Writing about Venezuelan economy for Western Canada

There is my second article, about the devaluation, with quite a lot of editing.  My editor takes no BS, and he is probably right.  Oh well....  If you are in facebook or something, press that button, will you?  Pretty please?

  3. Good to see your work getting spread. I would only add that the black market rate is also pushed upward by the lack of supply available at all the other rates. The regime is stingy with its petro-dollars, which of course makes very little sense if they are producing 3.1 or 3.2 million bpd.

  4. Hola Daniel y AIO: Daniels word is getting spread far beyond edditorials in Wesstern Canadian newsmedia. Friends, Family and I have been seeing to that for some time.
    My issue with the non-Venezuelan media is, there is not much said about Venezuela period! No news about the floods, economy, Chavez, or anything else that is going on in Venezuela.
    After another, personal, dissaster in November that occurred in San Fernando de Apure, I decided that I could no longer look on without doing SOMETHING for Venezuela.
    It makes me feel better and my family in Venezuela is pleased with my efforts, however small.

    Daniel, I hope you can keep us all updated and informed - good or bad - forever! However, keep safe!

Comments policy:

1) Comments are moderated except for the first day of the post publication where they will appear immediately. If you comment after the first day it may take up to a day or two for your note to appear.

2) Your post will appear if you follow the following rules. If you wrote in the open window period, I will be ruthless in erasing any comment that do not follow these rules, as well as those who replied to that off rule comment.

3)COMMENT RULES:
Do not be repetitive.
Do not bring grudges and fights from other blogs here (this is the strictest rule).
This is an anti Chavez blog, with 95% anti Chavez readers that have made up their minds over fourteen years and thus trying to prove us wrong is considered a troll. Still, you are welcome as a chavista to post, in particular if you want to explain us coherently as to why chavismo does this or that. Though I am not holding my breath.
Of course insults and put downs are frowned upon and I will be sole judge on whether to publish them.
