Hi friends:
I am sending these pictures to you in hopes you will perhaps be able to send them off to others. I have diligently been working on writing up reports on all of the places we have visited in the last few days, but for now the captions to these photos will have to do....

international / rights, freedoms and repression Tuesday August 22, 2006 09:46 by Shane Faherty

In Kazakhstan massive slum clearances are taking place to facilitate the development of luxury apartments and leisure facilities. These homes were built by people who were made unemployed and displaced by neo-liberal policies following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Now they find that in order to facilitate these policies they must once again become homeless. The CWI (Comittee for a Workers International - the International of which the Socialist Party is part) section in Kazakhstan, Socialist Resistance, is deemed to be an illegal organisation but has played an active role in organising resistance to these clearances with many of our Comrades having been arrested or injured. I have published here information received from Kazakhstan and while I have edited it to some degree to run two seperate pieces together, it is otherwise a firsthand account of the situation there. Any letters or emails that can be sent in solidarity would be greatly appreciated.

Further Links on this story:
  • Report from from the Institute for War & Peace Reporting on the background of similar demolition of houses in April 2006
  • Report from the CWI on the struggle and resistance of the residents in April this year
  • Recent report from the CWI dealing with this latest attack on the shanty town.
