Employers remain concerned about the gold industry
Thursday, May 28, 2009
The group that makes life in the town Sifontes "is concerned by the decision of the Central Bank of Venezuela in which obliges companies or industries to sell gold mining (whether in bars or blocks) directly to the institution with official price "said the president of the Chamber of Commerce Sifontes and coordinator of the Houses of the South, Pedro Sanchez.

He added that the situation is "worrisome" because it undermines the work that works on resource industries. "Practically forcing industries to close their doors, which will lead to a nearly six thousand workers in the streets. Once began to feel in the town Roscio, El Callao, Sifontes and readily take place in Gran Sabana and Piar, "Sanchez said.


What call?

The president of the Chamber of Commerce Sifontes requested that "there is a correction in the resolution because" all employers are bound to the stifling for both them and the workers. "

Around 280 thousand families are connected with industry and they will be most affected by the decision of the BCV.

As coordinator of the Houses of the South, I call for installation work sessions with stakeholders in order to deeply analyze the situation and reach an agreement that satisfies everyone. LMC
