Chavez ``has offered to make available to Bolivia all the technology and human resources for such a plan,'' Contreras said.

The regime in Havana also plans to offer free eye operations to as many as to 50,000 poor Bolivians needing them, as well as 5,000 university scholarships for Bolivian students to study in Cuba.

From Spain, Morales will fly to France and Belgium, but a visit to Holland was canceled.
