Rodolfo Sanz was accompanied by Governor Francisco Rangel Gomez and the mayor, Clemente Scotto assured that although not born in Guyana, there is no need for scientific formulas or be NASA worker to know the reality of industries, which rejected the wishes of failure during his administration.
He stressed that the change in philosophy of the holding company is to understand the need to transform the raw materials before they are exported, goal-assured-that has not been met in Guyana.
"The worst thing you can do is become an administrator in a crisis, so that my mission is to transform deeply companies Guiana starting with a change of philosophy. The plans need to be targeted towards strengthening the capacity of transforming raw materials and semi-finished products. "
Sanz said to have awareness of the problems that exist in Guyana, which expressed its willingness to work towards a solution. "We have been dragging a structural weakness that has to do with core businesses ... Has been said about the need for countries to transform their raw material and cease to be mere exporters, and that transformation allows for a sustainable industrial development. For many years these thoughts of Salvador de La Plaza, we can say that Guyana has not reached that goal, our businesses remain mining and primary processing, "he said.
Recovery plan
Ineludible the mention of the aluminium sector is heavy losses, as in the case of CVG Alcasa that records financial losses and productive, "while the international market we fixed the price of aluminum and ended up working for those who sell products of companies Basic and transnational corporations. "
He stressed that any recovery plan in the aluminum industry should aim to solve the technological obsolescence, with the northern increase processing capacity aluminum, he said. "Theoretically, the capacity is at 800 thousand tons, but companies use 42% of this capacity ... It is contributing to process aluminum and seek strategic alliances with countries like Argentina, "she said.
He pointed out that to recover the aluminium industry required at least 1,500 million, which would be distributed among companies Venalum, Carbonorca, Alcasa and Bauxilum.
"In Alcasa, for example, the elimination of line I and II reduces production, but we will concentrate on repairing III and IV are rolling, which give greater value added," he said, while explaining that the solutions will be of structural and not "pañitos of warm water."
He added that the expected closure of the line in mid-2008, and the line II by the end of the year, as part of a restructuring plan that will involve technology at least three years. However, he clarified that this plan will have no social costs because it does not provide for dismissal of workers.
Environmental Destruction
He assured that there are other realities as in the case of gold and diamond, thus "we are not going to continue to give permits or producing or associations that degrade the environment ... I have the instruction of President Chavez to review the gold mining sector and everything that has to be reversed and lay back, we are going to take, because there is no justification income compared to the environmental destruction. "
From the social point of view, the minister president mentioned that redirected resources to deal with situations such as the lack of water in Los Pijiguaos. "It can not be the vision of development, one that creates wealth, production and impoverishes families and takes away basic services to human beings."
Management Reorganization
Based on the change in approach, the new owner of CVG noted that among the strategies to achieve this end is planned reorganization of the teams.
While there were rumors about a "move to kill" in the aluminum industry, pointed out that following the review process will be announced changes in the railway management, which reiterated that "everything is under review, everything ... There are valuable people, there are people underutilized and it is reviewed in accordance with an audit of human resources, arming the best teams.
Situation mining
As for the mining area, Sanz said that it is planned to construct two floors of corn in Paragua to provide a replacement activity to the miners. "I will tackle the problem from the root, let's see what the land suitable for the miners involved in the production and processing," he said, while requiring that have approved some 15 billion bolivars for this plan .
"I am a man of theory and practice," he reiterated, considering that "discusses one day, I find the solution and the second day we were acting, and that solutions to be given to the problems of Guyana, will be soon, rapid, safe and with a structural approach to the final resolution. "
Finally, he said he hoped to work together with other players in the region under a policy of breadth and "revolutionary conclusion" to transform enterprises and basic "jugarle clean Guiana." He said that changing the philosophy of work, businesses will be successful.
What Case
Again, the owner of the CVG, Rodolfo Sanz, referred to the case and Sidor announced Tuesday will meet with Minister of People's Power for Work and Social Security, Jose Ramon Rivero, to hear in detail the situation.
"I believe that the conflict can be overcome and workers can get a formula that will benefit all… there are always dark clouds on the discussion of a collective contract and then cleared, and this case is not going to be the exception," he added.
Critical air
The president of the CVG, Rodolfo Sanz, recently appointed according to the decree number 5,861, corresponding to the Official Gazette No. 38,869, dated Wednesday, 13 February 2008, launched a series of air criticism around core businesses. Here are some of them:
"I said that the companies core llegadero arrived, I want you to begin the process of reversing this situation with determination and workers are my allies in this process."
"He told managers and the presidents of the companies, 'You have to do their share of sacrifice' because the problem is not the law of the funnel, here everybody has to make sacrifices."
"Venezuela is the only country on planet Earth where this occurs ... Rewarded with aluminum, the companies do not pay Income Tax, are broken, not a single report to the state and continue to operate and doing festivals. "
"I want specific answers, I do not want more theory and as I do distinguish between a theoretical and a practical problem, I know that in this case, there are practical problems."
