Just when we thought we were out of the woods.
Now we're seeing in the flesh just how messed up the government is from the outside looking in. It's a disorganized anarchy fully removed from the realities of business. In failed states, this manifests itself in the streets, here, within the halls of government. In their minds it all makes sense.
Not saying that some of what they ask for are not valid. Just saying it's a massively slow process. Their objectives and demands far exceeds the resources they have at their disposal.
I have to spend the day going to two different departments.
The other is to head to the minister's office to politely explain our case that further delays for this permit may sink the project. The reason being because the person who took over from the person who had been in charge with my file since the beginning not only is slow but turns out went on vacation until the end of the month.
Apparently we're being told to wait some more. Apparently, waiting one year is not enough for the state.
And none of this is to ensure the quality of the service. This is nothing but pure, senseless red tape. The government has nothing to do with the service being offered. All the government does is set rules they feel are necessary. Sometimes I wonder...
They make it hard for me not to use the C-word, but when you have to go around pleading to people who hold you destiny in their hands, what else can it be?
We'll see. I won't say more for it can still work out.
Wish us luck.
We're going to need it.
