WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama is allowing Americans to make unlimited trips and money transfers to family in Cuba and easing other restrictions Monday to usher in a new era of openness toward the island country ruled by communists for 50 years. The White House made the formal announcement during presidential spokesman Robert Gibbs' daily briefing with reporters in both English and Spanish.
"People were already planning to travel more based on their ability to go every 12 months," said Aral, owner of ABC Charters. "Whether they can travel more frequently than that* depends on the economy*." Or like the Cubans did, now poor Americans and Cuban Americans can travel in make shift boats to be rescued by Cuban Coast Guard. But though Americans treat visitors differently (I heard even ex India's Union Cabinet Minister was strip searched!!), they would expect Roayl treatment once in Cuba. Enjoy the Hawanas, atleast American dollars may buy some now!!
