Laundries closed in Cienfuegos

CIENFUEGOS, November 5 (Alejandro Tur Valladares, Cubanacán Press /
www.cubanet.org) - La Gigante has been shuttered for months, and so has La Juanita. Pastorita is working at much less than capacity and only for government entities.

These and other laundries in Cienfuegos have succumbed to a scarcity of fuel and a lack of spare parts to repair often old equipment. In many cases, the problems are aggravated by the use of high-sulfur Cuban crude, which accelerates wear of tubing and boilers.

The only self-service laundry in town is offering washer, but no dryer service.
