AVZ Discussion 2022

[Frank]

Meanwhile the Chinese might be in damage control. An article today from 'People's Daily Online' (I didn't attach the link because it was from a typical unsecure site) states the Ambassador of the DRC to China says his dream is to travel all over China. The article goes on to say that Francois Nkuna Balumuene (the DRC Ambassador) expressed his admiration for China, and said such things as "there was no wasteland there", "what you saw were bustling cities, large factories, high-rise buildings, highways, railways and power everywhere" and "the speed of infrastructure development is astonishing". It went on to say (now get your vommit bag ready!) ""the efforts of the Chinese are admirable", "they deserve to be a role model for other countries", "China's steady development has benefited a wide variety of African countries, including the DRC" and "In the streets of Kinshasa, one can see landmark buildings of China-DRC cooperation". It mentions China's peacekeeping medical detachment (and even looks like the children in the village are waving Chinese flags in the photo) and then mentions a hospital built with the aid from China, and how China has won the praise of all the DRC's people. It then goes on to smear western countries followed by a spiel on the belt and road initiative and then onto "Africa needs to find its way to prosperity through cooperation with China". Ok anyone who hasn't been sick yet, now is the time.... and what I would suggest is, that AVZ and Manono is such a significant project, that major industries world wide are watching it, and have become aware of the media reports and corruption between Cominiere and Zigin, and China is doing it's best to try and limit the damage from Zigin's actions. At least that's the position I prefer to go with as we know AVZ has ticked the boxes and has the backing of the Inspector General of Finance (IGF Report), The Civil Society Organizations and even more importantly, our collective group of intrepid shareholders.... now where's that sandwich I packed with the mushrooms and honey.

*Speaking of "Damage Control - Vomit Bags and Money Bags filled with Mushroom and Honey Sandwiches" for the taking, did you see where,

The Chinese government willing to support the economic and social development of the DRC

The Prime Minister, Jean-Michel Sama Lukonde, received on Saturday July 23, 2022 at the Primature, a Chinese delegation headed by Ms. Xu Jinghu, Special Representative of the Chinese government for African Affairs, who came to reassure him of the support of his country for the economic and social development of the DRC.

This delegation was led to the Head of Government by the Deputy Prime Minister in charge of Foreign Affairs, Christophe Lutundula Apala pen'Apala.

In front of the press, Ms. Xu Jinghu praised the mutual respect, understanding and reciprocal support that have always characterized cooperation between the two countries, before recalling that the year 2022 marks the fiftieth anniversary of their diplomatic relations.

“We had a very friendly, very content-rich and fruitful meeting, because China and the DRC are good friends, good partners and good brothers.

This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of the normalization of our diplomatic relations and over these 50 years, we have always worked together.

Politically, we have always lent each other mutual respect, mutual understanding and mutual support.”

For example, Ms. Xu Jinghu pinpointed the fact that in international forums, the DRC always supports China on issues that affect the vital interests and major concerns of this country.

“We, on our part, at the United Nations, within the Security Council, we always plead the cause, the interests of the DRC.

We always come out in favor of our friend.

We are always at our friend's side.

There you have it, really mutual support,” she said.

She also listed some of the achievements made within the framework of this cooperation.

To this end, she reiterated her country's commitment to always accompany the DRC in its march towards economic and social development.

“In terms of pragmatic cooperation, we have worked together and we have achieved a lot of projects, a lot of progress.

This morning, I went to visit the memorial of Mr. Lumumba.

It is also one of the fruits of the cooperation between China and the DRC", she said, before indicating that she had seen, "all along the road, palpable, tangible achievements of the cooperation between the two countries.

To leave an indelible mark on this visit, which marks fifty years of diplomatic relations between the DRC and China, the two personalities exchanged gifts as a souvenir, it is reported.

I think Jag’s reply is the most appropriate Frank. I also don’t think China’s propaganda will make any difference regarding us and Zigin, I think it’s more about trying to con DRC’s general population but the DRC ministers who are sucking up to them should be ashamed of themselves

 

[Dazmac66]

So did we ever work out if we are having 3 arbitrators or 1(or none)?

Campaign against calls for tenders from oil and gas blocks:
"NGOs cannot dictate to a sovereign country what to do"

The Minister of Hydrocarbons, Didier Budimbu, in front of the press on Tuesday July 26, clarified all the gray areas around the process of calls for tenders for the oil and gas blocks whose launch is scheduled for July 28 next.

Faced with statements by several organizations on the environmental threat posed by this tendering process, the member of the government clarified that the DRC's approach is not to destroy the planet.

Didier Budimbu denounced for this purpose an ominous campaign against Kinshasa.

“The option we have taken is to allow the Congolese population to live on a daily basis, through its economy.

NGOs cannot tell a sovereign country what to do. (…) It is a campaign that we are undergoing, but when we have such resources, it is not so that we can use them as an ornament but so that they can serve our country, our economy,” said Didier Budimbu.

According to government member Sama Lukonde, there is no question for the DRC to abandon this process, which would maximize revenue and improve the living conditions of the population.

“We have no intention of giving up or abandoning the vision of the Head of State, which is to improve the living conditions of our populations.

To do this, we need money.

The idea of bidding or exploiting our oil resources is not to annoy the world or destroy the planet.

The Congolese need to live off their resources,” he stressed.

DRC growth trumps regional average​

The Democratic Republic of Congo has recorded among the highest growth rates in the region, according to a recently completed annual assessment by the International Monetary Fund.

Growth in the country rebounded from 1.7% in 2020 to an estimated 6.2% in 2021, well above the 4.5% rate in sub-Saharan Africa.

According to the IMF report, the strong recovery was driven by the country’s mining and services sector performance.

“Under a Fund-supported programme, the authorities have adopted policies that have helped moderate inflation and stabilise the exchange rate, while commodity prices have supported higher exports, revenues, and international reserves.

While the war in Ukraine has led to an increase in inflation, raising food insecurity risks, the outlook remains favourable, with support from elevated commodity prices.”

But it’s certainly not smooth sailing, with decades of war, poor governance, and underinvestment having left the country with high poverty rates, very low access to basic services, and one of the largest infrastructure gaps in the world.

Reforms are needed to diversify and improve the resilience of the economy and to promote higher and more inclusive growth, says the IMF.

“Continued efforts to improve governance and the business climate would support private sector development and economic diversification.

“The DRC’s vast and varied mineral resources, rainforests and peatlands are key to the global energy transition and, with adequate policy frameworks and improved governance, can raise growth and living standards for its population.”
