BECHTEL VS. BOLIVIA: THE PEOPLE WIN!!

How rare for the poor to win. Bechtel has agreed to drop its lawsuit against Bolivia for having had their unjust water contract in Cochabamba cancelled as a consequence of popular resistance. This is a major victory against the privatization of water and this should give us all courage as this struggle is bound to heat up over the coming years.
