My Spanish is not good enough to try to understand almost 26 min of talk, so I have no clue what he said. But my guess is that there was not enough bribe money to the govt assholes which is why they said no.

However, anyone who can translate the gist of what she says is welcome to post.

I have hard time believing this happened but who knows.

I believe it 100%. I have seen officials mention matter of factly that a certain percentage is to be given to them.

A friend once submitted a bid for a large contract for some repetitive tasks. He submitted what he thought was his best offer.

The official told him to triple his bid, divide it in half, and split the payments 50/50.

He did, and made a big chunk of money. He had to give the official his half in cash.

I just have a hard time thinking that Dubai would want to do "major investments" in Haiti but maybe there was money to be made.

Nope. English is available. Click on CC to get the subtitles going, then click on CC again and a language window pops open. Click on that and get just about any language you can think of.

For some reason I do it a different way.

I go to the settings wheel after hitting the CC button. Then I hit subtitles/cc, then I hit auto translate. Then find the language I want and click on it.
