Second Q, could be answered partially from the reported news and from precedent done by FM in different ministries. FYI, this high success rate from one political group is also observed in various state depts., who coincidently managed by the same political group, regardless of the sect of the applicants. It happened that FM has in Beirut less Christian beneficiaries than that in different areas, i.e. north.
as for equality, I would say that an independent committee must be responsible of preparing the exams and provide confidential venue of delivery and then selection will be fair across all the board.
To summon up there are precedents by FM infusing their followers, sympathizers, and beneficiaries into various government positions since 1993. A rudimentary comparison between then and now could provide a clearer perception about this issue. |
Ok let's be clear on some things here.
The questions I asked were not to defend the FM and I didn't take into consideration the cheating allegations on purpose.
What you gave me here is pure speculation and analysis, and it made me think of a very real case that happens in Canada.
For example, a lot of Canadians keep complaining that most of the workers at Mc Donald's are immigrants, so they accuse the latter of stealing their jobs.
But the real thing here, it's that Canadians don't even apply to these jobs, because they want to be better paid.
So, no one told them not to apply, the immigrants came and seized the opportunity.
Another example is also about the jobs, but on a larger scale.
Same thing, Canadians complaining about the immigrants stealing their jobs.
After some studies and statistics, it showed that the immigrants are usually more educated than the Canadians (more educated, as in there's a bigger ratio of people holding diplomas in the immigrant community).
So, if the Canadians are not finding jobs, it's not because the others are stealing them, it's because they made the choice not to study enough.
And this might very well be the case here.....as it might not.
And that's why I think it's important to have these numbers before organizing a real accusation.
At least the case would be stronger with these numbers and facts
