Yehya Chamas, a businessman and former member of the Lebanese Parliament, at his residence in Zahle, Lebanon, May 1, 2018. Chamas says he is running because decades of government neglect and corruption have left his district in the hills of northeastern Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley with shaky infrastructure and its people in poverty.
