Young Cubans filmed a hilarious video where they imitate Cuban public works officials and show the inefficiency of the state in solving simple, everyday problems.
In front of a street full of potholes, a young man in his role as an official responds to another who imitates a journalist about fixing it, according to a video posted on TikTok.
"Here everyone knows that this street has been broken for years; but we are already working on that thanks to the resources of the MICONS (Ministry of Construction), thanks to the resources of the EJT, thanks to the resources of the head of housing who is a friend of mine and thanks to the resources of the one who got me the pins for my mother-in-law's house," he stated in reference to corruption and influence peddling on the island.
"Thanks to the director of the asphalt plant as well, this work is destined to be completed in a period of 4 years more or less, since it is 50 meters of street, a difficult work, which although it may not seem like it to you, we are working on it, but It's difficult because we are blocked by the United States," he continued to a group of young people from the neighborhood who couldn't stop laughing.
He said that "Cuba is a strong country and we have support from the youth, from the MTT, from the UJC, from the FMC, from the PCC, I don't know. Look at the people here how happy and laughing. They brought water to our workers cold, and cold water for a snack because there is no snack, but hey, we are working here proudly, because with this work we are going to advance the revolution," he concluded.
Several forum members commented on the publication and agreed that "that sarcasm is understood by those of us who have lived the harsh reality" of Cuban socialism, which can take years to fix a pothole.
"That boy is a cracker and he has them on well," said another.
