And what about the miners rescued in Chile.


Carlos Mamani Solis

is a Bolivian who belongs to a group of 33 miners who survived 70 days trapped 700 meters deep in northern Chile. The miner now forgotten and poor lives with his wife and infant daughter in Copiapo, Chile, watching sadly from a distance, the success of their fellow miners in the Odyssey.

While his fellow miners appear in major programs of American television, and photographed with soccer players of Manchester United of England or make money by offering motivational talks, Mamani is looking for work in a spirit still reeling from the impact of the tragedy experienced,

The miner is not doing well. Carlos Mamani lives with his wife and daughter in a house that has no water nor sewer. He went to the Municipality of Copiapo to manage land and to build a better house than they currently have to live now. The answer was to accept an emergency wooden house ..

"I waited and waited and never came. I also went to seek help from the regional governorship, and they said they could not do anything.Maybe they could help, but could not assure anything, "said Mamani

His only income is from the insurance company, which is compensating the 33 miners who were from 5 August to 13 October 2010, buried in the Mina San Jose, Copiapo, Chile. The money paid by the insurance company is about $ 500 a month.

Regarding the supply of a work at home, which was made by the president of Bolivia,Evo Morales, Mamani said: "I will not comment on what happened with that job. "

"For now I want to stay in Chile, just in case it appeared the contract of the film they want to do. I want to be here to sign and secure my rights, " he said.

"Neither do I know what to work on later. Working in a mine scares me, yet I have nightmares, "said the young Bolivian miner, aged 24.Tired of asking for help. "I'm so embarrassed to ask for help, "he said.

Johnny Quispe Mamani father in law is also a miner, he said that the youth need more support. "He has not had many interviews and appearances on television not as the others. It's because he is very humble. "

Omar Reygadas , another one of the 33 miners who became a close friend of Mamani, during confinement in depth, agree that this man is very humble, but also "very courageous" and also advised him to stay in Chile, "because here in this country there are more and better opportunities "for what Mamani want to work, which is in the driving of heavy machinery.
