Permits to rent to foreign lodgers could be rescinded
HAVANA, Cuba - July 5 (Juan Carlos Linares Balmaseda / www.cubanet.org)
- After a meeting of representatives of the Popular Power focused on
supposed problems created by Cubans renting rooms in their homes to
foreign visitors, the discussion among those present turned to possibly
rescinding permits that allow the rentals.
Critics say the measure would not change anything, since the number of
Cubans engaged in the trade is minimal, due to what they call onerous
taxes and regulations they are subject to.
Representatives at the meeting said the illustration of the alleged
problems caused by the rentals was provided by the story of a house in
Central Havana that provided "pornography services."
