Significant earthquake impacts infrastructure in Venezuela
DW English (Live)·VE·2 days ago
Thousands of families in Caracas are effectively confined due to month-long elevator outages caused by administrative hurdles at the National Autonomous Service for Standardization, Quality, Metrology and Technical Regulations (Sencamer). While the CIV (College of Engineers of Venezuela) attributes the failure to bureaucratic obstruction rather than technical safety, the impact on residential mobility remains severe. It is unclear if the delay is a result of systemic administrative collapse or targeted regulatory pressure.
