Filipinos in NYC March for a Free Palestine

Christina Hilo

Filipinos in New York City joined thousands on January 3 in a long march from Times Square to the Israeli Consulate on Second Avenue in opposition to the continuing military offensives of the Israeli government on the city of Gaza, already claiming over 400 lives and wounding thousands more Palestinians, including women and children. Under the banner of the Filipino-American alliance known as BAYAN USA, members from Filipinas for Rights and Empowerment (FiRE), Anakbayan New York/New Jersey, and the New York Committee for Human Rights in the Philippines (NYCHRP) expressed solidarity for the Palestinian people's 6-decade long struggle against the Zionist occupation of their ancestral land, otherwise known as the state of "Israel".

"The Filipino people are in complete and unconditional solidarity with the Palestinian people's struggle for national liberation," stated BAYAN USA Secretary-General Berna Ellorin from the rally stage in Times Square, in front of four packed city blocks of protesters, many of whom were Palestinian immigrants, who cheered in response. "In Manila, the capital city of the Philippines, the Israeli embassy is already the site of massive protests of Filipinos against the US-Israeli attacks on Gaza."

Ellorin also expressed the alliance's respect for the Palestinian people's right to choose any form of struggle to defeat their oppressors, including armed struggle. "The massacre of the Palestinian people by the US-Israeli pact is historical and systemic. The Palestinian people not only have every right to defend themselves, but to assert their claim over their occupied homeland," she also exclaimed from the loud speakers.

During the rally and march to the Israeli Consulate, BAYAN USA members painted "Free Palestine!" on their faces and learned pro-Palestinian chants in Arabic from Palestinian youth. They also drew connections between the Palestinian people's struggle and the Filipino people's continuing struggle for genuine nationalism and democracy in the Philippines, free from US government intervention in economic and political affairs through US-puppet Philippine governments such as that of Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.

Protesters also sharply criticized US President-Elect Barack Obama's silence and inaction on the Gaza attacks. Meanwhile, Israel remains the largest annual recipient of US economic aid in the world, billions of which are used to supply the weaponry, ammunition, and technological capabilities being employed in the Israeli military offensive on the Palestinians. US foreign aid is funneled from US tax dollars.

January 3rd marked a national day of protest across the United States against the continuing US-Israeli attacks in Gaza that began as air strikes and have now evolved into ground attacks.

Unlike other major sportsOne Word league in the United States, soccer has never had a strike season, an attribute to both players and owners. It definitely does not need one either!
MLS cannot afford to have a 姑苏城外寒山寺lockout season. For one, soccer has flourished in the United States ever since its inception in 1996. Before that time, pro soccer was none existent in North America涛声依旧1987

The first time pro soccer 凭窗听雨的博客was attempted in North America it failed, miserably. As a result, there平平淡淡才是真 were no other attempts until recently when the US national team began to do well on the world stage in World Cup qualifying matches and the谁为我疯狂 World Cup.

Mold Price/Payment Conditions

Q.: Why http://www.vulcanmold.com/category/injection-mold/ " title="Plastic Molds">Plastic Molds are so expensive?

A.: Majority of Injection Molds cost are materials and machining costs. What follows is that the product structure, materials used, number of cavities, and Injection Mould Design size influence the price the most. The cost can start from a few thousand to more than 100 thousand USD. Trying to say whether Moulding Process is expensive or not, is possible only knowing all of those mentioned, how they were taken into the quotation. For this reason Vulcanmold provides a detailed calculation of all the costs on quoting.

Q.: I got almost 20% more competitive quotation from another China Injection Molding Manufacturer. What is the reason for that ?

A.: There are always 3 factors that have to be balanced and are reflected in every quotation: Mold Design quality, delivery time and price. Quotations given by Vulcanmold have the 3 things well harmonized. The reason that you got a more competitive quotation for the same product is lying somewhere in that harmony.

Q.: What kind of payment conditions do you accept ?

A.: Usually we accept standard payment conditions - that is: 30% of down payment, 60% on Injection Molder trials and 10% on plastic molds delivery. The conditions may be however adjusted, particularly in case of bigger contracts. The preferable forms of payment are wire transfers and letters of credit. Very often we use a combination of those.

Q.: Is is possible to build injection molding for a price cheaper than I received in Vulcanmold 's quotation ?

A.: There are many cases which we can notice when injection molds requirements are too exagerated because of difficulties in exact defining of necessary product parameters. It is therefore extremally important to share with us all the information about the product, its use, functions etc. This will help us to look for a way to reduce costs given on quotation and in result your cost of Mould Design.

A.: Using the facilities we have we can make Compression Mold of various sizes up to 15 tons in weight, also for small, precision parts. However its is our policy not to accept orders for small Machined Parts. Of course for special reasons and if a Compression Molding Plastics is an assembly and also has some small parts in it we are making all of the Compression Moulding.

Q.: Is Vulcanmold Engineering manufacturing only mass production molds for Injection Compression Molding and die casting processes?

A.: Usually we make only plastic mold for mass production though it sporadically happens that we are also building prototypes.

Q.: What if I want to make changes to the Plastic Manufacture mold at a later date ?

A.: Changes can usually always be made. However, it is best that you try to anticipate any changes that may occur so that appropriate accommodations can be made for them in the plastic moulding ahead of time.

Q.: I do not have a drawing of my injection mold only its general idea how it will look like. Can you help and build the Machining Parts ?

A.: We are able to help also with product design as a plastic molding .

Q.: Can you only design a mold for me as you are an plastic injection moulding Manufactuer?

A.: As Injection Molding Manufactuer In China it is not desirable for us to make only designs so we can take such order only as an exception.

Q.: We have a mold which was made by another Plastic Mould Manufacturers and it needs a serious repair. Could you do it for us? This way we could check your competence in the field before we decide to place an order for a new Metal Stamping Parts.

A.: The best solution to have a Machine Part repaired is to order it in the toolshop where it was manufactured. It happens very rarely, but we were also repairing Part Stamping made by others. Recently Vulcanmold invested in a new 250 ton die spotting press which makes injection mould repairs easier and much faster so we can undertake such task, too.
