| Fidel inaugurates educational complex THE leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro Ruz, inaugurated on April 9 the Vilma Espín Guillois Educational Complex bordering the Futuro Lechero dairy, in Havana's Playa municipality.
Constructed within just 11 months at Fidel's initiative, the center consists of two teaching blocks with classrooms for kindergarten through sixth grade, a library and computer laboratory, with a total capacity for 140 students. The educational center, inaugurated a few days after the commemoration of the 83rd birthday of the revolutionary heroine Vilma Espín, also has a day center for 34 infants, sports areas and a medical clinic. The teaching staff of 31 includes a doctor in educational psychology. During the opening event, Fidel emphasized the effort and dedication of construction workers, who had unconditional support throughout the process from military and civilian workers from the Department of Personal Security. Given persistent rain, the activity was moved to the center's interior, where the leader of the Revolution conversed for two hours with children, teachers, construction workers and people from the neighborhood. He commented on significant international issues, including climate change, weapons of mass destruction, the economic crisis and high fuel prices, commenting that, in these circumstances, life on planet Earth is difficult. Fidel also referred to national food production and the need to diversify crops in order to increase production. He outlined the characteristics of the Vilma Espín Guillois school, inaugurated in the year of the commemoration of the 160th anniversary of the birth of José Martí, Cuba's National Hero; the 60th anniversary of the assault on the Moncada and Carlos de Céspedes garrisons and the 55th anniversary of the April 9 General Strike. Present at the activity were Comandante de la Revolución Ramiro Valdés Menéndez, Army Corps General Abelardo Colomé Ibarra, and Mercedes López Acea, First Secretary of the Communist Party in Havana. New Trova musicians Eduardo Sosa and Pepe Ordaz performed at the event, together with the Moncada group, whose "Chamamé a Cuba" was chorused by everyone in attendance. Before concluding, Fidel invited those present to listen to "El regreso de un amigo," a song from a group of eminent Cuban artists dedicated to Comandante of the Bolivarian Revolution Hugo Chávez. | ||
