Bad news for Venezuelans.

They are not welcome anymore in Brazil.

The borders are virtually closed in Ecuador and from the 25th August Peru are only allowing Passport holders to cross in to Peru. On Sunday a new revalued currency is being introduced, removing the last five digits. In addition to this Maduro has increased the minimum wage by 3500%, which will be the final death nail to a lot of businesses.

In a statement last Tuesday Maduro announced that the young people who have left are all beggars and slaves to other countries and would be welcomed back with open arms.

[windsportinperu]

You are right, Adrian.

Reason why Brazilians expelled Venezuelans from their territory and burned their belongings.

Filming inside a supermarket in Venezuela during 2017 (shortage of food) and later in 2018 (extreme scarcity of products)

2 kilograms of flour have "regulated price", so you must stand in a kilometric queue without losing your mind

2 young brave Venezuelans men were filming during a very risking situation. At any moment could be caught by the mafia aka "police" and go to jail

Minimum wage in Venezuela = 1 liter of milk !

[windsportinperu]

Maduro’s Communist Party is now supporting the invasion of private properties by anyone who is “chavista” (belongs to the party). It is part of the “Plan ubica tu casa"

The respect for private property is over

As a newly appointed citizen of Peru (and now recognised as 'Peruvian by birth') I have been following the refugee crisis from Venezuela and am glad that the Peruvian government opened its doors in the way it did to help people fleeing from chaos and danger and I felt have led by example in regards how to welcome Venezuelans.

The liklehood is that when the situation improves in Venezuela, most of them will return home but history will remember this kind and charitable act - missing from a lot of modern governments these days, and the ones that do end up staying in Peru will - I am sure - be a huge benefit to our country in the long run.

I hope that Peruvians try to refrain from giving in to xenophobia - in every kind of nationality there are bad apples - including our own - and we have sent enough immigrants around the world to know what having to put up with racism and xenophobia is like - no need to do it ourselves now the 'shoe is on the other foot' if the Venezuelans aren't our people who are deserving of our help then who are? (Goes without saying though that we deport criminals - wherever they are from...)

Well articulated! Xenophobia is the easy reaction to those fleeing persecution in their countries -- it's a defensive response. But the grown-up reaction is to never singularly classify an entire nationality or group of people into one perspective.

[windsportinperu]

The use of healthy common sense is very important to make the difference between the vast majority of happy , friendly and good Venezuelans vs the tiny microscopic minority of criminals and chavistas (followers of Maduro and Chavez)

Psicopathic Maduro is promoting enmity among friendly south-americans, but here the clever common sense has detected his bad intentions

Well, I wish these Venezuelan women would leave the married Peruvian men alone.
I got two family members who have cheated on their wives with Venezuelan women that have immigrated to Peru.
Can't they find some single guys?

I have seven Peruvian uncles, one of them has been married six times and another has become a father (again) at the age of 70.

They're like dogs straining on a leash whenever a pretty chica walks on by - wherever they are from. I am sure the vast majority of Chamas in Peru have got more important things to worry about that breaking up 'happy' marriages of the locals (though I am sure there
are some evil minded chamas who like doing that sort of thing...)

VisualPolitik is a great little channel to help you understand what's happening around the world in economics in 10 to 15 minute long videos. This is a really good video explaining how Peru in the 80's was in the same situation as Venezuela and how Peru managed to turn the situation around. If only more countries could look to Peru as an example is mentioned in the video and is true!

Unfortunately it seems to be the same old mistake made time and time again by governments around the world to try and address social divides in wealth. Complicated and high taxes on businesses, large amount of civil services and social projects that end up sending the country into debt.

Everywhere needs some sort of social balance but it's amazing how many governments forget that you need to be making money to pay for all this stuff!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmKpSa0hvOc&t=192s

[windsportinperu]

This video says it all. Venezuela needs more international help:

They are actually 500,000 Venezuelans in Perú and it is been forecast that the numbers will increase by the end of 2019 to 1,000,000

The last days enter in Peru 6,000 per day ! ,but the average is 1,200 to 1,500 per day

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Efdjs4xMUEA

P.S. Peru in the eighties was never as bad as Venezuela nowadays

[PRL.1206]

I would distribute the 150.000 migrants across UK, France, Holland, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland - that would hardly create any chaos.

Why to Europe? The US should take them all in.

In Europe, we already took in millions of refugees from Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, Syria and Lybia. All countries that were attacked by the US.

The misery in Venezuela is caused by the US trade sanctions so the US should take in all the victims they made in Venezuela.

Should be done everywhere with people who own more than one property.
Too many people are paying to much rent to greedy landlords. And buying a home is only possible for the happy few.

Confiscate second homes and donate them to the poor.

Same with land. Confiscate the land of those greedy landowners and distribute it among the poor farmers.

La Tumba, the worst jail in Venezuela for political prisoner:

10 meters down the ground level
No daylight
Cold ambient temperature
It's a place where the prisoners lost the sense of time and could lost their mind
No bathroom and sometimes force to eat poop
No plate for food, so they receive the hot food with their hands
Several prisoner in a small place as 2mts x 1mts

Ironically, the ex-minister of justice, who promoted and created LaTumba is now another prisoner !

* Good education from the first years of living = nursery school
* Big amount of Parks in the country with a family environment and good care of the plants
* Culture and gentle people , specially with babies

I believe Peru will stop issuing work permits on December 31, 2018, to Venezuelans that is going to be tough because things are supposed to get worse in Venezuela in 2019 not better. Several posters have said that Peru offers little opportunity to its young people and that is probably true. Take your local Bank Manager who might work 10-15 years to attain that position and they make s/. 4500 per month (not good).

The flip side of the coin is the attitude I see here within the Peruvian labor force they simply to do not care. Customer Service here is non-existent in most businesses. I was speaking to a restaurant owner here who owns several restaurants and he agreed that the service you get from his servers can be really good or really bad. He said he pays the prevailing wage and they have tips but he said they quit, threaten to go to the Labor Ministry and call in sick. So what did he do, YEP, you probably guessed he said he started employing people from Venezuela. He told for the most part they have a totally different work ethic they want to work and do so happily.

Everywhere you look you see Venezuelans working and I see better customer service in those businesses. I am an investor in a company where we have found our Venezuelan employees happy and to be hard workers. So yes, Peru is helping Venezuelans help themselves. I suggest the Peruvian employees who have bad attitudes to learn good habits from the Venezuelans and we are all winners then.

[windsportinperu]

Hello DC_

Customer Services is well done by Venezuelans, I have also had that kind of experience, it is a plus of them to Peru.

Unfortunately, you and "your acquaintance" have had the same bad experience with personnel threatening to quit the job or calling the Labor Ministry, hope this will be solved soon

Moral: if we want to have long term loyal personnel , treat them well

[windsportinperu]

DC_ At least we have to be positive , because the Peruvian shamans has predicted that Venezuela will be liberated by US this 2019

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzOyi1Z199E

P.S. I don't believe in shamans ! but hope this time they did a good prediction

[DC_20833]

The situation in Venezuela is tough and many economists say it will get even worse next year. The Peruvian government has finally shown some charity in allowing the Venezuelans to come here and work. For those who haven't seen on the news, Venezuela has a horrible dictator who brutally punishes his opponents, doesn't allow foreign camera crews to record the misery and, they are eating dead people, dogs, rotten meat, and raising rats for food there. How a country with the largest oil reserves winds up in a mess like this is amazing to me. With the economy only getting worse work visas will not be available after December 31, 2018, here in Peru and that is troubling. Do you think that will stop the Peruvians from hiring the Venezuelans? It will only cause the Venezuelans to be exploited. Many Peruvians don't obey the laws here and refuse to pay taxes and when confronted they simply say something to the effect, "this is Peru." How pathetic.

[DC_20833]

Hello DC

Moral: if we want to have long term loyal personnel , treat them well

The Venezuelans have proved to be loyal and are treated well. We tried that attitude with Peruvians and they simply made another choice. Employers have a big problem here with employees threatening to go to the Labor Ministry according to the employers and corporate lawyers here. The Peruvians have done this to themselves.

[woodchuck]

I haven't had many good experiences with Peruvian workers.
In my situation with independent contractors they:

* Didn't show up on time for sales meetings
* Didn't follow the directives they were given concerning prospective customers
* Didn't exhibit any initiative or pride in their work situation

This is not to imply this is typical of all Peruvians, just what I experienced.
For a typical 38-42 hour week, they could earn 800+ soles plus bonuses, plus I paid for their travel costs.
This was back in 2012; other expats told me I was compensating them too well.
I still have the business but I only cater to a few private individuals.

Best wishes for a Happy New Year!

What I do not understand is why you insist in making such a generalization of the whole country based on your own experience + acquaintance ?

"Grupo de Lima" in a frontal fight against Maduro !

Grupo de Lima was created in 2017 with the unique purpose to find a peaceful solution to Venezuela. It is represented by 12 nations.

OAS (Organization of American States) was not making its work and was hesitant in their actions, that is why Lima Group becomes an effective parallel solution. Peru was the country who promoted and created the "Lima Group". Now Maduro hates us a lot from the bottom of his dark heart

Actually, Lima Group is not recognizing Maduro as the president of Venezuela, but also has prohibited the entrance of Maduro, his Family an all the corrupts members of the V. government in those 12 nations

Paraguay, a member of Lima Group has just broken off international relations with Venezuela !

[windsportinperu]

Maduro sent an ultimatum to the Lima Group

Nice report made by a Venezuelan girl

Comas is a district consider "poor" by the upper class peruvians living in Miraflores or San Isidro. But the good news is that they have a great "Parque Zonal" . Its name is "Sinchi Roca" and has 54 hectares ! .

It has wonderful areas for recreation as pools, field for soccer, lagoon, amphitheater, small farm, horseback riding, zoo, barbacue area, etc.
