Aside from informing why the goal post keep shifting, for starters PC could update all the outstanding plans that was raised by him in the past including what is happening to the marketing in Europe and Non Chinese (Japanese, S.Korean companies), testing by the Europeans companies, Nicanda JVs etc. Is PC putting all the eggs into one basket and 100% dependent on Jinan and Chinese companies?

The USA and others have classified Graphite as a strategic material, what has TON done to capitalize and diversify away from depending on China? We can continue to work and target for finance from China but surely management is not sitting pat on their backside waiting for that one call from Jinan alone. Have we not learn enough from the past months of relying on Chinese businesses? Just have a look at the universities and some of the commodities who have been reliant on China is enough to understand the problem.

I can understand the Chinese holds the key to finance at this point in time but no harm to seek other sources especially given the size and scale of TON resource that will last for eons, surely there will be interested parties / countries that be keen. Today's news on rare earth on Lynas and the world learning to move away from their dependency of China is a case in point.

Get another interested (non Chinese) party to invest into TON to make Jinan commit rather than TON having to wait on their timeline. All the Chinese connections to date seems to be from the "old" BB days and immediately following the revival of TON from the brink. Did the current management brought in anything new so far? Jinan seems to be an extension to the previous major SH Tianye so don't think it counts. If it is the case, what have the current management got to show so far? Where is the marketing and business development?

And while at it, care to fill in what is the plan if management do not mobilise to proceed with the dam earthworks this month (as PC himself declared) or miss the dry season? Another year to wait?

We need a proactive CEO who have foresight that can drive, deliver and maximise TON's world scale resource. Does PC have it? Is he a one horse trick? Time to work for his moolah.
