SIERRA DE CUBITAS, CAMAGÜEY. - Pessimism is a missing word of the language of the inhabitants of this municipality and of the Popular Council Brazil, of the territory of Esmeralda, who replace with the term confidence and to grow in confidence before the adversities generated by the powerful hurricane “Irma“.
Early in the morning of Tuesday, in different streets of the locality of Sola, municipal head of Sierra de Cubitas, Communities workpeople were surprised in cleaning works, among them Leonismirer Miranda Durán, worker of the brigade of construction. “We will not move back until we do not finish”, disposition shown by those of other areas of this budgeted institution.
The barrier against the speculators and the hoarding was possible to find it, for example, in the point of sale “The Olympus”. There was yucca, sweet potato, banana, orange and pig to the sale, but with a limit so that the biggest quantity of persons could buy, assured the young manager of the establishment, Yunier Tejeda Ricardo.
The vice-president of the Council of Municipal Defense, Odalys Mena Castro, before continuing the journey in Sierra de Cubitas and the places, where one was working arduously, moved forward that 947 hectares of different cultivation were affected, among them of orange, lemon, grapefruit and of different cultivation a number of about 183 hectares as yucca, banana, and plantain, in addition to taro, an important production that was encouraged.
It turned out to be urgent to meet brigades of workpeople of the electrical branch who were working to return before the midday the service to the community the Filial, as, they intensify the efforts in a line that it feeds Sola, Minas, Senado and to Altagracia so that on Wednesday in the evening to return the electricity to these places, with special emphasis on the first one of these establishments.
Of course, it comprises to drive in posts of the 31 knocked down by Irma in the municipality and to stretch cables, almost in the biggest percentage also in the soil that needs to recover so that they go along them the energy.

Yuisneidy Fabregas Delgado, chief of one of the brigades of energy workpeople, assured that the first mission was to restore of the line of sub-broadcast that feeds the town of Sola and with a good work intention, since it blunts the sun and until it gets dark.
Inside this group, we find a 26-year-old girl, Yurisleidy González Iglesias, made responsible with that there are fulfilled all the norms of health and of protection of the electrical ones who surrender to a work of very much rigor and risk. “The groups have disposition to recover the service of the lines and that the electricity is restored as rapidly as possible”.
Walking along one of the streets of La Filial, after asked about the UBPC Cuba - Argentina, Enrique Espinosa Carrazana, agricultural worker of this entity put us to the speech with Antonio Bautista Torres, who resides in these properties 47 years ago and has been manager of the group for 13 years.
Espinosa Carrazana illustrates that it is very painful to see how their effort was disappearing in a little bit. “The truth is that that gives one desire to cry and come there and see to all these like that plants toned, thrown in the floor, it is painful. The hand put me in the head and handyman: What this is!.
“The disposition of the group is to be employed at what is; of 94 workers Irma affected 28 of the houses”, told Espinosa Carrazana, who invited to cover, first, the orange plantations. In full field 64, Ricardo Reynoso Arteaga, with a perspiration that him was running for the forehead and was soaking the shirt, does not believe in lamentations. “This has been terrible, has struck the economy. In four years that I´ve been here, I had never seen something like that. The task is to recover, of crossed arms not at all”.
In the farm Antonio Maceo, its leader José Antonio Ibañez Soria, more that to worry for the affectations that personally he could have, his interest is that were invigorating the negotiations so that the grapefruits were processed in the industry and were not left in the field in which the quality degrades itself.
The grapefruits plantations in an established promotion five years ago, of that small productions have been obtained and the hurricane appears when scarcely they were missing two months for the harvest, warned Ibañez, with politic responsibility also and as member of the Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba.
I could not allow noting down the characters that appear in the fence placed at the entry of the place of the UBPC. “Only of the work the wealths are going to go out”, it sentences Fidel's that they treat of that it is not a slogan.
Without being barber, Irma peeled marabou plantations in a stripe of the route that leads to the sugar mill Brazil, shrub that stopped trembling, listed to cut it and to turn it into coal, at least it is my appreciation.
In a crossing of the railroad, on the verge of the entry of the Popular Council Brazil is feverish the work of the electrical workpeople, organized in the province in 24 brigades, as affirmed Yoelvis Sollet Mosqueda, who updated the team of local work where the electrical service has already been restored.
The electrical ones were climbing the posts to return the service to the population and to centers of production and services.
The Sugar Company Camagüey had the vision of joining to the actions of recovery to the productive fundamental tasks and the vitality to the repairs of the sugar mill Brazil as of the agriculture.
There has been an approach of the entity to the districts with means and forces to shorten the recovery periods. The assistant manager of the company, Melba García informed that they did meetings in which they multiplied the message of the General of Army Raúl Castro and the indications of the president of the Council of Defense of the province, linked to the Cyclone of the Recovery in all the groups.
For the food cooking, with independence of the services of the gastronomy, there will be able at the disposal of the districts wagons or kitchens dining rooms of the squads of oil container to process food and to approach it to the damaged ones. It is not the only initiative, but they are going to mobilize forces from other places like solidarity sample, since 39 % of the workpeople of the Brazil has important affectations.
In the small town Jaronú, a self-employed worker, Leider Brito, feels committed in helping the neighbors, to look for coal, to give water and coffee to the persons who contribute to the recuperative phase.
Equal gesture was showed by Yoandry Columbié Cabrera, worker of Route and Works to pass him to the engine and to the Carata that circulates along the iron route that tunes in for this stretch from Esmeralda to Florida and also to Nuevitas.
José Manuel Rodríguez Mora, manager of the siloes of grains of the community Jaronú has been in charge of transmitting confidence to the neighbors of whom the problems will be solved, thinking whenever Irma's impacts spread to other places of the country.
There are many experiences that they can gather like 14 workers of the Provincial Direction of the Popular Bank of Saving, who moved towards this community to support the recovery of the division also damaged, that workpeople of the proper establishment joined.
This are the efforts of the Camagüey´s inhabitants to staunch the damages in Sierra de Cubitas and in Brazil and in other places of the north of the province, where Irma devastated.
