After we learn that the bullet train that would connect the Rio San Paul will not be ready in time for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil is now the turn of a study by IPEA (Institute of Applied Economic Research) report that 9 of the 13 airports under construction also will not be ready in time, with risk of causing a tremendous embarrassment for the event.
IPEA announced yesterday that one of the most important works of infrastructure for the World Cup 2014 in Brazil is likely to be a major disaster. Of the thirteen airports in the works for the event, no fewer than nine are not completed on time. The minister Wagner Bittencourt de Oliveira, the Department of Civil Aviation, gives evasive explanations about the problem and states that " works are walking in the appropriate schedule to meet the needs of the Cup. " Who is right? I'm with the technicians of the IPEA.
Joseph Blatter, the FIFA president, had already alerted the authorities about the delay, saying the World Cup is "tomorrow" and we were thinking it was the day after tomorrow. " Orlando Silva, Minister of Sports, countered that the Cup is "now". Apparently, for the organizers, the Cup is "next year".
are so many problems and so little time to fix it is not alarmist to imagine that the country is going to embarrass themselves in three years. The problem has been a full plate for the opposition. Senator Alvaro Dias of the PSDB said ironically that "in this situation, Brazil was the best apology to Fifa and relinquish to hold the World Cup. If we continue at this pace, infrastructure works, airports and stadiums built with public money would be better for Brazil to return the project and asked FIFA to choose another country. "
Adding to this slow Pharaonic and resources to build or renovate stadiums, we have a pessimistic outlook for the event in 2014. And worst of all is that the delay now and hurry towards the end of term contracts with favored contractors without competitive bidding, contributing to the spree of public money.
Who dreamed of performing "the greatest World Cup ever", which we are improvising, bureaucratic, public money going down the drain and failures. Let follow the progress of works, that the 2014 World Cup does not get flagged as the biggest fiasco of the world history of Brazil.
