CUBA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The government continues to balance the need for loosening its socialist economic system against a desire for firm political control. The government in April 2011 held the first Cuban Communist Party Congress in almost 13 years, during which leaders approved a plan for wide-ranging economic changes. Since then, the Cuban government has slowly and incrementally implemented limited economic reforms, including allowing Cubans to buy electronic appliances and cell phones, stay in hotels, and buy and sell used cars. The Cuban government also opened up some retail services to "self-employment," leading to the rise of so-called "cuentapropistas" or entrepreneurs. Recent moves include permitting the private ownership and sale of real estate and new vehicles, allowing private farmers to sell agricultural goods directly to hotels, and expanding categories of self-employment. Despite these reforms, the average Cuban's standard of living remains at a lower level than before the collapse of the Soviet Union and the resulting downturn of the 1990s. Since late 2000, Venezuela has been providing oil on preferential terms, and it currently supplies over 100,000 barrels per day of petroleum products. Cuba has been paying for the oil, in part, with the services of Cuban personnel in Venezuela, including some 30,000 medical professionals.

Habaguanex S.A: explosion

November 21, 2012

Corruption

Officers arrested, influence peddling, millionaires theft: an ongoing investigation exposes corruption in companies associated with the Office of the City Historian.

The whole country heard the explosion but no one knows exactly how many people affected and to what extent. The truth is that corruption in companies associated with the Office of the City Historian finally ceased to be a public secret.

Everything indicates that the detonation problem began one of the most visited by foreign tourists, "The Factory," a bar-restaurant located in Merchants Square Historic Center known as The House of Beer. According to testimonies of workers, the arrest of CEO occurred in the street.

The leader was accused of embezzlement and as it was known after the arrest, a field of marijuana was discovered on a farm owned. Other disclosures devenidas of the police investigation say the drug is marketed at "The Factory".
