USA's influence in Georgia is enormous, of course. With that in mind, the following report seems extremely relevant. I certainly hope so.

Of course Deloittes are talking to SN and the board. Deloittes job is to find out all they can about the company and its assets. Who else knows more about that than SN and the board. If SN have a plan, it would be astonishing if they weren't prepared, and waiting for, Deloittes interview.
Posters with legal experience on here have pointed out in the past that lawyers, faced with difficult or complex cases, always tell their clients to effectively keep schtum - don't speak to anyone about their legal circumstances. This is what FRR's attorneys will undoubtedly have stressed to SN, and what he is undoubtedly doing. This silence is extremely annoying for us genuine shareholders (as well as deliberate troublemakers!) but, as we can now see, is understandable.
I don't think that anyone on this BB, with the possible exception of Looed, fully understands the machinations of FRR's corporate organisation. In the current circumstances, that's probably just as well.
Looed, in his post of 09.06 yesterday , gave us a factual list of the liquidators' duties, and the order in which those duties are carried out. It seems clear from that list that the chances of anyone here getting any financial gain via the liquidators is practically non-existent.
If anyone wants to spend their time writing to the liquidators in a probably vain attempt to get some money out of them, it's their prerogative to do so. As far as I can tell, though, this evenings 'news' consists only of the usual venting of spleen by the usual people, and a polite, neutral and non-committal reply from a probably bored liquidator. About what you'd expect, really.
A quiet day for actual news.
I don't pretend to understand these matters, but thought that the principal assets of the company were transferred into FRUS, some time ago, specifically to protect those assets from the predators who were then working to take over FRC. There would have been no point in making that transfer if anyone then taking over FRC automatically obtained the assets carefully squirreled away in FRUS.
So surely, Frus must have been made independent from FRC prior to the transfer of assets? The principal question now appears to be - Is FRUS now independent from FRC? Does anyone here know the answer?
Allowing the UAE to chair COP was always an absurdity. The lifeblood of UAE is provided by oil production. Even though it's obvious that that production has to be severely lessened in the near future, the UAE and it's fellow producers were always bound to get in the way. It was silly to grant them the opportunity to do so.
Bud Darr's comments in the last few days were probably the most encouraging that we could expect him to make from the surroundings of that conference. Now it's just about over, he can get back to the office and make the necessary deals that his company requires for it's financial well-being in the real world. That, as he has already intimated, involves QED. Roll on.
Think your right, Av18r. Just glanced at his previous posts. Nearly all very aggressive and nasty. Best ignored.
As the book is about gangsters, it could be that they were talking about protection in terms of a protection racket - e.g. "give us 15 million and we'll - er - protect your business from being damaged" (as in blown up, or suffering other nefarious activity).
Looed - many thanks.
'I don't' should be 'I don't know'.
Looed -
Last time this came up, on the supposition that Frontera might have overlooked a registration fee, I emailed one of Frontera's then-current attorneys, who later kindly let me know that he had passed on the info to Frontera. Rightly or wrongly, I assume that Frontera then paid the registration fee. I heard no more, and that attorney moved on some time ago.
Looed - You do so much, and I hate to pass this on, but as you appear to have a contact with the company, perhaps you could point out ZiggyZag's find to them? I don't whether the registration is actually necessary for the company to remain in existence, but for all I know, it may do!
Thanks for everything you do.
Ziggyzag - A great find. Well done.
Oh dear. Must have touched a nerve. You need to learn how to take constructive criticism, Vince, to stay civilized and not lower the tone of the BB. I've reported your meaninglessly vituperative post, of course.
The one factual point you alluded to, by the way, was incorrect. It happens that I've written more posts than you have!
Oh, all right then. I'm fed up too. Of course, we are all fed up - nothing useful is happening. But the constant, repetitive, boring moaning by the same people day after day after day? It gets on my nerves. Maybe it would make me feel better if I repeated my moaning day after day after day as well.
But then again, that wouldn't achieve anything either, so maybe I won't. After all, it would get very boring, wouldn't it!
Real statisticians have looked into this matter (covid vaccinations), and have reported that countries/districts with poor vaccination rates have a much higher death rate among vulnerable sections of society than those countries/districts with high vaccination rates. Trying to prevent vaccinations is obviously dangerous.
I, too, have reported Orangutan73's mindless post.
Just purely for information -
The BBC have stated, from 'Morocco's interior ministry', that the earthquake 'killed people in the provinces and municipalities of al-Haouz, Marrakesh, Ouarzazate, Azilal, Chichoua and Taroudant'. From searching the map, those mentioned areas that I could find are in the general region around Marrakesh and Agadir, as are all the direct reports that I have seen of the disaster. This is a sizable area, but only a limited part of a large country.
No doubt the tragedy also effected premises further away. Provided, however, that Quadrise's business interests are not in the above area, then I suppose there is a strong chance that we may not be directly affected by the tragedy. Could disaster have avoided us for once?
A nice find, keysersoze - Ms. Dunnigan, the designated US ambassador to Georgia, is clearly very, very pro-Ukrainian and very, very anti-Russian. That article (even though it is dated 08/05/22) implies that she will not quietly put up with any future pro-Russian activity from the Georgian government or their paymaster, Ivanishvili. Whether this will effect the GG's stance towards FRR and other US firms remains to be seen. I think it bodes well.
