The men and women on the stage hosting the start of the May Day celebrations in Ciego de Avila pay a productive tribute in advance of International Workers’ Day by carrying out the first synchronisation tests of the Ciego de Avila Norte Photovoltaic Solar Park.
On its Facebook profile, Empresa Eléctrica Ciego de Ávila published that two inverters (popularly known as converters), out of several in the installation, contributed 3.98 megawatts to the National Electricity System, this Sunday 23rd.
One of the objectives of the Central de Trabajadores de Cuba (CTC) is to strengthen the unity of the working class, which with its ingenuity provides solutions to recover the economy and contribute to the welfare of the people.
The Cuban trade union organisation is reading out the call to celebrate the traditional and massive parade of the world proletariat’s festival in the workplaces.
The programme of activities on the land of Avila continued in the last few days with the planting of sugar cane and blood donations in response to the call of the political movement «Contribute your drop to save lives».
Niurka Ferrer Castillo, secretary general of the Provincial Committee of the CTC, mentioned as priority tasks the celebration of the 8th April, Day of the Fishing Workers, and the meetings with Heroines and Heroes of Labour of the Republic of Cuba.
She added as of pre-eminence the ceremony of awarding decorations for relevant labour trajectory and the acts of stimulation to the national vanguard collectives (VN) for their integral management during 2024.
This superior category of emulation was ratified by the workers of the Construction Materials (Avilmat), High Density Polyethylene Pipes (Ciegoplast), Hydraulic Development, the Cubiza Base Business Unit, the Service Provision Unit – known as The Builder’s Yard – to which the Construction and Assembly (Conavil) entity was added.
For the Sindicato de Trabajadores de la Cultura, the Empresa Comercializadora de la Música y los Espectáculos (Musicávila) and the Sucursal de Promociones Artísticas y Literarias (Artex) revalidated their VN titles.
The Provincial Committee of the Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba, the newspaper Invasor, the Wood Carving section, and the projects Justo a la Moda, Cuenta Conmigo and Manos Mágicas received the Distinguished National Award.
Ferrer Castillo mentioned the visit to the home for children without family protection, the tribute to the combatants of Playa Girón, exhibitions, sports meetings and the provincial workshop on the history of the trade union movement, among other activities included in the programme until 29 May.
The initiatives of the festival of the working class stimulate us to continue promoting the process of the XXII Congress of our organisation and to contribute more in the strategic battles of the provincial emulation for the 26th of July, stressed the trade unionist.
As strategic fronts in Ciego de Avila to emulate for the Day of National Rebellion on 26 July are the improvement of the revolutionary ideology, for life, the people’s food, the quality of services, the recovery of the economy and energy development.
And precisely in this battle, the CTC of Avila won the status of an outstanding organisation in the province’s efforts to host the national event for the 72nd anniversary of the attack on the Moncada and Carlos Manuel de Céspedes barracks.
