Milei's repentants denounced Toto Caputo and requested a precautionary measure to stop the privatization of AYSA. They stated that the government had valued the company at 600 million dollars and that Caputo had transferred it for half that price to the owner of Edenor, whom they described as a friend of theirs. The author characterized the operation as another alleged theft. https://t.co/yRwKpPNXRd #Corrupción #Privatización #Argentina (translated)
Fede Sturzenegger stated that, in the debate over the privatization of Aysa, attention should focus on the Brazilian operator Arcos and not on the local partners. According to a Latin American water specialist he had spoken to, Arcos had won a significant portion of the concessions in Brazil and had quickly improved the quality and access to the service; he described the case of Rio de Janeiro as particularly noteworthy. Sturzenegger claimed that, in his opinion, the main benefit of the process was to remove a potential focus of corruption from the state. He congratulated Luis Caputo and Diego Chaher for carrying out the privatization and thanked President Javier Milei for continuing to reduce the size of the state, something he said would contribute to a fairer country. #Privatización #Corrupción #AguasLatinoamérica (translated)
The spokesman stated that AySA had been privatized that day for US$ 340 million. He argued that Néstor Kirchner had nationalized it 20 years earlier with the argument of recovering water sovereignty and used an insult related to his mental health. He also claimed that Argentines had paid US$ 13.4 billion in taxes to finance subsidies, waste, salaries of employees who, according to him, did not work, price gouging by contractors, and a looting by officials that he described as outrageous. #AySA #privatización #Argentina (translated)
Milei's repentant followers stated that Argentina's water service had been privatized for 30 years in exchange for 300 million dollars and that AYSA had ended up in the hands of Mauricio Filiberti, owner of Edenor. They added that this amount was equivalent to one day of fiscal spending and deemed it insufficient. https://t.co/6olv167i3J #Agua #Privatización #Argentina (translated)
AVANZA LA PRIVATIZACIÓN DE AYSA. EL NUEVO OPERADOR TENDRÁ OBLIGACIONES DE INVERSIÓN POR MÁS DE US$ 2.000 MILLONES EN LOS PRIMEROS 5 AÑOS El Ministerio de Economía realizó hoy el acto de apertura de las ofertas técnicas del cual participaron dos oferentes. El proceso contempla la venta de la totalidad de las acciones estatales, correspondientes al 90% de la empresa, un exigente plan obligatorio de inversiones y expansión del servicio y una presencia de oferentes tanto nacionales como internacionales. El futuro operador estará obligado a cumplir con las obligaciones de inversión de más de US$ 2.000 millones en 5 años, que implicarán una expansión y mejora en la calidad del servicio prestado. Además, durante el primer ciclo de cinco años el esquema establece que el nivel tarifario vigente al momento de su presentación se mantenga constante en términos reales. Con este hito, el sector privado asume la operación y las obligaciones de inversión y expansión previstas en el contrato. Esto significa más obras, más inversiones, más seguridad y menos costos para todos los argentinos. Con las privatizaciones del gobierno del presidente Javier Milei, la libertad y la Argentina avanzan. 🇦🇷🇦🇷 #Privatización #Inversión #Argentina
