HAVANA, September 26 (Armando Soler / www.cubanet.org) - Only 30 of 100
pursers carried in the rolls of Empresa de Navegación Mambisa are
currently employed, said one of the unemployed ones.
"I haven’t sailed in years," said the man, who normally would
mind the cargo and passengers aboard cargo ships.
The eight shipping lines that usually contract personnel from Empresa de
Navegación Mambisa prefer not to carry a purser, said the man.
"The lines operate without us; it seems that we are a hindrance because
we represent the State economically," he said.
At present, the Cuban merchant fleet consists of about 20 ships in seaworthy
condition.
