Hugo aint getting that gold back anytime soon.
Chavez has some good ideas, nationalising mines and major corporations so the people get the benefit of them................it works well in theory, in principle, not so much.

Maybe this has more to do with it? OPEC States that Venezuela has World’s Largest Oil Reserves Written by Joao Peixe Friday, 19 August 2011 00:02 The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, a notoriously conservative organization, has stated that Venezuela has world’s largest oil reserves, even exceeding those of OPEC’s top producer, Saudi Arabia. Oil production in Venezuela is under the control of the state-owned Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. company, or PDVSA. Petroleum Intelligence Weekly lists PDVSA as the world's fourth largest oil company, due to its proven reserves, production, refining and sales, MercoPress news agency reported. PDVSA has recently been roiled by a pension scandal where millions were lost when they were invested in a Madoff-type Ponzi scheme overseen by Francisco Illarramendi, a Connecticut-based hedge fund manager with joint U.S.-Venezuelan citizenship, who used to work as a U.S.-based advisor to PDVSA. PDVSA revenues underwrite many of the progressive social programs of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Concerned about the ongoing effects of the global recession on the national economy, on Wednesday President Chavez said that he would repatriate $11 billion in gold reserves held in overseas banks and diversify the nation’s fiscal reserves away from Western nations and into emerging economies like China, Russia and Brazil. Venezuela’s gold reserves of $18.3 billion represent two-thirds of the country’s total reserves, with $11.1 billion currently held in foreign banks and the remaining $7.2 billion residing in Venezuela’s Central Bank.

Knowing how to make friends. www.hugochavez.co.uk/news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/7585330.stmnews.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4774167.stm'Offence' A skilled orator who is known for his marathon TV speeches, Mr Chavez becomes even more animated when he starts talking about the Bush administration. So, when a journalist from the BBC's Spanish-American service asked him whether he was behaving a bit like his arch-enemy George W Bush by taking a "you're with us or against us" attitude, his pause electrified the audience. As the guests - many from the UK groups which have enthusiastically expressed their support for him - held their breath, Mr Chavez looked truly aghast. "It is the first time I have been offended this way in public - to be compared to the biggest perpetrator of genocide the world has known," he said in a low voice. "To be compared to an assassin, someone who has committed genocide, an immoral man who should be put in jail by an international court. What exactly are these attitudes? "Have we invaded any country?" he asked to great applause from the guests. It was the second day of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's private visit to London, and his supporters were there outside City Hall to make sure he felt welcome. blogs.ft.com/beyond-brics/#axzz1VmDPiFJcAngel Falls to be renamed Kerepakupai Meru Better than Angel Blood Falls if things go the way they usually do ! thaitouristinfo.blogspot.com/2009/12/angel-falls-to-be-renamed-kerepakupai.htmlwww.hermes-press.com/barbaric_annihilation.htm
