  Jamshid Amuzegar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jamshid Amuzegar (also Amouzegar), (1923 -) is a former Prime Minister of Iran.
Born in Tehran in 1923, he first climbed his way into college graduating with degrees in Law and Engineering from Tehran University.
Jamshid Amuzegar is not to be confused with Jahangir Amuzegar, PhD UCLA, former Executive Director of the IMF.

 THE IRANIAN: Sirous Amouzegar, Cyrus Kadivar
Amouzegar now plunged into a rambling discourse on the events that had led the Shah to turn to a member of the National Front to save his throne.
By 1978 the government of Jamshid Amouzegar (a first-rate technocrat) was struggling to reverse the sudden downturn in the once prosperous oil-driven economy.
Amouzegar kept low for a while until the snow had melted spending his time listening to the radio and reading the depressing stories in the daily newspapers.

Significantly enough, you may remember that later on, when Amouzegar was prime minister, he sent a circular to government departments that all letters must be answered within ten days maximum or something of this sort.
Amouzegar should have resigned at least when the inspectorate was set up and when he learned about the purpose of the inspectorate.
What is interesting and should be recorded (and perhaps it's a very sad phenomenon) is that, in my judgment, some of the brightest people in the country, some of them in charge of important official posts and some out of the government, would meet and we would develop scenarios as to what happened.

On that day, January 6th, 1979, Sirous Amouzegar and Dr Razmara, a Paris-educated Cardiologist who had accepted to become Health Minister, had shared a government car on the journey which was to take them from Bakhtiar's house to the northern suburbs of Tehran where the royal palace was situated.
No sooner had the Shah's plane lifted into the sky that the streets exploded with jubilant demonstrators burning his portrait and honking their car horns."Looking out my window," Amouzegar said, "I felt disgusted and told myself that in their hysteria the people were completely unaware of the dark future awaiting them.
In a few minutes, Sirous Amouzegar and Dr Razmara, two of Bakhtiar's senior ministers, were sitting in a car watched by Pasdarans, or Revolutionary Guards.

Looking back at the slow history of the producing countries, with the advantage of hindsight, the puzzle was not so much why this victory had happened, as why it had not happened earlier.
For he and his oil minister, Dr. Amouzegar, were convinced that the Saudis had made a private deal with the Americans, by which Saudi oil would be favoured to Iranian oil, and OPEC effectively broken.

This choice was still possible in August 1978, when the technocrat prime minister Jamshid Amuzegar was replaced by the wily and infamous Ja’far Sharif-Emami.
