The Bolivian government plans to build some 115 thousand houses until 2020, with the objective of reducing the housing deficit and benefit needy families, informed here the Viceminister of Housing and Urbanism, Bony Morales. Over the next five years we want to build about 115 thousand buildings that, added to those delivered until now, will exceed the government target of 200 thousand homes since President Evo Morales assumed power in 2006, asserted the official in a press round.

Only this year, we plan to build 25 thousand homes and each year we hope to deliver a similar number, he added.
According to the oficial, if construction and house repairs are carried out in four years we would be exceeding the 200 thousand, figure that is historical.
The Viceminister of Housing and Urbanism sustained that another short-term target is to boost the completion of social housing in urban areas, with multifamily condominiums like the Wiphala, which benefitted this year 336 families in the city of El Alto.
He indicated that in July they pretend to deliver another multifamily building in the central city of Cochabamba and then inaugurate a third one in Santa Cruz, in the southeastern part of this Andean nation.
