Ann: Arbitration Proceedings Update, page-44

My theory is relatively simple. If you recall, a while back FIRB would not allow Yibin Tianyi to increase its stake in AVZ because it was contrary to the National Interest - refer Post #: 44241094

I suspect that would be the same outcome if a Chinese entity sought to takeover AVZ, but I also wonder what would FIRB have to say about AVZ selling its stake in Dathcom? Not tested, but I would have thought AVZ could offload its stake in Dathcom if it wanted to and then dissolve AVZI (which holds the stake in Dathcom) but keep AVZ listed, but taht is a guess as ultimately I don't know how FIRB operates.

When you steal something however, remember you don't pay true value as well LOL. But yes, take your point - why doesn't the 'Chinese' entities concerned simply not buy out AVZ's share in Dathcom given the long term benefits to China of Manono itself.

Anyway, not sure why either as to your question, but better have a VB as it might give me some clarity later on
