Observation is that while Peru, Bolivia, Brasil, Venezuela, Ecuador, Puerto Rico, Chile had types of implosions, Argentina didn't reach a massive level of that. Including during the pandemic in 2020, Argentina reached GDP -9.9%, the worst one of G20 countries but with less protests for freedom.

Let's remember that one thing is the minimum salary but another thing is the real salary of employees. Argentinians have been increasing their salaries every year. The gap, the difference between rich people and poor people is large.

Transition 2023 (Part 3) Economy, Electricity, Water

With the highest inflation rate of 94.8% in 2022 according to INDEC (National Institute of Statistics and Census of Argentina) the argentinian presidential transition has been turning hard in January 2023. (General elections are scheduled to be held in Argentina on 22 October 2023)

The worst performance during pandemic and the worst inflation rate considering G20 Countries Ranking. Nicolas Souriongxay is still finding a depending job since 2013, this chart shows  how the evil people argentinian treat him. 

The main image of this video, at a glance, shows the worst performance of Argentina during 2020, during the pandemic restrictions performance. Argentinians, probably, are proud of the recovering in 2021, but people got pain in 2020, there was damage, and there were events, things, lives that couldn't be recovered with just money. That's why it is considered the worst performance for Argentina followed by The UK.

PERSONAL EVENTS

2019: 

Link: https://ethnicjustice.blogspot.com/2022/11/transition-2019.html

To win the election, they attacked services. The worst one was EDESUR, the public company that provides energy to houses. They increased the prices of bills by purpose and with a high inflation they did so much damage and provoked deaths.

2/Nov/2019 : https://www.hamartia.com.ar/2019/11/02/bussetti-3-mil-luz/

Before the election day that was in November 2019, Nicolas received an electricity anormal bill in August of $8000 (Argentine pesos), the previous bills were around $850 (Argentine pesos). Later, another one was received that made a total bill of $12,000 (Argentina Pesos) to pay. Nicolas and his mother were fighting until the end with no external help, they only recieved external pressure including from family pressure. Nicolas was teaching children so he paid part of the bill. His father was sick and consumed so much money and attention. And Nicolas and his mother experienced the feeling of private invasion, professionals in medicine visiting his house to see his father. That  private invasion was necessary to keep his father alive. 

During the period of election day, also this was the news on the argentine media: In a Parliament without a quorum, the feminist Jeanine Añez proclaimed herself president of Bolivia: https://www.eltribuno.com/jujuy/nota/2019-11-12-20-9-0-en-un-parlamento-sin-quorum-jeanine-anez-se-autoproclamo-presidenta-de-bolivia

The Governor of Buenos Aires Province Axel Kicillof delayed the increasing price of electricity in Buenos Aires Province after winning the election : https://www.elterritorio.com.ar/noticias/2019/12/11/646443-axel-kicillof-suspendio-el-aumento-de-la-factura-de-luz-en-la-provincia-de-buenos-aires 

Inflation couldn't be sustained in time. 

8/Sep/2020: People still claiming. 

After that, the increasing quantity of electricity outages decreased considerably, and the segmentation of prices was applied. 

Nicolas Sourivongxay argued outages is a political activity to hurt people. Nicolas says the industry of renewable energy got increased and that was the key to stop outages. Any other outages are considered political activity of destruction of the society, group of people, or a person targeted.

Transition 2023 (Part 2): https://ethnicjustice.blogspot.com/2023/01/towards-transition-2023-part-2.html

This year, the problem was not the bill of electricity, it was a problem with water. For the first time, the water from a well motor did not rise, however, the neighbors filled their tanks with water and they overflowed.

Nicolas asked the Municipality of Esteban Echeverria and Aysa ( The Company in charge of Water) for help, who did not help.

Nicolas had to ask for outside help to resolve the water situation, he received the help of his sisters. Money was spent that did not come from Nicolas's father's retirement. The situation was terrible due to water is vital for life. Water it's the most important service more than electricity ( that is also connected because you need electricity to take water from subterranean area). 

Of course, the ineffectiveness, inaction, negligence, and abandonment by Aysa and the Municipality of Esteban Echeverria, should be classified as a criminal offense that threatens life.

This was the news in argentine media when that was happening: More than 50% of the country is affected by drought. The drought mainly affects the most productive area of ​​Argentina in terms of agribusiness: https://www.infobae.com/economia/campo/2023/01/10/mas-del-50-del-pais-se-encuentra-afectado-por-la-sequia/

1) POLICE & SECURITY CONCERN

In the years 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, until first days of 2023 everything was about police and security persecution and harassment against Nicolas Sourivongxay, including cyberespionage, and harassment by caughing at Nicolas walkside house from the same one or two neighbors in his neighborhood. 

It was proved Nicolas never had fans saying "hi" or congratulating him on the streets, there were only police officers persecuting him. 

July 8th, 2022 a legislator in Ciudad Autonoma de Buenos Aires created 'Mapa de la Policia' against police abuse: https://twitter.com/OfeFernandez_/status/1546608697857777665?cxt=HHwWgoC9pdOa1PYqAAAA . Her political party only did that in Ciudad Autonoma de Buenos Aires where the opposition party rules, but not in Buenos Aires Province due to her political party ruling by a governor. 

And Nicolas fighting at Justice System.

2) QUARANTINE/PANDEMIC/COVID-19

Business damaged

The restrictive quarantine due to Covid-19 starting in March 2020 when Nicolas arrived from his vacation in Mar del Plata. All the consequences it carried, economically and socially. In September 2020, Nicolas left the market with NSComex, his little store, due to lack of clients.  The government sent him money by a program called IFE but the money was just useful to pay taxes not to generate enough income from the market.

Many stores were affected by policies about restrictions during the quarantine in the year 2020: 90,000 stores and 41,000 small enterprises closed in the whole country.

Nicolas returned to the market in February 2021 in the middle of police persecution on the streets.  In December 2021 he left the market due to the persecution of the police in Mar del Plata during his vacation. Nicolas didn't get rest there.  The vacation was paid 50% off with a benefit progrram of the government called Previaje to boost tourism sector consumption.

Abortion

Nicolas wore a mask in green color on the streets without knowing his mask was relevant for a congress decision about abortion in Argentina. That was his first face mask bought at a supermarket in March 2020 and there was not another color. The congress approved it in december 2020 during the quarantine. Later, Nicolas realized of that, so he changed that by using a face mask in white color, and later a client gave him a face mask in light blue color.

Nicolas has been a really fan of the movies 'Resident Evil' so, he follows Milla Jovovich on his personal Instagram Account and Facebook accounts. Milla Jovovich promoted the green handkerchieves/bandana symbol for the cause for the approval of the abortion in The United States of America after the successfull case in Argentina occured in December 2020.

Debt

During the pandemic the deficiencies in infraestructure framework and administrative processes in the governments of the world relied in delay in response of leaders to people needs. The debts of governments increased to spend the money mainly for social security. 

Technology advance

The key was technology adaptation to face the economic problems in communication through the distance for business purposes. 

Remote work, hybrid work, fintech companies, technology to education with the app star 'Zoom" and 'Classroom from Google', technology to Health system, the use of social medias, Facebook that changed to Meta, Twitter, Instagram, more internet connection, whatsapp, telegram.

Technology applied to government processes.

However, the process of adaptation was not easy, and many were excluded because of lack of knowledge, ideology, etc. 

Misinformation and disinformation

Link Latin America: https://unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0000377721_eng

Protest for liberation

Protest in several parts for freedom from restrictions.

Racial discrimination

Against people from Asia. This time not only for commercial war.

4) CYBERSECURITY

It's a global problem that the world decided to hide. It affects Argentina as well. Argentinians cyberspy through technology and no matter if they are experts or not.

Link: https://ethnicjustice.blogspot.com/2022/11/rumors.html

5) RUSSIA vs UKRAINE

Not influenced so much. The political party of Alberto Fernandez was so linked to Russia but later they remained in silence due to the war.

6) INFLATION

Position 7 worldwide of Food inflation according to World Bank (nominal). One of the ten worst countries in the world.

Link: https://twitter.com/worldbank/status/1554098804110008325?lang=en

After that, the government of Joe Biden in the United States of America tried to stop or to control inflation affecting the countries in the world. 

7) CLIMATE CHANGE/ENERGY

Increase of renewable energy sector. Less outages for homes. Outages descreased in qty since the middle of 2020 during quarantine for homes. Nowadays there are sporadic outages due to political purposes more than technical purposes. 

Companies in private sector make complaints frequently due to outages. For example in 2021: https://lavozdecataratas.com/2021/11/24/empresarios-elevaron-una-nota-al-secretario-de-energia-debido-a-los-constantes-cortes-de-luz/

https://www.infobae.com/economia/2022/04/03/falta-de-gas-y-energia-electrica-las-empresas-ya-se-preparan-para-un-invierno-con-cortes/

Nicolas Sourivongxay released 4 (four) videos about it until December 31st, 2022 related to Latin America & the Caribbean situation including in Argentina concerning outages concluding political purposes mostly than technical problems, and more improvement in renewable energy is necesssary for the region.

8) JOB SEARCHING

During the period of time November 2019 until these days in 2023, Nicolas didn't find a job yet despite of sending a lot of resumes by LinKedin, ZonaJobs, Bumeran, Indeed, Clarin empleos, Computrabajo, and other job search platforms, including direct company website platforms. 

Nicolas went to the Ministerio de Trabajo, Empleo, Seguridad Social to make complaints on 10 November 2022 and on 6 December 2022 .

The market remains in silence in Argentina and in the international market but observing, extracting ideas and knowledge secretly. The income of NSComex is still under the mininum salary average.
