Ghida Twati is a blogger and journalist in Tripoli.

By displaying this poster in an area where there is a huge amount of traffic, the authorities are clearly showing it off. They're trying to prove that the regime enjoys good relationships with overseas companies. It's supposed to promote the image of a ‘new Libya'.

That Dassault Aviation sent its compliments for the anniversary of the revolution is not surprising in itself. All public and private businesses in Libya do it. They have no choice. Company managers who should forget to do this soon find themselves dismissed from their duties.

It's true that the French company did send its compliments, but the poster looks typically Libyan. I'd also say that it looks like whoever designed it works for the official news agency Jamahiriya Press (Jana), which is often complimentary about the regime, and often criticised by citizens for its poor quality of services."
