World Business Report

Available for over a year

Venezuelans are going to the polls on Sunday to elect all 167 members of the National Assembly amid tension caused by the country's worsening economic decline. Not only has Venezuela been hit hard by the continuing low price of oil, its main export, it also has the continent's highest inflation rate and is suffering from chronic shortages of some basic goods. The 麻豆社's Daniel Pardo has been gauging sentiment among voters in the country's capital, Caracas. (Photo: Pedestrians pass Venezuela's National Assembly ahead of Sunday's elections.
