Jordan to build massive desalination plant with French group, after pullout from Red Sea-Dead Sea project
[IsraelTimes] Jordan, one of the world’s driest countries, has signed an agreement with French-led investors to build one of the world’s largest desalination plants.

Jordan’s official Petra news agency calls it the country’s biggest-ever infrastructure project, which Prime Minister Jafar Hassan has told Parliament is valued at more than $5 billion.
Jordan is poor. Where will they get the money?
French infrastructure specialist Meridiam led the project in partnership with SUEZ, Orascom Construction and VINCI Construction Grands Projets.

On its website, Meridiam says the project will supply more than 300 million cubic meters of drinking water to Amman and Aqaba, serving more than three million people.

The project will take about four years to complete, the prime minister said last month.

It follows Jordan’s withdrawal in 2021 from a 2013 agreement signed by Jerusalem, Amman, and Ramallah that would have linked the Dead Sea and Red Sea by pipes in Jordan.
Did they walk away because Joooos ae icky or because Palestinians are?

#4 In a week the opportunities for betterment will begin to coalesce again. A necessary prerequisite to achieving progress is to discover who is trying to hamstring those opportunities, out the malevolent entities and remove their roadblocks.

#6 The Red Sea to Dead Sea project died in 2021 but had been in trouble before that mostly because of costs and environmental concerns.
