Quotes

"It is true, as the president said last night, that this incident involved the government accepting a gift from a private company. As previously reported, it was the Office of the President that contacted the company THX Energy to provide 'complimentary' use of their plane to ferry Dona Laura to a wedding in Peru. A 'courtesy' whose estimated value is $30,000. In what civilized country can it be seen as appropriate for the office of the first president to ask for "complementary" services from private companies? Remember that this is the head of state and the state has a monopoly on the use of force in a country. What if a company dares to say no to the President? Will the Tax office visit them tomorrow, or the CCSS, or Setena? We already know what happened to a 'Techo Por Mi País' (Roof For My Country) when it said no to a request from the Presidential House regarding a 'courtesy.' And have applications 'complementary' private flights or weekends at luxury hotels, special tickets to events, etc been limited..?"
...a question about whether the Estonian Defence Forces should participate in other hotspots after leaving Afghanistan, President Ilves responded: "Absolutely. How else are our Defence Forces going to gain experiences in real crisis situations?"
"It’s quite an honor to be on this list, along with so many other highly successful Virginia companies," said Gary Shumaker, President & CEO of C2. "It’s especially important recognition for C2 employees, since we all work together to help make C2 the successful company it is today."
"It is time to awaken the sleeping lion and through this torch of peace, let us commit to joining with all of Africa for the realisation of Africa's Renaissance,” she said."
