Ambassador Carlos Fernandez de Cossio replied that it could be estimated that less than four per cent of Cuba's population was unemployed. On corruption, he said in every country in the world, there was some form of corruption. In Cuba however, corruption was not too much of a concern. There was however a need for stronger legislation. Cuba was making an effort to boost commercial activity within the country. It was encouraging entrepreneurship; people were given funds to establish their own businesses to reduce corruption and unemployment.
