Havana Garbage Pickers
Havana " Buzos"
Havana garbage pickers: for several Cubans survival is a daily challenge.
An article in GRANMA, the Communist Party daily newspaper reported the existence of
garbage pickers, named " Buzos" on the streets of Havana.
More than 300 persons were accused of scarvenging and they got fined for their illegal practice
of collecting empty beer cans and plastic bottles to make a profit.
The newspaper blamed at the same time the inefficiency of the City Removal Services. "Grandma" further said that the city service will intensify the actions against the Buzos and praised the CDR
(Committees for the Defence of the Revolution)for their actions and watchfulness.
