Michael Perelman, quick to cut off any suggestive SWF discussions [not
surprisingly], has come to my rescue. So, I can answer Sabri with my
guess that this is not at all what Vzla would want to do. Rather than
use its rent gains for accumulating foreign ownership claims, vzla's
orientation [exemplified by ALBA] is to engage in solidaristic
relations within Latin America and to support with its funds the
creation of regional institutions [eg., the Bank of the South] that can
challenge imperialist hegemony. This does not exclude its purchase of
bonds from Argentina, Ecuador, Bolivia, etc--- but these are not
commercially oriented transactions. Of course, this is only my guess.

Gulp! I confess to my general ignorance. Firstly, you obviously aren't
looking to give a hand to start a single white female, but what you do have
in mind escapes me. (Do I get any points for guessing 'Fund'?) As for any
interest in Vzla, if it doesn't have something to do with the November
regional elections, no one here will pay any attention.
cheers,

Michael L.,
Do you think Venezuela would be interested in starting an SWF? As I
said, if they are interested, I would be very happy to give a hand!
Let me know if you know the answer, please.
Best,
Sabri
