Tripoli protest targets oil corruption

Large crowds gather outside the Tripoli offices of the Waha Oil Company.
These employees are here to demand the removal of corrupt senior managers.
Protesters carry signs calling for immediate management changes, and say they won't work until these changes are enacted.
(SOUNDBITE) (Arabic) WAHA OIL COMPANY EMPLOYEE, MOHAMMED AL-SAYEH, SAYING:
"Our demand is an immediate change of the administration committee because the committee, even before the revolution, was full of corruption. During the revolution it supported the regime and provided them with petrol."
Waha Oil Company is based at the Es-Sider oil terminal on Libya's eastern coast, about 110 miles east of Gaddafi's besieged hometown of Sirte.
It is owned by Libya's National Oil Corporation in a joint venture with several leading American firms.
The company has been struggling since March, as ships avoided stopping in Libya, effectively halting exports.
But the National Transitional Council has been working hard to revive the oil and gas-based economy.
Revenues from the industry will be vital as the council tries to restore basic services and impose order across the vast, war-battered country.
