Luis Vasquez, Secretary of Culture and Sports of the Sole Union of University Professionals CVG Venalum Aluminum (Sutrapuval), categorically rejected the statements of the minister and stressed that he could not give concrete answers to the real situation facing the basic industries in the region.
In addition, he stated that Khan information corresponds to reality that cross the city's factories now, however, the participation of MEP Andres Velasquez was successful, but does not share his political guidelines.
Showed that the outlook in CVG Venalum is difficult, "we were who we get to light the problem of false masks, where more than 700 workers poisoned and Minister Khan well washed his face said it was workers' control."
He argued that the minister can not justify the dollars we are paying CVG Venalum, only the freight costs to move the aluminum fluoride, which has repeatedly denounced and are on the verge of a technical closure of the plant.

Fool and liar

Leonardo Calderon, Financial Secretary of the Trade Union of Workers of Aluminum (Sutralum), considered as irresponsible and Minister Khan liar "when he knows the weaknesses of financial, investment and workers' demands of companies of Guyana."
Branded as hard-faced Khan's words on workers' control, because in the order of all the factories that model has failed, "these industries can not be self-sustaining because they came to a state to produce only 30%, some can not afford something as simple as their paychecks and how we will recover if we do not have the responsiveness by the National Government. "
Briquette argued that companies that were nationalized by the National Executive have not yet started "there we have the case of the Orinoco and Sidetur Refractories." Reported that CVG Venalum is producing 55% of its installed capacity and collective agreements for workers in the aluminum sector of Guyana are three to four years overdue, "That's a lot of nerve," he predicted.

Latent fear

Emilio Campos, general secretary of the Trade Union of Workers of CVG Carbonorca (Sutracarbonorca), glimpsed that Khan "is the real outlaw and avoids conflict of core businesses, foundations and gadgets because they got to confuse the Venezuelan society and that it did when manipulated given numbers of Siderurgica del Orinoco Alfredo Maneiro (Sidor). "
Showed that you want the factories in the region are sustainable and to recover their production capacity and do not agree with a model that "only dismembering the entire production system and the purchasing power of workers." Coincided with the words of his colleague on the statements of Deputy Velásquez "because he is a man who stands up for workers, businesses and Guyana and feel helpless before a minister who lies to a locality."
For that reason, called the labor force to promote a national debate on the issue of the factories and to petition the parliament within a regular meeting in order to conduct a comprehensive diagnostic companies.


Workers to hear the words of Minister Khan interpellation within parliament, felt anger and despair about the situation currently going through both the basic industries in Ciudad Guayana and the labor force that each time he severs its labor law
