Why protest in Brasil?
The Arena Brasilia (Football Stadium) is now the sixth most expensive stadium in the world, behind the mega-stadium Rogers Centre / Toronto (Canada) U.S. $ 930 million and in front of fharaonic Emirates Stadium which cost $ 770 million, the stadium of Brasilia, which started the Confederations Cup cost $ U.S. $ 790 million, see website Curiosando to see the top 10 most expensive stadiums in the world.
The government of the Federal District (Brasilia) has set aside the R$ 400 million that would come from BNDES, money denied by TCU (Court of Audit), and I am the money Terracap, state owns the land belonging to the government of the Federal District, which therefore is public money, our government who swore they never would use.
The other stadiums all “took” money from BNDES (National Bank of Development), most somewhere around U.S. $ 400 million, giving a total of more than £ 3bn of public money. Today more U$ 400 million is liberated to Itaquerão Stadium.
Another tap visible corruption is now Delta, the largest contractor of the project PAC (Acceleration Plan of growing), which is suspected of having links with bookie Carlos Cachoeira, which is protected by the government and opposition, the company is subject to an administrative controller General (CGU) of Brazil.
The company left the consortium reformed Maracanã and forced the government to sell it, of course after injecting money BNDES in the work.
In spite of all the company Delta was contracted without tender to build a terminal four of R $ 85.7 million in Guarulhos.
