Source #3 is doubtful at best edit

Yoani Sanchez has been known to lie about life in Cuba to slander the Castro government, while there certainly may be problems she has painted Cuba as a living hell. I suggest finding a better source, because crediting 90% of a list like this to a single girl, an emotionally clouded political blogger whose writings have been debunked before, is not exactly Wikipedia quality material. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.134.204.247 (talk) 12:51, 13 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

I agree. I have been to Cuba several times and talked to Cubans, as well as following Yoani's blog Generation Y, and I find her analysis to be lacking in both context and neutrality. She writes from the perspective of somebody who has developed a deep sense of self-pity over the state of her home country, in which she no longer actually lives. Regardless of the true terror inflicted by the Cuban state, I would recommend finding a trustworthy source. If no credible sources are found (this message was posted over a year ago!) then maybe we should shorten the list to verifiable instances. I am however in no way familiar with wikipedia policy regarding the credibility of sources. 82.134.248.55 (talk) 12:15, 3 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

-- Kaysone Phomvihane -- Former leader of Laos also got the Order. Could someone add him to the list please? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaysone_Phomvihane — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:FB1:13A:52FB:FD23:B865:C677:A8F4 (talk) 08:11, 11 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
