Havana, Nov 9 (Prensa Latina)
Accustomed to celebrating a crushing blow to the US blockade in the United Nations for 14 years, Cubans continue to party in the streets.

Managua, Nov 8 (Prensa Latina)
The indisputable electoral victory of Daniel Ortega in Nicaragua is the fitting reward for an electoral campaign that advocated peace and reconciliation as the Sandinista Movement s new standards.

By: Michael Fox Venezuelanalysis.com A National Meeting of the Urban Land Committees (CTU), which are instrumental in Venezuela's urban land reform program, was held this weekend in the Miranda state capital, Los Teques, just outside of Caracas. Because of the autonomy and participation, the meeting was described by those in attendance as the "first of its kind."
The Urban Land Committees were brought to life by Presidential decree 1666, in 2002. Since then they have become an important form of community "mobilization" and organization, enabling urban communities to receive title to their property, to establish the norms of their community through the creation of a "community charter," and to improve the conditions of life in the barrios, by demanding the right to housing and habitat, not just land. |
