6:02 am
the critics feared it would lead to uncertainty. in his present campaign for the new constitution is calling for unity. despite the sec james bell, 60 him, the chile has shown us it is a demanding nation that believes in democracy that we all have to respond to the aspirations of this mandate demo. that is why from the bottom of our hearts we owe it to the whole population, regardless of what choice they made in the referendum to work together to build our future. what i said more now for my latin america, it's elissia newman, who's in the capital of santiago. what you see behind me are you villain chileans who are celebrating the defeat of the draft constitution. they were the ones. there were among the vast majority of julian who voted against that proposal. they say that has said gillian democracy, a short while ago president gabrielle body to address the nation. know, and he said he agreed that this had been a democratic process that more jillions than ever before in history had
6:03 am
participated in this referendum, which was compulsory. and he also said that the process would continue, that he is calling with the leaders of all the political parties on monday to get together in the presidential palace to discuss ways to move forward from now on. because there seems to be a wide spread agreement that this is not the end of the road that julie will not remain with the 1980 constitution that was written under the peano se dictatorship . but rather than a new version must be written one that is more pluralistic and that takes into account points to view that clearly the majority of trillions believe were left out of that draft constitution. how far it will go, will it be as progressive as the one that was rejected? probably not. but it is hope that the whole process will be over within 12 months. so just what is it about the proposed new constitution that some objective? oh critics, it goes out of its way to appease the historically marginalized indigenous groups.

6:05 am
a new constitution. but people working with these proposals in most of the political parties, even in the last few weeks have been say, and explicitly agreeing on having a condition install of the kill are looking for. so we still have to agree on what are going to be the best for that. and then the board have said that this week is going to be for the mobile for these negotiations. we still have to work on for 15 day electoral data. so it's not going to be something that is going to happen in one of 2 months. but we are going to have another process. maybe we and some differences reflecting how the independents are going to be involved, how the social movements are going to be involved in this next chapter. now through developing story of western canada,
