FROM
CUBA
More than 40% of postal parcels lost in
Cuba
HAVANA, July (David Josué / www.cubanet.org)
- More than 40% of the postal parcels mailed
this year have never reached their destination,
according to a recent study.
Among the missing: a refrigerator, a pair
of pants, a cellular phone, a fan. The street
name for those who still dare use the Cuban
post office's parcel post service: postal
fools.
Most people here are convinced the merchandise
is simply stolen in transit, and in spite
of the occasional investigations and firings,
the parcels keep getting lost. Complaints
are plentiful, but seldom if ever afford
satisfaction to the complainant.
