On the next Your Call, we continue our Agenda for a New Economy series by talking about the future of Cuba. The Cuban government recently announced plans to lay off half a million state employees. That's about 10 percent of the state workforce. Who is going to be impacted? What are the economic realities in Cuba today? Join us live at 11 or send an email to feedback@yourcallradio.org. Why is Cuba restructuring its economy? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.
Guests:
Frank Thompson, professor of economics at the University of Michigan Ann Arbor. He regularly lectures at La Universidad de La Habana.
Geoff Thale, Program Director at Washington Office on Latin America.
