Fugitive Carlos Ghosn, former Nissan and Renault chief, launches business programme at Lebanese university

BEIRUT - Carlos Ghosn, the former Nissan and Renault head who fled Japan where he was facing trial, is launching a university management and business programme in Lebanon, a nation mired in a deep crisis blamed on years of misrule, mismanagement and corruption.

Ghosn, a fugitive from a Japanese justice system he says was rigged against him, has found refuge in his childhood home Lebanon where the economy is collapsing under debts amassed since the 1975-1990 civil war. A devastating blast in Beirut on Aug 4 compounded Lebanon's woes. Ghosn, who was approached by the university in the weeks after arriving in Lebanon at the end of December, said the programmes aimed to offer practical help. He will help supervise.

The short courses, expected to start in March, would be open to 15 to 20 senior executives in Lebanon and the Middle East. Ghosn said Lebanon's jewellery exporters were among those who would benefit from the use of software to help with designs.
