"Hughes said that the lack of a feasibility study, poor planning, absence of effective project management and the use of inexperienced contractors are some of the major factors that led to the failure of this project."

The botched work could never be resurrected,the wasted money on this project is already forgotten by the PPPites.

They are scrapping it because they don't know how to maintain it.  Do you know what two years of negligence can do to a system that needs constant maintenance?

What nonsense are you talking about? The cable never worked in the first place. It needed to be fixed, not maintained but as it turned out, it was beyond repair.

$100 million was allocated to repair the cable. The money will not be spent after it was determined that the cable is beyond repair.

No man, it was complete and it deteriorated in two years. In fact, from the time PPP lost the election it had started to deteriorate.

And crime started on May 12th 2015.

So money is blindly allocated without prior study? Huh, I will need to study and learn this new phenomenal approach.

You need to pay for a study, it's not free.

The PPP also allocated money to rehabilitate the cable but that was abandoned once they were kicked out.

Why dont you shut your behind. The cable was never usable even in PPP time. Alexi dragged it through the mud and left it to the elements without protecting the fiber optic strands. There are hundreds of pictures illustrating his gross incompetence. The idiot did not protect any section of the cable.

The weird part is that all around me there are uneducated latin immigrants dragging fiber optic cable for cox and verizon and on speaking with them one segment was newly laid from as far away as philadelphia . Alexi had the smarts but he was just a lazy fellow with no concern on how he spent the nations assets. He alone lost 35 million US here with this project.

Bibi,

take a peek at the above

I know a Director Trini woman here where I worked who hired her son in her Dept and dont think anything wrong.

The PPP need to take ownership for quite a few blunders. However we see that the PNC are in hunker down mode with no new ideas on moving the country forward. They are busy making excuses about how the PPP left them in the hole. This was not the same tune they were singing when they were courting the people for their votes.  In fact they promised to turn the country around in short time. 2 years later the country in a steady decline with no hope on the horizon. The country needs doers, not excuse makers.

Ok then.  So PNC didn't know how to fix it.  If these people can't build a proper bench at Durban Park how can they fix Fibre Optic Cable.  I am betting many of them can't even spell the words Fibre Optic Cable!!!

if impurities seep into the cable you cannot repair it. It is glass and its ability to transmit date is dependent on its super clean status.

Fiber optic cabling is done every day by Guyanese here in the us. Every time someone install a fios cable they handle fiber optics. It is cable like any other except it require more care than coax.  It is not so highly technical that a few weekends instruction at handling it would not be sufficient for competency. Alexi Failed because he was lazy and he did not plan.

This fibre cable was not completed, so it was never energized with data  In fact, they were doing repairs to sections, while continue laying new fibre.

Installing fibre is not the same as lying regular tel cable  and if Alexi was not knowledgeable enough  to give proper instructions and maintain quality control of  workers  laying the fibre, the entire project becomes a disaster. And it was.

As an example, laying regular tel cable  along railway right of way is more acceptable, than doing the same with fibre, due to vibrations from the train.

The fibre project and Skeldon factory  are two of the most expensive non working projects of the previous government. For whatever reason, they did not seem to have the experience in selecting and managing appropriate contractors.

Just because a person says they know how to mix cement,[or build a road] their inadequate knowledge of the right amounts of cement and sand, could cause the building to fall down.  But please don't tell a Guyanese they don't know how to do something. They can even find a way to milk a cat, without getting scratched.    

So let's hear about the projects the PNC have in mind.  Other than a few private people doing some small projects I have not heard of anything new except for sitting and waiting for Oil to flow.

The discussion is about laying cable...not layin pipe.

Girl, like you want to hear "dead silence"!!

Better than wasting billions on failed projects such as Skelton Factory, Fibre optic cable, the Marriott, Flip road building experiment, the wharf that floated away just to name a few that ended up enriching the Oligarchs.  You all quiet about this because "collie" must support "collie" mentality.

The people don't want to hear your excuses, they want to see concrete plans for moving the economy forward. When in opposition the PNC bragged that they had the answers. So far the only economic plan we see from these thiefmen is to wait for oil. I don't see how you supporters are on still board with this strategy after they promised the world.
