Venezuela’s government imposed a drastic currency market tourniquet to stop the parallel exchange rate, but in a country, heavily dependent on imports could measure economy already infected gangrene by recession, inflation and shortages.

The so-called swap market, where bonds be exchanged for dollars in brokerage firms and brokerage houses, was closed on 17 and be replaced by a banded system established and administered by the Central Bank of Venezuela (BCV), which will begin operating in the first or second week of June.

“It is imposing a police out an economic problem that does not solve anything,” said economist Edward Semite IPS, commenting on the raid and closing of two dozen securities firms under the general accusation of speculation and money laundering by leftist President Hugo Chavez.

While the swap market is closed, the demand for dollars will be meager satisfied only by the Administrative Commission of Foreign Exchange (Cadaver), which grants U.S. currency in the regulated market and that in 2009 only covered 65 percent of the 38.4 thousand million dollars of imports . Alternatively, the black market.

In Venezuela, governed since 2003, a tight control of changes, which in January 2009 when all information was tightened on the parallel market became a criminal offense. That year, the economy contracted 3.3 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), but this did not dampen the demand for dollars.

The problem, said Semite, university professor of the traditional left who supported the government until 2007 that the administration has no foreign exchange earnings or reserves to meet their own obligations in 2010 and, much less to meet the demand of companies and individuals.

The government, he explained, must pay this year about 18,000 million dollars of new debt service of a short-term, arms purchases close to 30,000 million dollars, accrued liabilities with outside contractors to perform great deeds, or their new oil associations, among other items.

Given that reality, Chavez and his cabinet hardened further Exchange Crimes Act, which now puts the BCV as the exclusive agent of the parallel market and increases fines and prison sentences for those who operate illegally or who report on other contributions, including Internet.

The Mexican Academy of Sciences (AMC) criticized Mexico has reduced investment in science, develop scientific infrastructure, or doctoral degrees incorporate scientific activity for lack of opportunity, and that we are the OECD country with higher technological dependence.

At this, the head of the Secretariat of Public Education, Alonso Lujambio, immediately defended the actions of the federal government and stressed that this administration has relied on science and technology, has developed infrastructure in the sector and have established 75 institutions of higher education.

The holder of the SEP nuance: “The technological development of many economies is largely explained by the narrow link, historically and increasingly close relationship between the educational system, especially superior and research and the productive sector, both the IP and industry social.”

During the opening ceremony of the LI academic year of the Mexican Academy of Sciences, attended by the rector Jose Narrow, director of the IPN, yoloxochitl Burke, the Rector of the UAM, Enrique Fernandez and director of CONACYT, Juan Carlos Romero Hicks Lujambio added:

“For many years, for various reasons, including ideological,” the higher education system and research were isolated from the production system.

“Companies and research organizations, and researchers, companies and scientific and technological development, separate and close connection, which limited against the possibility of a more productive and generate more jobs.” He said that this barrier is slowly being faced.
