Yo ! Si vous suivez un peu ce qui se passe dans le monde, vous êtes sans doute au courant du terrible typhon qui a frappé les Philippines récemment. Là bas, des potes de l'infoshop Etniko Bandido, situé à Manille, de la Mobile Anarchist School Project et d'autres mettent en place une solidarité pour les victimes. Leur donner accès à l'information, à la communication et aux médias indépendant/alternatif. Pour cela, ils collectent des dons pour financer des panneaux solaires pour pouvoir recharger leurs portables, leurs PC et avoir accès à internet. Pour les dons, très peu de gens ayant paypal, une pote vivant à Tokyo a pris l'initiative de collecter l'argent qu'elle leur enverra ensuite. Voici son texte intégrant celui de Cris, la personne tenant l'infoshop.

The project:
Friends in Manila (from Etniko Bandido, Mobile Anarchist School
Project, and others) need our help to buy equipment for a solar-powered
station to charge phones and provide internet in areas affected by
Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda. For this project, they need about 17,500 Ph
pesos, or around $400. If more funds are raised, more solar panels will
be purchased. ETA: They also need to buy another modem to use as a
back-up, which costs about 2500 pesos.
The infoshop already uses solar power equipment at one of their locations, and they have extensive experience with setting-up and using this technology. One of their long-term goals is to promote the use of solar power in marginalized communities. They plan to travel as soon as next week to the affected areas.

From Cris in Manila:
"We see that there's already a lot of aid concerning to provide foods, water,clothes,medicine but an immediate solution to provide electricity for communication and alternative media purposes was partially neglected, that's why our strategic plan of solidarity with this kind of natural calamities is to provide a free internet and free charging of mobile phones with the help of a solar power equipment..the aftermath of different calamities not only this "typhoon haiyan" is always lost of electrical power and lost of communication for our love ones. this kind of problem are need to address.
our plan is to travel and set up a booth firstly in tacloban city area and put up a 120watts solar panel with batteries,solar charger and inverter that will cost of 17,500 pesos.
so if our international friends and comrades can raise funds for this equipment. we can make solidarity with the victims of this "typhoon haiyan". philippines are always directly affected by different natural calamities, a solar power equipment can always be use after there is a calamity."
How to help: I am collecting donations via paypal (arielkacosta @ yahoo dot com), which I will then wire to Cris/Etnikobandido via Western Union. I considered using an online crowdfunding site, but the fees and time it takes to disburse money put me off the idea. Ideally, we want to get this money to Manila ASAP (by next week), so they can build the stations and get to Tacloban and Leyte quickly.
Who am I and why am I helping: I'm a grad student based living in Tokyo, formerly based in New York. I went to the Philippines in October 2013 with the Japanese punk band The Happening, traveling to Manila, Bacolod in the Visayas region, and throughout Mindanao. We met a lot of amazing punks and activists, whose warmth and generosity in taking care of us, and more importantly- contributing to their communities- was stunning. Now they need our assistance to develop their projects, and I'll do whatever I can to help. thank you for reading! love and solidarity."
