Agricultural workers in Cuba have not been
paid in three months
HAVANA, June 1 (Moisés Leonardo
Rodríguez, Grupo Decoro / www.cubanet.org)
- The members of the Ernesto "Che"
Guevara agricultural cooperative, in the
La Guanábana neighborhood, Media
Luna, Granma province, have not received
their salaries in three months, said Jesús
Guerra from that territory.
The coop members receive credits to buy
food, and the net is deducted from their
salaries. In some cases, the monthly pay
remaining after deductions has been as little
as 15 pesos, less than a dollar at the current
exchange rate, said Guerra.
Coop members Ángel Guerra, a mule
driver, and Frank Domínguez, who
shoes the mules, complain that they are
obligated to participate in the so-called
Day of Defense under threat of punishment.
