Poor lads

This is a completely different history altogether. Here's an article in English:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6920955.stm

And, the reason why they're running away is simple: life in Cuba seems to be tough. The only Cuban I've ever met (ironically, an illegal immigrant ) used to tell me about the problems of living there, such as not being able to listen to music other than traditional Cuban music, restaurants being horrible because there's no competition (or reason to improve) and, more importantly, not being able to voice your opinion in any case.

Living IS difficult in Cuba. Thanks for the link in English
