Ann: Trading Halt, page-7

Surely there needs to be some sort of balance between the mining companies and the government. It is irrational for the government to be so harsh as to punish the companies doing the right thing. It will mean less foreign investment, unemployment and will ultimately be bad for the country's economy. I think the government will try to close loop holes to prevent companies from abusing the system and will ensure that it gets it's fair share. Yes, it could mean paying more royalties or higher taxes but i don't think the government is out on some vandetta to destroy an entire industry. So far BKT has been operating within the rules of the law and is looking to limit any environmental/social impact on the country. I hope this is an overreaction and just leads to some good buying opportunities.
