The delegation began by visiting the community of Jibacoa in the Comilo Cienfuegos District, where it was received by the director, Comrade Isora Fernandez Chung, who briefed them on the project's development. Together with our commander in chief, Comrade Nyerere toured the local primary school and chatted with students. The president of Tanzania and the members of his delegation showed much interest in the activities of the community as they lie within the framework of our country's social development. "Fidel and Nyerere went to the cattle center of Valle de Picadura, where they were welcomed by the director, Comrade Ramon Castro. They observed the modern milking equipment and saw it in operation. The delegation then went to the Ho Chi Minh basic secondary rural school." [Fidel Castro recorded voice] Comrades, this school is quite fortunate. A few months ago it had the honor of receiving Comrade Pham Van Dong, and today we have had the high honor of receiving this delegation of the sister country of Tanzania led by our dear fried, its president, Comrade Julius Nyerere. [applause] [end recorded voice] "Comrade Nyerere showed high interest in learning how the work-study system is implemented in our country." [Fidel Castro recorded voice] Comrade Nyerere is very much interested in education and public health. He is very interested in learning how we have faced the problem of illiteracy and the problem of educating our people. True, we did not have a situation as serious as Tanzania's, but it was serious in that in the early days of the revolution we had some 30 percent of illiteracy and almost 50 percent of the children were not going to school. Over these years we have worked very hard. And we have been seeking and finding solutions for our country's problems. At present we are pleased at what we have achieved in education in Cuba. [end recorded voice] President Nyerere visited several classrooms. -END-
