Anyway GL, whilst I agree in part with your logic, I am not convinced that there is any political advantage to be gained in granting approval before the election; no Tanzanian citizens will benefit for a long time. Indeed the incumbent government may conclude that they give an advantage to the opposition by granting approval before the election as they would be the ones to be seen to oversee delivery of the project when the current administration totally failed to do so. Indeed as I have suggested before it may not be so hollow a threat; we risk several years of stagnation of Magafuli is ousted whilst the new administration take their turn at the Brown Envelope "trough"....
Anyway GL, I do sincerely hope you are right. Though I fear that too many years as an AEX shareholder and Tanzanian spectator have eroded any sense of excitement or optimism only to be replaced with a healthy dose of cynicism
DYOR change of opinion around that time then selling and promoting another stock let me think, negative blar blar blar, casting doubts as every juncture H`mmm ;o)
"....someone been selling there (sic) share in the last few weeks and it is evident to me who they are".
Then please share with us the benefit of your omniscience FJ.
all I say someone been selling there share in the last few weeks and it is evident to me who they are "same old, smae old" lets hope you are caught with your trousers down !!!
If only the Tanzanian Govt thought like most of us do GL; nothing that I have witnessed in over 10 years as an AEX shareholders suggests that they do....
thank you gaslady
Never mind BG.
LNG is still a long way off...and a nice to have for the future - our onshore situation is closer in time and space requiring just a sign off as all that could be done has been done (according to the RNS talk) and any political advantage to exploit for leverage with a development so close to the election I feel could be taken - no point doing it after the election as the votes will have been cast...
what ?
Whilst the articles relates specifically to the LNG "debate" it highlights that the Government's focus is on the Election. Do you really think that the Govt would prioritise the Election over the LNG project but the AEX/ APT Farm Out over the Election?
Let's now listen to BG's desperate attempts at "grasping at straws".

yes, rosy glasses still on : )
yes that article is about the LNG project
"It says the PSA review is complete pending the Attorney Generals approval. So, not just the sign off from the ministry for the farmout required?"
matherdj, Aminex has already been granted the Ruvuma (PSA license extension), that part is done and dusted, all thats needed now is for the minister of energy to sign off the Farm-out.
That was my take on it matherdj
It says the PSA review is complete pending the Attorney Generals approval. So, not just the sign off from the ministry for the farmout required?
not necessarily...the article is LNG project specific - nowt to do with our f/o..is it?
Only anyone with rose tinted spectacles would ever have expected or suggested anything else. Whilst it was a nice idea and kept peoples' chins up it was never a realistic option....
Looks like post election likely for FO?
