HAVANA, Octubre 1 (Amarilis Cortina Rey, Cuba-Verdad / www.cubanet.org) - A
sign posted at the distribution point for rationed foodstuffs in Managua, a town
south of Havana, advises patrons to "Please, come pick up your merchandise
as we receive it, because otherwise it gets wet."
The establishment, known locally as the "Mini-Max," has plenty of
leaks in its roof and should have been repaired years ago, according to local
residents, but local officials have instead posted the sign. "That's the
only solution that occurred to them," said one resident.
One "Mini-Max" employee explained: "For us, it's very hard to
keep dry what little food we get to distribute to the population."
