\u201cWe had a very interesting discussion with the Advisory Board members. For us, the developers, it was rather useful to listen to what are the myths in the public and what are the ways to counter these myths. For many of us, this is food for thought. Clearly, we still have work to do by engaging with various groups of our public. I would like to note that this discussion is an interesting process, during which both parties receive new information and a chance for growth. From today\u2019s perspective, we have already negated a number of myths, especially in Guria,\u201c said Giorgi Abramishvili, the Bakhvi HPP General Director.<\/p>\n
