[fse-esf] EPA Frankfurt

[prokes at duha.cz]

Dear comrades and friends, 

thank you very much for the invitation. 

As a Central/Eastern European, I am missing at least one CEE language to be 
interpreted at the EPA. Why not Czech or Polish?
I also tried to explain already before the last EPA in Vienna, that if you 
want (do you really?) a just participation from CEE countries you should 
GUARANTEE at least a partial but fixed reimbursement of their travel costs 
(e.g. 50 per cent). It can not depend fully on the reg. fees of Western 
participants, it is necessary to find complimentary resources.
In Vienna was again only a handful of CEE participants because of that. 

As an environmentalist, I insist to appeal (agreed at the EPA Vienna):
NOT TO FLY to Frankfurt am Main (Ffm) from distances lower than 1000 km. 
Fast trains arrive there at a speed of 300 km/h. There are direct 
connections from B, F, NL, CH, I, CZ and others, as well as some 
international bus lines.
You should base the amount for the reg. fees on the environmentally 
friendly/hostile means of travel (under 1000 km). Let the Greeks fly like 
Daidalos (not like Ikaros)!
Otherwise, we are not trustful as a movement for another world. 

Best regards from Prague,
