    Bridge Of Desperation

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources...nezuela_bridge ...

    Although only 300 metres in length x 7 metres in width, ^ this forlorn looking structure has become the scene of a MASS escape route - to neighbouring Colombia - for millions of poverty-stricken Venezuelans, some four from every five of whom are said to be affected by Latin America's worst~ever humanitarian
    crisis.

    Another eye-opening find, tragic. Thank you once again Arthur for updating us with information that would normally have bypassed us.

    Thanks Arthur.

    Seems like a country that should be rich, totally 'mismanaged'... to put it politely.
