Berri says setting presidential vote without consensus would be 'adventure'
Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri on Thursday noted that calling for a presidential vote session without at least “some consensus” would be an “adventure.”
“This is my jurisdiction and when I assess that there is some sort of consensus, I will call for a session,” Berri said when asked by MP Paula Yacoubian about setting a date for a session to elect a new president.
“It would be an adventure to enter parliament without the presence of consensus but rather a rift, that’s why patience is needed on this issue, and I’m seeking some consensus, not unanimity,” Berri added.
A plausible scenario for next president:
1. LUCID has technical advantages over Tesla and potentially can become one of the most valuable car companies in the world.
2. While current CEO (Peter Rawlinson) is an amazing engineer with experience from Tesla model S, and Greek-Australian Andrew Liveris (Chairman) has unique experience from DOW & Others, they have managed to create a wonderful car but failed at production, putting company’s future at risk, even bankruptcy.
3. Considering Saudi is largest shareholder, they should replace top post with Carlos Ghosn as production is key and Ghosn connections and skills are irreplaceable combined with Saudi exerting influence to solve supply issues.
4. Saudi can clear Ghosn records with Japan & France (pay judgement) and Ghosn free to save LUCID. In return, saving a 60 billion company from bankruptcy.
5. Ghosn after ending all legal issues can be Lebanon's next president to solve deadlock that will a while!
Why Carlos Ghosn should be Lebanon’s next president?
1. Lebanon has the human, educational and entrepreneurial potential of becoming the region’s next Singapore.
2. Political risks by Hizbollah (Iran’s foreign legion) and its incompetent/criminal useful idiots has destroyed Lebanon’s capability to remain center of regional business, attract investment, incubate innovative businesses, provide space for talent and long-term investments
3. Ghosn has proven history of identifying points of strength, restructure an entire management team, building an effective coherent team, eliminate dead weight, compete and win in most competitive industry, and innovate (Leaf).
4. He has the skills to set Lebanon on right track: clean house, Neutrality & no arms outside army, federalism, restructure public agencies, innovate (electrify transportation, tunnels, mini-silicon valleys, targeted high education, etc), and a bridge with diaspora!
He's been the Speaker of the Lebanese Parliament for thirty years and still has no idea how parliaments work.
