Chinese Venezuelans turn community networks into lifeline after earthquakes

Chinese Venezuelans are relying on community networks as a lifeline following twin earthquakes above magnitude 7 that struck northern Venezuela. Lutao Cen, a resident of Margarita Island for four decades, learned of the destruction through messages from friends in multiple cities, including reports of collapsing buildings and dust-filled streets. A close friend in La Guaira, chairman of the local Chinese association, was reportedly affected.
