Lesotho has built a world-standard network of dams, the biggest of which is the Katse dam. Construction companies all over the world wanted to be the ones to undertake the project, and many were prepared to go to great lengths to win. Even to the extent of bribing Lesotho officials. One Mosotho official who understood the scheme early on was Masupha Sole. He's now in prison serving a 15-year term.
Throughout the whole ordeal, the integrity of the Lesotho government shone through, and caught Impregilo, Lahmeyer International, Acres International and others unawares. They were charged with bribery. The two latter companies paid R10 m and R15 m respectively. Impregilo's case is ongoing, as it tries to appeal Lesotho's right to try it for bribery. "Sole’s conviction and the strong and independent stance taken by the court against a senior government official is a good showing of a commitment to the rule of law and of tackling corruption by the Lesotho Government [Source].
The corrupt are everywhere, but nowhere can they hide from GOD. There time is coming quickly. Our time is NOW. I freely offer the Art of Wire Tree-making to share. "To give a person a tree is to give them a present...but to teach someone how to make a tree is to give them a gift for life."

More or less not much exciting happening today. I just don't have anything to say. More or less nothing seems worth bothering with.

I haven't been up to anything lately. I've just been letting everything wash over me recently. My life's been generally boring lately.

I've just been staying at home waiting for something to happen. I just don't have much to say right now, but so it goes. I've basically been doing nothing to speak of, but shrug. Today was a loss. I don't care. That's how it is.
