05/04/2016

Emilio Lozoya is replaced as CEO in May 2016 by a close associate of finance minister Videgaray, Gonzalez Anaya, who is expected to come up with $5.8 billion in spending cuts. Inefficiency and wasteful spending was not checked early enough at Pemex folowing the collapse in oil prices- leading to a liquidity crisis. A report in the WSJ cites a Pemex official who says Pemex was down to $8 million in cash at one point in Jan. 2016. The Mexican government reduces taxes for Pemex and pays suppliers during the liquidity crisis. Anaya cites one example of wasteful spending, an order to buy computers that was cancelled saving $171 million. Anaya says the computers should have been leased. that was cancelled resulting in savings of $171 million, which he says should be leased.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
