Consumers who haven't paid for rice cookers will be fined

Consumers who haven't paid for rice cookers will be fined

HAVANA, Cuba - June 9 (Ahmed Rodríguez Albacia, Jóvenes sin Censura /
www.cubanet.org) - Consumers who bought one of the rice cookers the
government put on sale three months ago and who haven't paid for them in
full will be fined, according to signs posted in retail establishments
in San Miguel del Padrón municipality in Havana.

"All those citizens who haven't paid for the rice cooker will be fined,"
read the sign at the grocery store in Delicias del Diezmero.

The rice cookers were pushed by the government as an energy-saving
measure and offered to consumers on terms.

Evidently some haven't been able to make all the payments, although at
the time Cuban President Castro said the cookers would basically pay for
themselves with energy savings and an increase in salaries that he
announced at the same time.
