Encouraging news from Bolivia:
Bolivian President Evo Morales has signed a law convening a special assembly to rewrite the constitution.
Mr Morales said Bolivia would be refounded, with indigenous peoples playing the role that they had been denied for hundreds of years.
Mr Morales has said the free-market model does not work in Bolivia, and the partial privatisation of basic services and natural resources should be reversed.
The US military now claims Bolivia is no longer a suitable partner in the “war on terror.” A blessing, surely.
