A Tribute to Cuba in a Rural Community: A Little Havana in the Jungles of Liberia
Among the dense forests of timber, rubber, and oil palm trees in the village of Santa, in the Salala district of Liberia's Bong county, a Health Center, a Memorial to Cuba, is now under construction.
By agreement of its 4,000 residents, a rural hospital will be established on land donated by Reverend Theodore L. Paye and Dr. Arthur B.C. Wah, on the very site where Cuban doctors fought against Ebola years earlier.
Friends of Cuba in Liberia reaffirm the Cuban people's right to sovereignty and independence.
On May 31, members of the Friendship Association and other friends of solidarity with Cuba met at the Cuban Embassy in Monrovia, the capital of Liberia.
Those present were briefed on the situation on the island by the Cuban Ambassador, Dr. Indira López Argüelles, and learned details of the tightening of the blockade, the energy embargo, and the genocidal effects of the Trump administration's executive orders against the Cuban people.
