During a visit this Wednesday to the city of Baracoa, in the province of Guantánamo, the Cuban ruler Miguel Diaz-Canel called for the realization of voluntary jobs, as a way to increase food production and reduce food prices, while at the same time He called the town “lazy”.
On social networks a video where Díaz-Canel is seen justifying the inflation of food prices with the lack of production: “Until we produce the food we need prices are not going to drop”.
The ruler also said that “there is no miracle here, there is enough land to produce food, what you have to do is get to work and do volunteer work days, as has been done at another time”, which demonstrates the inability of the regime to find real solutions to the serious economic crisis affecting the nation.
Finally, during an exchange with the people, he assured that “we have some people who are vacant, disconnected from study and work, they do not contribute and claim many rights, but they do not fulfill duties.”
Although Cuban Television broadcast a report on the president's visit to the city of Baracoa, where it omitted the “warm” words addressed to the people, the official material did address the problems faced by some industries in that Guantanamo territory.
Despite having received a significant investment in two of its lines in 2018, the chocolate factory is unable to achieve the expected production levels. The problem lies in the quality of the raw material received, justified its director.
The television report showed the coconut oil extraction factory paralyzed, despite the fact that the entity tripled its productive capacity after an investment. The difficulty here is the lack of raw materials, said the official media.
Díaz-Canel admitted that this is an inefficient entity and indicated that they would look for solutions to improve the collection of coconuts.
Regarding this matter, the director of the entity insisted that the problem is that the coconut trees have not yet been recovered and recalled that Cyclone Matthew destroyed this crop in Baracoa in 2016.
Among the president's most recent "innovative" proposals is the suggestion that the official newspaper Granma becomes the most read newspaper in Cuba.
During a tour of the facilities of that media outlet, Díaz-Canel told media workers that they must be more innovative in their routines to attract younger audiences.
Another example of the so-called “continuity” led by the president, was the recent conversion of a university farm created by the dictator Fidel Castro into a new small and medium-sized private company (MSME).
Díaz-Canel traveled to the place known as El Guayabal, located on the National Highway, a few steps from the "Fructuoso Rodríguez Pérez" Agrarian University of Havana, as part of a tour of the Mayabeque province, last Saturday.
“We can go to a different time on the farm. Because the farm has all the conditions to become another form of management. We are proposing that, with all the productive and scientific potential it has, it becomes a Mipyme”said the also first secretary of the only Party in Cuba.
