What has this got to do with PORTS in Brasil!!?

Good on you Dilma ... pragmatic governance; and now, well into your presidency, you can risk annoying the Left wing zealots by expanding private sector participations.

Excellent news for Brasil and she vetoed the draconian sections originally designed to 'help' friends of past governments.

Looks like the road to success is starting at last.

Now if she only got rid of the liar Mantega and replaced him with someone who has a brain and does not mislead investors.
