Phosphate company “arrived at unacceptable level”, says chairman
Chairman of the Jordan Phosphate Mines Company (JPMC), Muhammad Thniebat,
Amman - Fana News
Chairman of the Jordan Phosphate Mines Company (JPMC), Muhammad Thniebat, on Saturday, said the company has arrived at an unacceptable level after posting unprecedented losses of JOD90 million.
While acknowledging that lower prices in international markets were primarily to blame for the losses, Thniebat made it clear that it was not the only reason. He said higher fuel, water and electric power costs amounted to JOD45 million while labor costs and employee benefits ate up a whopping JOD97 million of the firm’s revenues.
Thniebat, a former minister, promised that a comprehensive roadmap will be devised and put in place soon to address the effects of “this crisis” by rationalizing spending, optimizing human and material resources and increasing production to about 11.5 million tons per year.
He pointed out that the company is negotiating with the allied mining companies to reduce production costs and review agreements sealed with them to reach a better position for the JPMC

Paris - Al Maghrib Today
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
