qarimpeiros that are within that territory. 4. A few months ago it appeared that Brazil, under newly-elected President Ferdinand Collor de Mello, was at last determined to respond to the situation created by the influx of the garimpeiros. Tragically, the hopes of that recent period now appear misplaced. Of the three measures long deemed indispensable, not one has actually been carried out. The garimpeiros have not been expelled from the indiqenous territory, and President Collor has not annulled his predecessor's creation of the qarimpeiro "reserves" in the Yanomami territory. There is no comprehensive medical plan in place, so the Yanomami mortality rate continues to mount. The Government has neither demarcated Yanomami territory as one contiguous unit nor taken steps to protect the area from invasion. Failure to destroy clandestine airstrips 5. The Government's plan to dynamite the illegal qarimpeiro airstrips, announced by President Collor in late March, has badly failed. Of more than 100 such strips, only 14 were dynamited before the programme was called off on account of the rainy season. Of these 14, at least nine are now back in operation. Moreover, the dynamiting of the strips will not resume until the end of the rains, usually in September. Failure to remove miners 6. On 21 April 1990, the federal court which last year ordered the garimpeiros' removal issued a new order directing FUNAI, the government Indian agency, to carry out the court's removal order. Ignoring the prior administration's illegal declaration of qarimpeiro "reserves" inside Yanomami territory, the court warned that failure to implement its mandate would subject FUNAI's head to contempt penalties. In addition, the Federal Prosecutor's office recently asked the Justice Department to use military force to control the qarimpeiros in certain areas of the Yanomami territory. However, these developments come at a time when the Federal Police have 
**Analysis**
The text appears to be focused on the issues related to the exploitation of natural resources, specifically gold mining, and its impact on the indigenous population and their territory. It highlights the failure of the government to take effective measures to address the situation, including the lack of comprehensive medical plan, failure to remove miners, and failure to protect the territory from invasion. The text also mentions the court orders and the government's inaction, which suggests a deeper issue of human rights and social justice.
