| Message | Thoouts Aksiomatikos, The Hon. Member is uh..um.. mistaken in thinking that Kobra Energy is part of Kobra Corp. This is em not um true, Kobra Energy is an eh..um... independent um.. company Eh, what I mean is the company is not eh... um ..eh solely owned by Mr. Tedros Abraha and he..no Kobra Energy only has a small 27% share of the energy market so it doesn't violate anti-monopoly laws. the bidding process was not in anyway influenced by his small donation to the Semayawi Association nor the kinship between him and the Grand Vizier... We don't tolerate corruption or cronyism, we are all about fair competition. Aese Theok Vizier of Trade and Industry |
