  Yeah and one thing autoritarian regimes are known for is sufficient oversight and regulatory rigour!

  They are a piss poor insular dictatorship, it is reasonable to expect lacking standards and outdated methodologies as they do not have sufficient investment for cutting edge processes.

  I’m not picking on the people… hell, hopefully this project brings a bit of prosperity to the region. Down side, Russian tourists are a handful — search “what air defense doing” for someone awesome memes 😉

  Probably the suggestion is related to authoritarian corruption, rather than average intelligence.

  I think that if the glorious leader really believes in the project, them it may getsonw reasonably well, so it should be safe.
