I am still trying to process the permanent appointment of snake head at a Cominiere in spite of the mountain of proof that he is utterly corrupt. WTF! It is frustrating for us holders but can you imagine the bewilderment of our hierarchy trying to sort this shit out, they must be bordering on insanity. It looks to me like we are going to ICC without any agreement or intervention from the fat boy with the Rolex.
I have my receipts so is there any chance I can have my coins back and you won't hear from me again. If I knew how I would post Chevy Chase praying to sweet baby Jesus!

Hi Ashlee, what is the context of your post? it seems to be a random drop of a gif of this forum and cant quite understand what you're getting at?

having said that, the fact that this conference is coming up where avz remains the major sponsor and we also have the africa downunder conference early september where mom is one of the talkers plus some of the positive government moves on cami, gives me some hope that the talk of august being the month for things to get done might actually be true. Not sure what to make of comminere but hopefully they've been ring fenced and the politics still need to play out on that one. If we get to the end of august and nothing has been announced and/or avz drops out of the conference or mom drops out, I'd say thats a good signal that things are indeed going pear shaped and we're off to the courts and a good 5yr wait to see our money. I have zero whispers and my labrador says fuck all to me other than feed me but there is a body of evidence that something maybe happening soon, maybe thats what you're getting at. I live on in hope until end of august at least.

'WE EXPECT' granting of the ML to be expedited . Was there ever confirmation from the DRC gov or was it just Nigel's expectation ?

Probably worth factoring in a couple of extensions to "living in hope", just for the sake of whatever sanity you have left.

As Budha said, "you can only lose what you cling to". Not sure if he did much investment in the junior miners space though. Not tax advice either.

DRC: "Any public official, political or administrative, is an agent of the business climate", recalls Félix Tshisekedi​

Published on Wed, 07/06/2023 - 10:30

20230607104221644532_6c0da3e03f34bbd34b843b8071171e9c.jpg

President Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi during the presentation of the report of the National Business Climate Barometer on 06/06/2023.


DRC Presidency


President Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi pointed out that any public official of the State, political or administrative, has an important role to play as agents of the business climate. He said this during the presentation of the report of the National Business Climate Barometer (BNCA) on June 6 in Kinshasa.

"I tell you clearly: any public official of the State, political or administrative, and at whatever level his action takes place, must be aware that he is an agent of the business climate, constantly called upon to implement the values of the principles of public service and administration. Public service in general must remain noble, qualitative and free from vice,” said Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi.

The survey of the National Business Climate Barometer (BNCA), covering four hundred and three companies in thirteen sectors of the national economy, attributed to the Democratic Republic of Congo a satisfaction rate of 37% in this sector.

“This report shows that the business climate in the DRC is improving. At this stage, the BNCA gives him a satisfaction score of 37%. This survey, which took place from January 24 to March 27, 2023, covered 403 companies in 13 sectors of the national economy, a rate of achievement never reached before”, declared the Head of State Félix Tshisekedi, during the presentation ceremony of the results of the first survey of the BNCA at the City of the African Union.

The Head of State, on this occasion, praised the quality of the work carried out by the BNCA:

"After reviewing the results of the survey in the report that was sent to me, I noted with great attention the perception of the business framework by economic operators in their diversity and according to the indicators that were arrested”.

These economic operators denounced the obstacles to their full development as main players in the business world.

"Indeed, whether it concerns the quality of relations between the public administration and economic operators, corruption and security problems, infrastructure, legal and judicial security, the tax system and incidental taxation , access to financing for businesses,… they have laid bare the scourges that plague and eat away at our economic environment”, added Mr. Tshisekedi.

He also urged each stakeholder, in particular the sectoral ministries and other actors involved in improving the business climate in the DRC, to "play their part for a clean and attractive business environment in favor of foreign partners ".

BNCA recommendations

The National Business Climate Barometer has recommended, in particular, carrying out reforms on taxation and incidental taxation, legal and judicial security, the political environment, the management of public contracts, the quality of the administration as well as that of infrastructure. .

This synthetic report has had the merit, we note, of presenting the opinions of business leaders on the evolution of the business climate, while highlighting the factors that have most influenced the business environment. It also made it possible to formulate recommendations that could lead to the development of a roadmap for appropriate reforms.

Beyond a tool for the overall assessment of the economic ecosystem in the DRC, the BNCA is an interface between the President of the Republic and the business world, as well as a lever of action for questions and initiatives relating to improving the business climate, we recall.

From the BNCA

The National Business Climate Barometer (BNCA) in the DRC was launched on February 15, 2023 by the Business Climate Unit, a structure of the Presidency. It is a tool for promoting public-private partnership which is used to periodically assess the degree of satisfaction of economic operators with reforms and other practices related to the business environment in the DRC.

It collects data from economic operators to make proposals to improve the business climate.

The BNCA is a quantitative and quantified indicator that will measure business behavior in the DRC. It helps to unseal the difficulties that economic operators are experiencing in doing business in the DRC. This could guide the decisions of Congolese decision-makers.

This tool was set up to fill the gap left by the World Bank's Doing Business, which rated at least 180 economies to measure the facilities they offered to do business there.

The Business Climate Unit on which the BNCA depends is a technical service available to the President of the Republic whose main mission is to study, analyze, evaluate, make proposals and take charge of all questions and initiatives relating to the improvement of the economic environment and the business climate in the Democratic Republic of Congo.


Courtney Franck on X, missed on tse that I recall.
Good ole FT certainly says all the right things......:unsure:

He also urged each stakeholder, in particular the sectoral ministries and other actors involved in improving the business climate in the DRC, to "play their part for a clean and attractive business environment in favor of foreign partners ".

Surely that statement above, bodes well for AVZ resolution, otherwise........

I really do hope the current rumours are just imaginative shareholders. If not then either Nigel is yet again making claims he can't guarantee or he is telling select shareholders information that should be kept confidential until all is official and an announcement can be released to the market.

There has been a pattern of behaviour with Nigel of promises not kept. Champagne at xmas being the most obviously gifable one. Missed self imposed deadlines only leads to disappointed shareholders and an avenue of attack for our opponents.

I think overall he is doing a good job in very difficult circumstances and the facts back up his legal claims but he really needs to learn the art of under promising and over delivering. Especially considering he is getting the big bucks for his experience working in Africa.

"I really do hope the current rumours are just imaginative shareholders"

You are not in the loop ?

I agree whole heartedly regards to "promises not met " regards to Nigel, which is probably why we are in a complete echo chamber now.

Battery metals conferences in Africa and in Australia come september must bring matters to a head or i will be completely..

No and I don't want to be. I think sensitive information should either be private among the bod or available for everyone in official announcements if it needs to be disclosed to the market. AVZ is a public company not a mates club.

At this point if it's not in an official announcement I'd have to see a video of Felix personally giving Nigel the licence while holding two forms of government ID, Jules Alingete there to verify the whole thing, four or five of the bod and Franck Fwamba taking notes, and Felix's grandma confirming his identity or I won't believe it
