigo from the State Government axe!!

Samuel is learned and well-travelled. He finally decided to do more than most people of faith. He threw his name in the hat to contest the LOCKWOOD WARD. The three electoral divisions or Wards are Eppalock, Lockwood and Whipstick. Each returns 3 Councillors.

Bendigo, many of the people, have issues with a proposed Mosque and later school in East Bendigo. There is a huge counter-attack by cultural elites and lately the media. There are Councillors and Candidates wanting an investigation into the Council Planning surrounding the Mosque and it's Applicant the controversial Australian Islamic Mission. brave leaders of this resistance include Councillors Elise Chapman (standing in Lockwood Ward), Helen Leach (Eppalock Ward) and also Julie Hoskin. Julie (Whipstick Ward) had worked in that very Planning department.

Samuel is contesting Lockwood Ward and recommends second preferences be given to Elise Chapman - and vice versa.

Lockwood is a highly controversial BATTLEFIELD.....
.............................................................................................

ROD FYFFE, Greater Bendigo Mayor for the past year, is standing for Council yet again. His claim to fame: He is a Career Councillor's Career Councillor. He has been Councillor for Bendigo (now Greater Bendigo) for THIRTY YEARS. Again, thirty!!

Fyffee, as past and present students call him, is a Mathematics teacher. Jeff Kennett sacked all Councils in Victoria in 1994 and replaced them with 3 Commissioners, so Cr Fyffe had an enforced holiday from 1994 to 1996 before resuming his Business Book of Records atempt.

So he has been the default winner of elections since Bob Hawke became Prime Minister of Australia?  Other world leaders in 1983 were Mitterand, Thatcher and Reagan. Democracy in Greater Bendigo is veiled. He had been Mayor on four occasions. Councillor - 30 years, Mayor - four.

Houston, we have a problem! Bendigo needs fresh ideas - not a powerful bottleneck in the democratic process. it would take a determined Council manager to stand up to the stubborn thirty year veteran.

Tttt

Samuel's other figure of controversy is young MATT EMOND. He's a member of the ALP but is running as the proverbial Independent candidate? BLAH BLAH!

He is from a political family and is related to Jacinta Allan. The Victorian State Member for Bendigo East is a powerlifter in radical State ALP politics. She is Minister for Public Transport and Minister for Major Projects. a heavy hitter indeed.

Matt's main claim to fame however is that he sleeps with Federal ALP Member for Bendigo Lisa CHESTERS. They are happy to keep secrets away from Lockwood Ward voters of course.

BOYCOTT THE CENSUS . SAY NO TO ESTABLISHMENT POLITICIANS

                                       DO  NOT
 GIVE POLITICIANS AND THEIR CORPORATE BOSSES MORE CONTROL



    ANNA JOHNSTON, former Deputy Privacy Commissioner (most populous Australian State -NSW)
 REFUSES CENSUS

     SALINGER PRIVACY page (more artticles incl Why I'm Taking Leave of my Census)


    CENSUS COMPUTERS CRASH   (blame the Russians)


This month and every 5 years Australia and other nations have a CENSUS. If you see nothing wrong with increasing power of government and corporations over our lives, then ignore this blog post.

If you want you, your family and grandchildren to enjoy liberty and LESS interference by multinational corporations (MNCs) - the miltary industrial complex - then read on ... ... ...


The Census is NOT used for your benefit. Corporations and government agencies BUY data for a whole range of purposes, such as plonking a McDonalds store in a totally unsuitable environment (eg Tecoma near Belgrave in Victoria, Australia). Walmart, Subway, foreign bank, etc.




Do you want ceaseless property development ?? Homelessness in world cities is a fact of life for many newlyweds,war veterans, mentally ill and even children - not just older men.
Just ignore the forms until the Census collector gets tired of reminding you/ your household. There are NO draconian fines for ignoring the garbage - forms or online. Just ignore their requests.

Governments - from the United Nations down to local level - have failed citizens. Stop feeding establishment politicians.



   ****   Maybe this is a good time to consider the BENEFITS of boycotting the Facebook data mining website.
   ****  Is it time to take back your life from Mark Zuckerberg & Co.??


                                       DO  NOT
 GIVE POLITICIANS AND THEIR CORPORATE BOSSES MORE CONTROL

Take this pice of advice.  The Census and all its PR and slogans is designed to do this  -  SELL YOU AND YOUR FUTURES TO UN-NEEDED PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
