While the president of Venezuela, Hugo Chávez, signs agreements with Belarus to build homes in their country, the Comptroller General of the Bolivarian Republic detected in its annual report of 2009 that were installed as 11 manufactured homes of the thousands that were imported from Uruguay. An agreement signed four years ago, established the firm Metallurgical Union South Industrial SA (Umissa) agreed to sell Venezuela 12,193 prefabricated houses (17% emergence and 87% urban). According to data released by the newspaper El Nacional of Caracas, the Uruguayan company sent many of the homes involved as claimed by the Fund Artigas Bolívar, 45% of the agreed price of about 70.69 million dollars out of a total of $ 155 million.
The Umissa company director, Alejandro Lagrenade, told El País that so far has installed about 3,000 homes in various parts of Venezuela and the rest produce the same number to complete the contract. "The government (of Venezuela) is deciding where to install the rest. The contract remains in force, we need to send some 3,000 homes, everything is perfect," said Lagrenade. 
The employer argued that between 2007 and 2008 we built a housing complex built by Umissa in Maracaibo. In this test offered photographs of the installation. The case recalls a similar episode occurred in June, when thousands of tons of food were spoiled by bureaucratic problems in the Venezuelan ports were nationalized in 2008.

In the neighborhood the piece of San Carlos, Cojedes state, an estimated 700 homes are needed, since most residents live on farms. However, in the municipality deposits remain several kits that no one knows where it will end.
time ago a group of women from the neighborhood wanted to take the shed where they keep the houses in Uruguay.
A dozen neighbors settled down and called the local media. The mobilization got the secretary of the governor of San Carlos, Teodoro Bolívar, the attend. "We promised that we deliver these homes very soon," said one of the residents.
The coordinator of the agreement with Uruguay in Cojedes, Baron Winston, told El Nacional that many homes are incomplete.
"The lighting equipment has not arrived. Completions missing some screws. Here's what you have are metal structures and walls," he said.
A government deputy of the National Assembly of Venezuela admitted to El Nacional that "some say no houses were installed because the material was clean. Others because they were not complete. That is the responsibility of those who made the assessment. You can not make an agreement and then say that the materials are not suitable. "

legislator said the informant mistook Umissa houses with houses built on the basis of plastic that are not manufactured by Umissa. The employer explained that the system basically applies constructive uses aluminum, cement and wood.Umissa plant has about 200 workers to manufacture homes. Every time the Venezuelan government decides to start the installation of the houses a team of 16 members of the firm advise to builders Venezuelans.
The businessman said that his family is engaged in the construction of such dwellings for 100 years and did business in 17 countries.
State's figures indicate that the country has a housing deficit of nearly 2 million. President Chavez has signed agreements with five countries, including Uruguay, for the purchase of homes with different characteristics.
Venezuelan Comptroller recommended that the Housing Ministry that country to terminate the contract, are enforceable in accordance with the conditions laid down or making such modifications as deemed necessary.
Cojedes state MPs Teodoro Bolívar quoted the governor to report on the status of home construction agreement with Uruguay and the negotiations in 2006 led his predecessor, Johnny Yanez Rangel.
The former governor is on a photo of a meeting in Uruguay next to Guido Antonini Wilson, a Venezuelan who tried to enter Argentina with a suitcase containing $ 800,000. The episode led to investigations in several countries, including Uruguay.
"We want to know how far the state is involved in the alleged irregularities Cojedes, if you plan to continue building, where claims for breach of agreement. We want Bolivar tell us if you know what happened to a plan that could address the local housing deficit, "he told El Nacional Juan Bautista Pérez, coordinator of the parliamentary bloc.
Antonini: lobbyist in the Chávez
The businesses that had some involvement Venezuelan lobbyist Guido Antonini Wilson, including Umissa, generated rivers of ink in Argentina, Venezuela and Uruguay. In August 2007, Antonini tried to enter in Buenos Aires with a suitcase in which illegally transferred $ 800,000. That money was for the financing of the campaign of the then candidate and current President of Argentina Cristina Fernandez.
That situation, coupled with Antonini Wilson that made six trips to Montevideo from 2007 to 2008, made the nationalist deputies Pablo Abdala, Rodolfo Caram, and Gonzalo Mauricio Novales Cusano asked in November 2008 to investigate the affairs of Antonini in Uruguay. At the time, the Justice also filed a complaint by a former associate of Antonini Wilson about an alleged diversion of $ 18,000,000 to a joint account that the employer had with Lagrenade and two other people.
Testifying before the U.S. Attorney in 2008, Antonini Wilson said that defense spending in the country were funded with money removed from a bank account Umissa.
In an interview with the daily Clarín, Antonini said it was "common knowledge" that were paid bribes in Argentina to do business. As stated by the Venezuelan businessman Claudio Uberti, a former official of the Ministry of Planning during the administration of Néstor Kirchner in the neighboring country, had set up an office in Caracas where he was responsible for collecting "tolls".
