Las Tunas.- Majibacoa, to the east of this eastern Cuban province, is the fifth stop of the monthly visits to the Las Tunas municipalities of the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Party and president of the Republic, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, in order to review compliance here with the economic and social priorities outlined for the year 2024; as well as to analyze the progress of party work in said demarcation.
The also called Tierra del Indio Bravo has a decisive role in sugar production in this eastern territory. However, the 2023-2024 campaign, which is about to conclude, will do so with figures very far from what was planned by the Majibacoa sugar agro-industrial company.
Always accompanied by the Secretary of Organization of the Central Committee of the Party, Roberto Morales Ojeda, Díaz-Canel opened his periodic stays this year in Las Tunas in the municipality of Manatí, last January. “The first thing to defend is planning and eliminating unnecessary meetings, which often supplant administrative tasks,” he said at the time.
In February he was in the municipality of Puerto Padre, from where he emphasized that the meetings he is having with farmers, workers and managers from different areas of the economic and social life of the territories are to discuss, yes, but also for everyone to overcome the external objective difficulties that escape the hands of Cuban institutions, such as the US economic blockade.
“Nothing can be more important than contact with the people,” he said last April, after holding several exchanges with authorities and residents of the municipality of Jesús Menéndez. The problems in the economy and the urgent connection of its leaders with the citizens captured the attention of the Cuban President in the similar exchanges that he held less than a month ago with the political and government authorities in the municipality of Amancio, in the south of the country. tunera.
