Oh DRC

Since receiving $180m from Glencore, the Congolese government has not fulfilled its commitments to its legal team from the South African legal firm Centurion Law Group - which NJ Ayuk heads - and has - 8/21/2023

$180M what $180M ?
Oh that $180M oh no that's gone, been used to pay advanced dividends, to keep the lights on and to pay for snacks.

Victoria Coast on the crapper has advised that MoM has cancelled her trip down under, after she confirmed with the organizers. Don’t know if it’s true but she is still listed as presenting on the website. Anyone heard same? Not surprising if true. Was always on the cards if this crap wasn’t sorted by first week of September.

One day soon, in a universe not too dissimilar from ours. Sanity shall prevail, in an uncharacteristic moment of lucid clarity, common sense shall blast its all too uncommon victory roar.

Until then we will all keep fucking waiting for the mining licence to be signed.

DRC’s moral compass is so fucked up its amazing they can find their front doors

Everyday more bullshit comes out of the woodworks it’s actually mindblowing.. is there an end?!

Feels like every time there’s some positivity or apparent progress some bs happens to dispel this. Positive rumours and AVZ meeting with CAMI, and then Celestin and Lissette are placed at head of Cominiere, and Cominiere meet with CAMI too.
AVZ still here and meeting with CAMI is very positive but not seeing any sign whatsoever of detractors being out (more like the opposite), or a near term resolution.

New DG of CAMI ‘expressed his enthusiasm for the prospects of future collaboration’ and ‘expressed his desire to get personally involved’. Well instead of ‘prospects of future collaboration’ what about actually collaborating now and getting involved now?

not wanting to be a debbie downer like wombie, dont think the mom visit to aus is necessarily a negative thing. If you think about it, whatever happens to avz in the next few days is not going to take the stench of corruption away from the DRC. It would make more sense to visit aus once they have settled avz AND have a track record of orderly and non corrupt dealings over a period of time, in essence they need to rebuild trust in the international mining community and this isnt going to happen overnight. So it would make perfect sense to me, for the mom to reset for the next africa downunder in 12 months once they have established a track record so the mom's words might actually believed. this is of course my harry happy positive spin.

The other thing is that if they are serious about cleaning up corruption, then the mom should actually be fucking doing something about it rather than going on junkets.

This is me every day this month when commsec notification chime in the morning hoping it's AVZ announcement.

If the ML / TO is awarded prior the Perth conference then I agree with everything you said .
