What does it mean when the notice says, “Distribution continues in Boyeros, Habana Vieja, Regla and begins in Marianao, Plaza, Playa and Centro Habana.”
Are other regions not supplied with that particular product? If this is the weekly distribution today, what happens next week? No chicken in your district, but you get mortadella?
The Castro regime is an utter failure at anything but staying in power. What a disgrace!
