HAVANA, May 10 (Juan Carlos Linares, Cuba-Verdad / www.cubanet.org) - The
bus company in Aguada de Pasajeros, a small city near the provincial capital of
Cienfuegos, shut down as a result of the chronic scarcity of fuel, idling
workers and leaving one bus running to transport the sick and take care of other
emergencies.
"Some of the former workers said they didnt know when the company
would resume operations. In addition, they complained they didnt get any
severance to tide them over until they find other employment," said local
correspondent Ramón Medina.
"Residents have been reduced to asking for rides on the highway, mostly
from freight trucks," concluded Medina.
