AVZ Discussion 2022

[Winenut]

I can’t work out how the population tolerate this, they should eradicate the scum responsible for their poverty.

If they could they probably would

But what you just highlighted is exactly the problem in the DRC and other countries in the world

Even if the population realises the situation and even if the general population doesn't tolerate it in any way shape or form....they are unfortunately dispossessed of any mechanism or power to instigate or achieve the required change

Entrenched powers and corruption and a lack of access to truly democratic rights denies the general population an opportunity to de-couple from the status quo

The scenario is repeated world over unfortunately

AVZ Discussion 2022

I'm just happy to strap-in, wait out the next few weeks and see where we are post US agreement signings.

Appreciate it.

They mention AVZ being received by Felix on April 1, surely they mean Kobold?

From the 2:32 point of the translation.

"Congo was being asked for $10 billion, likely to settle for $5 billion after judgment in Washington."

5B USD is roughly 2.15 AUD per share, and I would be happy with that.

You forgot the 1 in front of the 2

You might be, but I certainly would not be happy with it - begrudgingly I would endorse going all the way with the ICSID if that the figure on offer.

You are not playing the numbers.

Occidental Petroleum Corporation v. Ecuador (ICSID Case No. ARB/06/11)

• Final Award: In October 2012, the tribunal awarded Occidental Petroleum approximately $1.77 billion (plus interest) for Ecuador’s unlawful termination of an oil exploration contract.
• Payout/Settlement: In 2015, Ecuador and Occidental reached a settlement. Ecuador paid $980 million to Occidental, a significant reduction from the original award, after negotiations and an annulment proceeding that partially upheld the award. The settlement was publicly reported as a resolution to avoid further enforcement actions.

They received half the payout as was awarded. Equadors GDP is 1.6 the size of DRCs. Equador is 40 places better ranked on the corruption index than DRC.

This is assuming the ICSID agrees with our claim and gives us the full 10 Billion. Occidental Petroleum were asking for 3.4 Billion (awarded 1.77). The effective payout was 25%.

If we are given 5 Billion USD settlement, we take it. Effective payout of 50%.

Well if it comes to a vote the answer is still no

At the moment I'd just love to have the opportunity to have a vote.

Voting no for 5b USD? I feel sorry for your upcoming mental state when reality eventually hits.

 

[timb89]

Well if it comes to a vote the answer is still no

Based on what though?

Play out a scenario that you think will happen by voting no to above.
