Brazilian Wax And Staph Infections

Road in Venezuela

Venezuela is, as many of my readers know that an oil producing country in addition to being, according to Wikipedia is the biggest lake of asphalt in the world (information that can read better clicking here), saying it put me in a situation of distress, frustration and wonder, which readers are likely to suffer my countrymen to know this information, why? because we live in a country whose roads are in bad condition.


is incredible deterioration in the roads which are Venezuelan border riddled with flaws and holes, some small, some huge, in some cases so much a means to dodge falling into another hole, just is the poor condition of many roads nationwide that is very common to hear of drivers who have suffered accidents proceeds thereof, which have lost one or more tires, damaged the front of your car or cushions.

In all this the most impressive is the level of apathy of our rulers deal with that situation, only in the Greater Caracas daily drivers listen to several major arteries (Pan-American Highway, central regional highway, road Junquito) call to a radio show to denounce the situation would the government response? no. To make them understand better the situation will put several examples:

1 .- The Pan American Highway is the responsibility of national government, well, in the month of July I wrote this post , which I commented on a mega hole in the road which caused about 3 hours in line day to its users, the hole was fixed 1 month later and the Minister of Public Works and Housing said in the national press that the problem of sewage falling to the road would be fixed in the next 2 months, 4 months have passed and a half have not yet done.

2 .- In the same way, during the rainy situation mid to late November deteriorated miles, which had multiple holes, two months after they have not been repaired, the road is full of holes and the national government scraped the asphalt in some sections, but left the unpaved road and have not been replaced.


3 .- The same road is without electricity for more than a year, and due to the rains have 3 cans of sewage running through the first 5 miles, causing the car to lose control and have accidents Once again, the government is completely inefficient in terms of repair.


4 .- Salias, meanwhile, is the town that I live, which is governed by Ovidio Lozada, opposition mayor, elected by votes in the First Justice party card, here's something curious: Call industrial area of \u200b\u200bmines, has a bad asphalt, irregular, full of holes. The mayor always ready to answer community tweets regularly to the community through the account @ ovidiolozada or through the official account of the Mayor @ lossalias , however, I personally I have 2 months doing mentions both accounts and the account of a journalist, putting the complaint on that stretch of road, requesting that it be paved is the answer? total silence. Interestingly, the mayor always ready, do not answer the tweets that highlight something that has failed to do in his administration and that the community requested. This attitude is terrible and even worse if we consider that the section has not been fixed.


Moreover, there are two final points I want to touch:


1 .- THE HOURS OF WORK: For some strange reason, the national government has the strange habit of dirt (when finally decide to do so) in daytime and during peak hours, causing further chaos caused by the failure to repair roads. Please gentlemen, national and regional government, the PSUV or opposition, as asphalt or make any other repairs on the road do it at night and preferably, if not, do it in daytime Off-peak ... OK? Or is very difficult to understand that this causes immense inconvenience to the public?

2 .- I do not accept the excuse that you can not pave at night because the temperature drops, because Venezuela is a country that cold period the temperature drops at night up to about 14 ° C (and exaggerating this, at least in the Capital Region), if dirt under such conditions is impossible due to low temperatures, the northern countries of the world as Europeans, Canada, Alaska, United States and southern Chile and Argentina, not have paved roads because it would be impossible, however, in many, if not all, large and small roads are in excellent condition indeed. The difference? that some are effective leaders who do their work, while in Venezuela the leaders of both sides engaged in politicking and not to govern.
