ميقاتي يقدم تفاصيل اقتراحه لتأمين الكهرباء إلى الحكومة وينتقد طرح باسيل

Its very simple. Billionaire Mikati is doing what is best for Lebanon because he doesnt need to steal. JebrANBESSIL and CLAOUN are beggars and salivating to line their pockets with money. Case closed...

Both plans will never pass because they are backed a political party. A Modern revolution is needed. check out Light Lebanon Blog for further explanation lightlebanon.blogspot.com
Aside from that, I really do not trust a the Lebanese government to build a power station in a year yet alone not go over budget which are know to happen in any country.

They would be executed in the USA? Why? They are the biggest thieves in the USA.

lightleb is correct unfortunately: all concerned have only one thing on their mind: steal more money.

of course he meant m8 politicians only.

and also, it's nice to see how some "lebanese" appreciate domestic courts.

Wow! Now Mr. Billionaire Miqati is concious to save money...or rather to earn more money through passing HIS plan???

I think it's great. A little competition never hurt. If he is serious about this, good for him. In 2012 we are still talking about power plants when the entire world has moved on. Miqati you will win over many Lebanese if you start to rebuild the infrastructure.

will it only take a year to build a 3rd power plant? if so go for it we can live another bad ON year

i have a better idea, If you dont want to build hydro electric and solar plants, then why not get this american company to build 2 power plants that will make a total of 1000 Megawats and fix the lebanese power crisis permanently.

Has anyone t6hought about privatizing EDL? Why do you think so many in previous and governments reject the idea? So they can keep lining their pockets. You know the game people. This is Lebanon we're talking about. Same goes with the Mobile Networks. I can think of at least 3 Ministries that can be shut down and save the Lebanese wasteful money. # 1 Ministry of Information. (Only dictatorships and Tyrannical regimes have those). # 2 Ministry of Telecommunications. What do they do exactly? Let private companies handle this. # 3 Ministry of Electricity. Enough said.

Take politics out of it and privatize it--none of the parties want to agree on the best thing for the country, but rather what's best for them, their buddies, and their constituents.

Privatize it and let the private sector take control of providing electricity to the country. Politicians are idiots--talk, talk, talk, and nothing gets done. Let the decision to cut people off who steal electricity come from someone who is worried about profits instead of the political party. Private "istirack" guys don't let people take from them--government, on the other hand, is treated as a free for all by everyone.

Do the math you people. Listen to someone who build an international successful business.
What did jib ran do beside marrying well.

I am pessimistic when the government as whole is trying to manage a construction of power plant where we have buildings collapsing and already poorly manage infrastructure.
I am optimistic however about Light Lebanon Project, which is a project made by Lebanese not a political party, will focus more on renewable energy such as Hydro-electrical plants without using dams, offshore wind farms, and solar panels. All in the same cost of 480 millions of dollars including the improvement of the grid system which is notoriously inefficient.
