That article, and every other uncredited replication that spawned from it means nothing. That's how it works, someone posts a downramping piece and every other wannabee 'news source' copies it. Doesn't make it any more real.

My pointed suggestions was to ignore that noise. (Why even post it here...especially as it started on an SDL thread?)

If I had the time, I have no doubt I could refute that BS with actual fact....read the article on CR20G and what they've been doing successfully in multiple African Nations, watch the factual video of the Congo Govt Technical Committee literally gushing over the scope of the Sangha Projects.

You should not say "Africa cancelling all contracts with China", from an article that is casting aspersions on 4 projects, and none of which involve either the Cameroon or Congo. THAT is so untrue it's laughable.

Even Equatorial Guinea moved quickly during the recent coup d'etat to ensure the World knew business and mining operations would procede as usual. And why did the coup happen? Because in that country "Less than half the population has access to clean drinking water and 1 in 12 children die before the age of five. Equatorial Guinea’s government is authoritarian and has one of the worst human rights records in the world."

Ding is the real deal and Sangha is the vehicle to drive meaningful change in the Region.
