Commercial buildings collapse in Caibarién
CAIBARIÉN, Cuba - October 10 (Alexander
Francisco García Mujica, Villa Blanca
Press / www.cubanet.org) - Several buildings
housing food stores in Caibarién
have collapsed due to neglect and the stores
have been relocated, making consumers go
longer distances to secure their food allotments.
The roof of the "La Piñera"
store in Comercio Avenue collapsed four
months ago. The roof of the "El Volcán"
on 19th Avenue is propped up with construction
lumber. The "La Playa" and "La
Frontera" stores on 14th Street have
been in ruins for nearly five years now.
Consumers complain that often they can't
get even the goods allotted to them by the
ration books because of overcrowding in
the stores that remain open.
