This decision was taken in the Caracas Carriers Assembly, which will be communicated immediately to the respective authorities and within eight working days must be valid in the capital. [19659002] The chief of the drivers of the popular western area of Caracas said: "To survive the small public transport that we have left in Caracas, we will be obliged to collect 20,000 Bs, and although this amount insufficient to maintain the operational units, is the value that the minimum rate must have at the present time to guarantee our users an adequate service.This increase will allow us to survive for the moment and we will be able to provide a part of the Necessary maintenance to the few units that currently manage to circulate, "said Cedeño.
The representative of the Catia carriers said that they should understand that with the low level of the minimum wage and the additional scarcity of existing cash in Venezuela, and given the difficult times we all are going through, to load the right amount would be for the vast majority of Venezuelans priceless.
"The good thing would be to approve the value of the fare of the passage with the actual dollar price or not to index the rate according to the existing inflation levels for the moment if the amount is calculated In order to cover these amounts, the users (students, senior citizens, workers and employees receive a voucher – direct subsidy from the state – to reduce the burden and ensure the sustainability of the service), a- he said.
that the review of the release of tariffs without a coherent overall plan is not the most appropriate at the moment.
"What should be the value of the tariff? This will depend on the reference value we take (Parallel Dollar, Dollar Discount, Dollar Dicom), assume that it is the official dollar ($ Dicom or $ Remittance) if we estimate this, the value of the freight rate public (Bus, Utility Vehicles)) should be around 50 cents or a dollar (average values in Latin America and in addition subsidized by the state), we would talk about about one hundred thousand (100,000 Bs) to current prices and that does not seem to be the same thing. more convenient considering the levels of poverty that a large part of the Venezuelan population exhibits, "he said.
