A Flagrant Case that Shows What Is Happening at AKSHI

The Democratic Party’s denunciation on Wednesday about the transactions between a private company and a media group has uncovered some interesting facts.

First, a company that does not do private work at all, but sends invoices only from government tenders, pays 1 billion ALL for advertising for a year and a half only to one media.

The first question that arises is why does a company, whose only client is the government pays 1 pay 1 billion ALL for advertising? Advertising is made by a company looking to expand in a market or to introduce new products, not a business that sells only to the government. So this is the first hint to suspicious transactions or hidden end beneficiaries.

Secondly, the company itself, in response to the accusations of the Democratic Party, has stated that since November of last year until now it has won only 1.5 billion ALL in tenders in total.

This means that over 65% of the total revenue the company has collected has been spent for advertising to only one media group.

According to the invoices made public by the DP, the figure was almost 1 billion ALL starting from September 2019 to March 2020.

However, the spending of a company on advertising is it’s own concern.

Wherever it chooses to spend its money is still its concern. The number of won tenders is its merit as long as the tenders are legal.

But the question that arises at this point is, what is the profit rate of AKSHI (National Agency of Information Society) tenders, that a company, which does business only with AKSHI, manages to spend 70% of annual billing for advertising?

The calculation here is simple.

AKSHI tenders are a big dirty hole that wastes public money, sometimes with secret procedures and sometimes with formally open procedures.

There is no other explanation.

And AKSHI tenders over 100 million euros per year, so this hole must be closed urgently.
