The Validity of Angostura Statement by Simon Bolivar by Dr. Morella Barreto Lo\u0301pez, Charg\u00e9 D’affairs A.I., The Embassy of The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela in Malaysia<\/strong><\/p>

Abstract<\/strong><\/p>

The Angostura Congress, inaugurated on February 15th, 1819 by the Liberator Sim\u00f3n Bol\u00edvar, in Angostura (today Ciudad Bol\u00edvar), represented the second Constituent Congress of the Republic of Venezuela. It was elaborated in the context of the war of independence of Venezuela and Independence of New Granada. On February 15th, 1819, six months before the Battle of Boyac\u00e1, 26 representatives of the 30 elected representatives met, representingthe Provinces of Caracas, Cuman\u00e1, Trujillo, Margarita, Barinas, Barcelona, Guayana ofVenezuela, and Casanare of Colombia. After the invasion of New Granada, advanced by Bolivar, the Liberator wanted delegates to be sent from this region. A short time later, Bolivar arranged for the region administered by Quito, still under Spanish rule, to be included in the union along with Venezuela and New Granada to form, between the three States, what is called the \u201cGreat Colombia\u201d. The Congress was installed to formulate what, historically, has
been called the “Fundamental Law”; this is to say the Constitution.
Bolivar makes a sociological analysis of Venezuelans: pronounces itself against slavery and for the education of the people; defends democracy and its preference for centralism instead of federalism of the State; and raises the Moral Power to prevent administrative corruption.
“The most perfect system of government is that which produces the greatest possible amount of happiness, the greatest amount of social security and the greatest amount of political stability”, are Bolivar\u2019s words. This presentation addresses the validity of the statement by Bolivar and its relevance to Venezuela 200 years later.<\/p>

Bol\u00edvar in Mart\u00ed and the Cuban Revolution<\/strong>
by H.E. Ibete Fern\u00e1ndez Hern\u00e1ndez, Ambassador, The Embassy of Cuba in\u00a0<\/strong>Malaysia<\/strong><\/p>

Abstract<\/strong><\/p>

The course of civilizations has shown that revolutions have been carried out by great men. These, influenced by the political-cultural environment of their time and the threats that surrounded them, led to revolutionary awakenings that changed the scenario of their nations. Such is the case of Sim\u00f3n Bol\u00edvar and Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ed. The contemporary history of Latin America cannot be rewritten without returning to these two icons of independence and integration.
The Cuban Revolution had as its intellectual guide Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ed, the most universal of all Cubans who, despite their short but fruitful life (1853-1895), gave an unparalleled boost to the final stage of independence war initiated by the mambises, and that was what frustrated by the American intervention in Cuba in 1898. Was the Revolution triumphant? As Mart\u00ed learned from the lessons of Simon Bolivar, Fidel Castro demonstrated the validity of the Martian precepts and its validity and concluded the work in 1959.
Despite having lived at different times, Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ed had a teacher in Bol\u00edvar. He was able to give continuity to his ideas and adapted his own to the circumstances that he had to live. In them, the ideals of Latin Americanism, national independence, fulfilment of social duty and the preservation of ethics are fused, without counting the preponderant role that both granted to education as a means of liberating people.
Although Bol\u00edvar and Mart\u00ed made praiseworthy contributions to the independence of their
countries, the common dream of achieving integration as an instrument to stop the
domination of the powerful has been frustrated. It is still a pending task that will face those
who today have not let their ideas die.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
