Bechtel is doing a highway in Romania and in 2 years they made 20 kilometer of of it and got 500 milion euros...what bullshit video.

bechtel is so evil! they think they can own everything. Everyone should be really scared of any organization that has more profits than many countries. Just look what they tried to do to Bolivia. Trying to kill anyone who can't afford their stolen water. Ass holes

I particularly loved this part "...making sure that local people enjoy the benefits"

So what happened in Bolivia, was a boogeyman's fault?

This ad reminds me of Pac-Man, just eating whatever it can get the hold of.

Yuk.

@dejavin in my oppinion they cant get very far.If Behtel would have come straight they would have made less money but would have secured a preferential treatment cos Romania goverment wants to be closer ties with US.But by bribing and gettin a very high price, they lost the whole contract plus credibility, you wont ever see somethin built by Behtel in Romania or East Europe, word spreads.That is playn your cards bad then complainin chinese take over.

@edw6727 nobody said it's a bad company for it's employees: but about it's ruthless managers involved in politics at very high levels, so that they can take advantage from the corrupted goverments in poor countries, by obtaining contractual clauses that are very unfair to the poor people. Actually I would blame more their corrupted goverments and only after that blame Bechtel's owners / managers.

The highway in Romania is the work of the former president Iliescu, it was a bribe, i won't say more, it's too embarassing, for both sides.The contract was secret, there was no public auction, but will not be paid cos the goverment changed.If i get cancer, i may be on TV, i will kill our former president, lol.
