Cab, I think that's the message to the Chinese.

You make your move now or you make in 6 months (meanwhile we works with the Ivans) and see how much more political capital you guys destroy having wasted 1.5 years pre-tender, another 1.5 years for tender because you wanted to contest.

Either China walks away now or does something. You can't keep telling Cameroon and the ROC you are very keen to provide equity and debt finance, build mines in Africa, blocking Wally and Wafin and make the Africans pay.

This is a limit to (even the kind of country China is) to what the Chinese are prepared to do.
