Chavez said “Mission Venezuela in Old Love” will give pensions to old people who were never included in the social security records, and that over 200,000 retirees will now enjoy a pension from the government.
Chavez said these social programs will cost 8 billion bolivares ($1.8 million).
Moreover, Chavez Monday launched an anti-poverty program merged with other social programs to reduce poverty in the country.
The Venezuelan government plans to invest $10 billion in the program “Great Mission Sons of Venezuela” (GMHV) to reduce the number of people living in poverty in Venezuela to 2.5 million in 2012 in its first stage.
The health program “Jose Gregorio Hernandez Mission”, which has served disabled people since 2008, and the 2006 and 2009 pregnant women support programs were also included in the new strategy.
The Venezuelan government has said that the poverty rate in Venezuela declined from 49 percent to 27.4 percent in the first half of 2011, with the extreme poverty rate dropping from 21 percent to 7.3 percent.
