Women's Federation starts campaign
HAVANA, Cuba - August 25 (Ahmed Rodríguez
Albacia, Jóvenes sin Censura / www.cubanet.org)
- The Latin American Federation of Rural
Women has launched a campaign demanding
that Cubans regain the right to pay in pesos
everywhere on the island.
At present there are many establishments
that only accept hard currency, such as
dollars or euros, as payment. Many Cubans
chafe under this arrangement, since, they
complain, they are paid their salaries in
pesos and many don't have relatives abroad
who can send them money in dollar or euro
denominations.
Leaders of the Women's Federation said
they will collect signatures to call for
the enactment of a law that would "return
to Cubans the rights they should have never
lost."
