| Work Detail |
Yesterday, the Educational Center for Research and Development did not expose offers of obligating the printing of textbook chains approved in public schools and some private schools, as only one bidder, Shams Printing and Publishing Company, was submitted to the public tender for the second time, and for one of the three stages of education . Accordingly, the center is expected to summon, next week, the other companies wishing to be obligated and that meet the conditions, in order to conclude a contract by mutual consent, according to the internal system, will the center succeed in convincing the companies to do so, and what is new that it will present to them? Is there really a tendency with the government to include the papers for publishing houses in the basic basket supported by the Bank of Lebanon? Three publishing houses (Shams and Publications Company for Distribution and Publishing by its owner Tahsin Khayyat, and Lebanon Library - Publishers by its owner, Pierre Sayegh) had purchased the book of conditions with the intention of participating in the tender. While the last two companies were reluctant to participate in the tender for the second time, the participation of the first does not exceed breaking the ice, as he told Al-Akhbar owner Adnan Shams, because nothing has changed in the revised conditions book, and the conditions are still unclear. The participant in the tender enters into the unknown and there is no one to protect him, and he cannot guarantee what will happen in the price of the dollar in the next four years (the length of commitment), knowing that we buy ink, paper and other things to stick books in cash at the price of the black market, and we do not receive our money from the center before December after The book goes to libraries. ” Endeavors at the Parliamentary Education Committee to issue a law that supports paper for book printing He called for the tender to be annual and for the textbook to be supported by the Bank of Lebanon, as is medicine, food and oil. Al-Akhbar learned that efforts will be made in the coming days with the Parliamentary Education Committee in an attempt to issue a law that supports the paper devoted to printing the textbook. |
