FIRST:
Slim and fell to third place in the list of billionaires.Will reappear in greater trio of Forbes? has long Carlos Slim , has America Movil concentrator - Telmex and Telcel, I knew the school reform law to telecommunications was not going to be favorable . But what I did not imagine, to tell by his reaction is to go out so bad.
The Federal Telecommunications Institute (Ifetel) had declared dominant, and before you legally forced, and had begun to divest and downsize to facilitate telephone competition.
His surprise is that the secondary law reversed a ruling body said she would have to open the interconnection at regulated prices.
The interconnection of yore is the latest installment in the telephone network, owned by Telmex, where all companies that provide this service have to pay the price fixed by them. If not accepted, not connected. The secondary law states that there will be no rate regulation. Zero says, the cost of interconnection cost you nothing.
This resulted in the explosion of Slim. America Movil paid Friday made a page-variable cost between 120 and 260 thousand dollars each, in the press of the city of Mexico surprised to say that a law requiring a company to invest, then force her to sell to its competitors services with a value of zero dollars. His angry interconnection claim was deployed in 16 lines of 36, which included his complaint because it excluded also aspire to an open channel for at least two years.
By cancellation of that longing which Slim worked and invested for five years, used only five lines deployed. Nobody raise your eyes, everything has to do with the scale of the business.
Television, part of the entertainment industry, with an annual value of four thousand 500 million dollars, but the interconnection Slim generates annually, doing virtually nothing out of managing the cash register, seven billion dollars. That income, requiring no additional investment, gave every year billions of dollars which placed him as the world's richest man in the list of Forbes .
The law school also impact the list.
Before it enters into force the telecommunications law in Mexico,Slim and fell to third place in the list of billionaires.
SECOND:
The shouting on Avenida Chapultepec . Until Monday, all players in the field of telecommunications had, except for MVS and Dish of Joaquín Vargas , a common enemy:
Carlos Slim , has America Movil, Telmex and Telcel concentrator. To face the colossus of telecommunications, it was clear, had to join the industry giants.
So, walked hand in hand Emilio Azcarraga of Televisa, Ricardo Salinas of Grupo Azteca and camera groups all pay television, CANITEC, whose president Alejandro Puente was always the first to shoot press deployed against Slim and company.
States to snatch first a part of the telecommunications market that dominates about 70%, and on the other, shut the road to enter the television and that, given his talent and drive, start to hurt their business broadcasting.
The partnership was broken with the introduction of high telecommunications law, on Monday, when the devil on the left shoulder of Azcarraga suggested that if the maximum state monopoly capitalism, even perverse, that would preserve it.
This is what explains rational spokesmen Televisa launched public say that the law was poor and discriminated unfinished business arena. The law itself does not harm Televisa, because it opens you remove the bolt that had put him three weeks ago Ifetel could not have any events of any kind exclusively, since some like the finals of the World Cup Football, Champions or the classic Mexican soccer, which generate a high income from advertising. The key to that door that secondary law is breaking down the system and pay TV satellite television channels open, which may transmit other exclusive events of this nature. So, what blocked them on a path, that of unblocked them together.
Small favor for Televisa, which has not been made. Unlike other players who saw in controls America Movil and Televisa, which also dominates about 70% of the market-broadcasting, a first for the competition, the company Azcarraga, who had lined the army against Slim, broke with them.
That competition was good for a first phase against the common enemy, but now that the law of the jungle appeared momentarily in the middle of telecommunications, saw the opportunity to play around, since the end of the day what worst that can happen is to stay as it is.
THIRD:
How ugly are worn on the Blue Republic .
With the newspaper Reforma as spear tip, PAN coordinator enemies in Congress, Luis Alberto Villarreal , take weeks providing anonymous information that ensures that charged fees mayors to help them improve their budgets. In a climactic moment, and perhaps return, the newspaper reported on Thursday that it was investigating the PGR.
The reality was very different, and what he said, also ratified by the RMP did not investigate him but, on complaint of the deputy, are finding out who may have participated in an act of corruption, if one is involved legislators, or one bribe, if one of the mayors paid him one of them to receive privileges.
Reform erred in 180 degrees, ignorance that coincided with a new line of attack for the group to which it belongs, which is to Gustavo Madero , seeking re-election as party president.
Madero was the victim of a video that was circulated by email to members of the PAN, where he decries. His campaign reported to the Electoral Commission Party to Ernesto Cordero , his opponent, whose team blamed, with expert evidence in hand, having been the authors of what they called "black and smear campaign." Cordero said he is not responsible, as his team has said it is not responsible for the attacks on Villarreal. Among maderistas not believe them and no outrage.
One of them and said to wait, that the counterattack is coming.
