The Qaterijis: It Pays To Be a Loyal Front for Bashar al-Assad

The Qaterjis claim that their ongoing massive project in Aleppo will have:


• An area of 3 million square meters, constituting 357 industrial facilities


• 300,000 direct and indirect job opportunities


• A self-sufficient power source, using renewable energy, producing 150 megawatts


• A construction plan scheduled to be completed within 12 months.


The Qaterjis exemplify the fusion of warlordism, privatization, and corruption in Syria.
