“...and placed under the authority of the minister having mines in his attribution…”.
So no statutory independence - they’ll be taking their riding instructions from the very people that need this level of oversight and investigation. You couldn’t even make this up.
Alternatively, it‘s another ticking time bomb. “Right, you fuckers. No more mining leases until we figure out what’s going on”. Two years later…. Or am i being paranoid now?
Lay it all on the line I say MB. Go for it, post everything in a methodical manner, so it’s not lost if posted all at once.@Mr Inappropriate and @Spikerama
I’m after your opinions fella’s. I’ve got a fair bit of media saved on how corrupt the DRC is…. and given Tshisekedi, Lukonde, N’samba have all known about the corruption for over a year now and haven’t done anything about it and the DRC Mining Week is coming up in June, I’m thinking of putting all of it out there ahead of the event highlighting how corrupt the DRC is, any thoughts?
Haven’t seen any sign of the government helping us out and apart from Marius posting a few replies, all I’m reading is now the govt knows how big our project is they want to take back more for themselves
Sick of their corruption on top of Zigin’s but at least from what I read they can’t take it off us

I reckon you should pull hand brake for a little bit ; ye I know it’s near 12 months ; might be worth seeing how MMCS ICC flows and about 10 days after that .. just imo@Mr Inappropriate and @Spikerama

It’s a good question, MB. A few weeks back we were told to lay off the attacks on DRC public officials, presumably because the messages were cutting close to the bone. On the (untested) assumption the Uncle Nige would like things to continue that way, my thinking is that we should go hard at Z, plus any other “non-state actors” that warrant attention.@Mr Inappropriate and @Spikerama

I know he has a big following but seriously, how many wrong calls do you get & still retain credibility? Wait a minute, I'll just ask Nigel....
I am with you on all those false calls he has made, hence “ believe what you want from his post” disclaimer.
With Jens playing the same tune so I questioned him instead. Let’s see what he has to add. Again, what Jens says wont change anything either, unless it’s backed by ASX’s announcement.

I agreeHi Red, don't get me wrong, I wasn't having a go at you.
I'm just sick of these people who are apparently "in the know" predicting the outcome & being completely wrong every time.
It'll be interesting to see how Jens responds & what comes out of the ICC.

In other words, rather than going after government officials, i’d be inclined at this time to go after those entities that create the opportunity for corruption to exist and initiate corrupt dealings (jeez, that sounded like something from Hollow Men but hopefully you get my drift). I’ll share more via PM.
To the direct question about laying it all on the line leading into mining week, i‘m torn, but probably erring on the side of pointing out the circumstances rather than naming officials. I’d reach out to AVZ directly on that one and ask how upset they’d be if you went ahead…
@Misfits
The Ides of March has come and gone…. Methodical May is perfect timing
No need to directly blame those politicians mentioned, there is more than enough evidence to show international investors corruption in the DRC is as bad as it was under Kabila
It’s up to Tshisekedi, Lukonde, N’samba, Kazadi, Paluku etc to prove that the DRC isn’t corrupt and that it’s a safe place to invest
This post from Sam (below) shows Jules Alingete is the only one who’s not corrupt…. The only thing I would disagree with Jules’ comments is he could have said ‘colluded with’ rather than ‘underestimated’
