A Conversational Moment

Over lunch a few days ago, a friend of mine was discussing business opportunities in Lebanon, and what needs to be done in order to make Lebanon a technological hub (if possible). As I started to outline the necessary steps, which I won't bore you with, he came to the conclusion that those at the "top" should willingly take a leave of absence ...

... well, we can dream, can't we?

  • No High speed Internet YET in Lebanon..., Terrible road conditions, Bureaucratic nightmares everywhere, Terribly expensive country and Business environment, very high cost of cell phone and other communication services, bad mail service, etc etc etc, I agree with the conclusion of your friend...

  • u cant make anything called "technological" without the infrastructure.
    lebanon has only 3 sat hubs of 45 meg/each, i dont even know how they can offer dsl with such weak infrastructure.
    more then that everytime u want to open a company linked to high tech. (like i tried) u need to pay someone related to some politicians (which i didnt accept and that is still actual)
