WHO SAYS NO?

By Magalys Pino Garcia, Agencia Patria, Camaguey

CAMAGUEY, December (Agencia Patria).- There are millions of children in the world that suffer hunger and live in the most impressive misery. Who says that the Cuban children do not?

There are millions of children in the world that suffer because of the lack of medical attention, or the lack of medicines to cure the diseases which afflict them. Who says that the Cuban children do not?

There are millions of children in the world without shoes, desirous of candy or a piece of bread. Who says that the Cuban children do not?

There are millions of children in the World that full of happiness await the six of January, so that the Three Wise Men (los Reyes Magos) bring them toys. Who says that the Cuban children wait for their toys and do not receive them? Who says that the Cuban children are not equal to other suffering children all over the world? We say that there are many children that enjoy the best beaches in Cuba, have the privilege of having confortable apparels and shoes, eat the sweetest tidbits, play with sophisticated toys, and sure enough, the Cuban children do not.
