I would prefer the company closing down and distributing the profit whilst there is still some value. The suspension itself isn't a real issue as they still have to abide by ASX rules. If they get a new advanced stage project, then the company may be worth persevering with. The only time I will be concerned is if the board tries to de-list MOL in the guise of saving costs. The best cost savings would come from having a bare minimum of directors and lower salaries until they actually have something to do.

It's hard to have confidence in Hanlong working in the best interests of all shareholders.
