Journalists from Las Tunas remembers Fidel imprint in the province.

On the eve of November 25, a group of journalists from Las Tunas met at the Casa de la Prensa to “talk about Fidel.” It was not one of those meetings that involve hierarchies and nostalgia; it was just a dialogue between colleagues from different generations who, at some point, were close to him.

All state-owned companies, small and medium-sized businesses, and self-employed workers have a responsibility to contribute to the province's economic growth.

The meeting took place days ago. On one side, the government and party authorities; on the other, a group of small private entrepreneurs and self-employed people. It is not the first time that they have held these direct exchanges; however, these are hard times, difficult times, with almost no economic growth and a shortage of key resources such as fuel. What can we make of these types of meetings that take place in all municipalities? Will they be profitable?

Reymundo Betancourt Alvero

Reymundo Betancourt Alvero has traveled in time. He has done it hand in hand with science and perseverance. He has dedicated more than two decades of his life to an investigation into the origins of the place named Puerto del Padre and the evidence of it as Puerto Primado de Cuba (Cuba’s Primate Port). Precisely, the latter is the name of a series of five volumes, sold on Amazon, which should constitute a reference today for anyone approaching the subject.

Late Las Tunas Historian Víctor Marrero.

Great men have always seemed eternal to us, and in a certain way, they are. And even more so when it comes to someone close, who cared about his homeland, he lived in line with that and - in addition - was a good person, one of those more given to books than to pomp and applause.
