Lebanon's plan to tap into the oil and gas sector has grabbed media attention in recent months, but it hasn't all been positive news.

Lebanese decision makers have been criticized for drafting and passing laws governing the sector before a national strategy clarifying the country's plans to optimize the exploration of a new industry was even shared with the public.

In response to this, Lebanese NGO, LOGI (Lebanese Oil and Gas Initiative), released a video campaign urging decision-makers to stop passing laws, just for the sake of passing laws.

"The oil and gas sector is the only sector we [Lebanese decision makers] haven't ruined because we have not yet managed to f**k it up," the woman says at the start of the video.



The video goes on to mock the decision makers' ability to brush aside current crises taking a toll on Lebanese nationals, including the ongoing garbage crisis, daily power outages, and routine water shortages, to name a few.

LOGI's mission is to help "Lebanon maximize the economic and social benefits of its oil and gas wealth – and avoid the resource curse."
