Ann: The new Chilean National Lithium Policy, page-263

Yes I fully agree. I actually think our biggest ace now is that the government kind of needs LPI as a poster child - they want LPI to succeed (I guess). While their main focus might be on the expansion of Atacama salar production, they also need a success story involving the private sector and compeltely new projects - fresh wind. I guess they hope this will create more confidence, in the private sector, to invest in Chile's Li story and numerous exploration projects. Also our CEO said this clearly in his last interview (that the government needs to push us now). So I am wondering how the government could help us - well via support for the funding structure/plan. I hope this is happening behind the scene now. My other hope is on Chinese investment - as they might have no issues with such a socialist ideology. But if I would have to bet I would bet that Chilean government is currently helping us to secure funding and confidence, not just with respect to Chinese investors (e.g., the dozen countries the Tweet obviously refers to).
