battikh wroteAnd do you know if Basil didn't do anything to improve things, or tried but wasn't able to due to political reasons? coz it's very different.
Because it is directly visible from what he talks. He talks for example to do FTTH in Hamra. WTF? Why they need 1Gbit(even more over GPON's for example) to each home, if total capacity to country less?
Rest of his "plans" was total nonsense also.
battikh wroteI still don't understand why you throw all your blame on him personally. What's weird is that you actually know that such a behavior is wrong as you criticize him (and most lebanese) for always blaming israel and syria for all their problems (which is true, lebanese do that way too much, just as an excuse to sit and do nothing), but yet, you do the same by blindly blaming basil for everything, even though what you are criticizing is not under his responsibility.
Because he was responsible to bring to country decent internet, and i believe orange party and their zombie followers, directly or indirectly i was trying to help them. My trust has been betrayed by this... i dont have words for him, and his father-in-law, old looser, who left his soldiers and run away to France. I had hope at least in this country you have good politicians, but i was wrong.
1- you criticized that he closed an illegal station. But what's wrong in closing something that is illegal? Ok, you find the law that renders it illegal as wrong, but this law was created by previous ministers.
Example. Do you know thing called tax amnesty? Well it can be something similar. If someone give bandwidth on Ogero, even more expensive, we will switch without thinking in one day. Even we need to pay in advance. Smart governor will do like that. It won't hurt business and will close illegal case.
Stupid people like Bassil will appear on TV, flex his miscles, make big booom somewhere (even it hurts many people) and tell "Ya, dude, look, i'm so cooool, i'm so strooong".
Btw we paid for Ogero in advance for capacity, when Seniour Bassil was on chair. We paid and got nothing.
2- you criticized the outdated laws applied on businesses and investors, this has no relation with basil, not even with his ministry.
He is close to head of party, and part is in one of largest "alliances". It is in their power to change that. And actually he can propose that instead of appearing on TV and showing how he is cool.
3- you criticized him for not doing anything. you don't even know if he tries but couldn't, tried and things are in progress or just did nothing. he took office for a very short time and drastic changes during this small period is politically impossible, specially when you have opponents putting sticks in your wheels. again, other ministries are involved if he wants to make changes, key ministries that were with his opponents and most of the employees of his own ministry are people who were hired by the previous ministers, people against him politically.
Yep. Drop down prices for cell for few penny - biggest victory he archieve.
Money laundry with Alfa (was floating in the news), money laundry with call centers - another personal victory.
Crazy spendings for FTTH in Hamra - another one... it is like family who don't know how to pay tomorrow for electricity - taking loan for brand new sportcar.
4- criticized him that he is corrupt. fine, don't know about that, but probably. but how is this related to the outdated laws and the lack of improvement in the infrastructure?
Corrupted people think about their own pocket only. And if at same time they lie that they fight with corruption, it is even worse, they will prefer to do damage for country, but fill their pocket. Such people big evil and it is better to avoid them as much as possible. They can leave ruins behind them if they get too much power.
