Wednesday, August 17, 2011


\ The opening of a market in telecommunications in Costa Rica could make Racsa, one of the most profitable subsidiaries of the state-owned electricity and telecoms company, ICE.\ \ But foot-dragging over the implementation of new business plans has combined with suspicions that political strings are being pulled. Its workers claim that Racsa has been left as an empty shell.\ \ The workers claim that, because of the shortcomings of Racsa, private companies are having to do the work that it has been assigned.\ \ Original source (in Spanish): La República\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
