Summary
Engineers are calling on Venezuela's government to urgently inspect public housing complexes after two consecutive earthquakes destroyed parts of the 1,100-unit Hugo Chávez housing complex on the coast. The complex was originally built as part of Chávez's socialist revolution to house survivors of deadly floods from over a decade earlier. The earthquakes have raised fears that other similar public housing projects may be structurally vulnerable, prompting demands for a comprehensive audit.

Quando o falecido líder venezuelano Hugo Chávez construiu o conjunto habitacional litorâneo que leva seu nome, como parte de sua revolução socialista, os moradores encontraram uma nova oportunidade de recomeço depois que inundações mortais haviam devastado a região mais de uma década antes.
Mas depois que dois terremotos consecutivos destruíram partes do complexo de 1.100 unidades na quarta-feira (24), engenheiros estão pedindo à ditadura venezuelana que faça rapidamente uma inspeção em conjuntos habitacionais públicos semelhantes que ainda estão de pé.
