It’s just another scheme to enrich the regime’s cronies.
Correct. These are rigged contract mechanisms feeding the Congressional power structure coffers. They’ve been the most corrupt construction contracts with kickbacks to highly placed politicians. For the last decade they have been awarded and funded at more than twice their construction cost and with the poorest designs, causing twice as many maintenance and repair projects. Those approving them don’t mind their gross inefficiencies because they can now justify repairs by the same players, but several years later in different corporations playing the same game.
