Correct SGbaby. There has been no direct link voiced. From an unbiased source that is.

As individuals, we can choose which information to use & which to ignore to help us in our investment decision.

Obviously my positive stance is well documented & remains positive. Further reinforced by the messages coming from the future government.

Although i have always thought the Teesta thinking has been a bit of a stretch, even by BB standards.😂

That being said, both projects would compliment each other 👍

Morning Searcher, looks like we both shat the bed this morning 😂

Another item we can tie into the manifesto is renewable energy. The BNP’s plan to provide 20% of energy from renewables.

We can easily forget that part of GCM’s plan is also to provide 2500MW from solar energy 👍

So, i had chance to read through the manifesto this evening. (Rock n Roll lifestyle me) No mention of coal as i already knew would be the case. Which matters not.

This has already been clarified as happening by Tarique at the recent election rallies.

However.

Projects like ours fall under the plan of turning Bangladesh into a trillion dollar economy by 2034.

The other point i found relevant is the emphasis on agriculture & turning the north into a major agricultural hub.

Part of GCM’s feasibility study involves increasing agricultural output

From GCM website

AGRICULTURE

As a result of mine development, agricultural output over the life of the Project will actually increase, enhancing the food security for the local community.

Over the life of the Project the mine footprint will occupy 5,192 hectares. However, at any one time only a third of this area will be actively mined and the rest will still be under cultivation (or some other meaningful land use) either in advance of mining or following rehabilitation of the land after mining.

The farming community in Phulbari area currently faces a number of challenges including a lack of irrigation water, shortages of fertiliser and poor quality inputs. Drawing on lessons learned through the agricultural programmes developed during the Feasibility Study, and working with local partners, GCM has developed an Agriculture Improvement Plan. This will deliver an additional crop per year and higher yields per crop. Rice production alone will more than double as a result. Specific measures include provision of water for year round irrigation, training and improved farming practices, moves to higher yield and higher crop values and improved inputs including the provision of bio-fertiliser to reduce the dependence on pesticides and other chemicals.

Joking aside, good topping up today bud, could be a scramble for stock from Monday morning

SIPP rebate?

With all these positive waves we cant fail Newbyoldy 🙏

Correction:

BNP Chairman Tarique Rahman

In the lead-up to the 12 February 2026 general election, the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has indicated a significant shift toward supporting domestic coal extraction, including potential development at Phulbari.

Current BNP Stance on Phulbari (2026)

Coal-Based Industrial Pledge:

During a campaign rally in Rangpur on 30 January 2026, BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman explicitly pledged to establish coal-based industries in northern Bangladesh if elected.

Support for Open-Pit Mining:

Senior BNP leaders have recently expressed support for open-pit coal mining, arguing that domestic coal must be part of the future energy mix to ensure energy security and reduce dependence on expensive imports.

Economic Strategy:

The BNP's 2026 manifesto, themed "Bangladesh First," targets a $1 trillion economy by 2034. Party insiders suggest that domestic coal extraction is viewed as an "economic imperative" to fuel industrial growth and resolve the ongoing power crisis.

To all my co-longtermers from the early days. you know who you are. I think we’re finally about to reap our rewards lads 👏👏

Agree Searcher. The Dinajpur rally on Saturday he will definitely talk about coal mining again.

Best not be out this weekend 😂

Nonsense. This will continue to rise into the elections & take off when the BNP win. Regardless of what happens tomorrow. Its only BB chat that’s hyped up the manifesto & got some thinking that earth shattering, groundbreaking news will be in it.

The Interim Government has pushed the domestic coal agenda since March. Tarique, the soon to be head honcho has promoted domestic coal use at recent election rallies, in the locations where that coal is.

Man Kini predicting 50p+ before next Thursday & Zak Mir sold out by 14p

This time next week we’ll be £1+ 👊

Its gone from 6p to 10p in a week.

I think its on its way 😂

As per my post s few days ago. Its now playing out the same as in 2008. A few trading days out we went from 10p to over £1.

Without any of the same certainty either.

Friday PM searcher, do the mock the bones 😂😉

Kick me in the technicals & call me Mr McCharty.

But the chart is looking goooooooood 😁

All primed for a Friday afternoon lift off

“Mahmud said a similar policy framework had been prepared during the BNP-led government between 2001 and 2006”

We know what scuppered it that time. So they basically plan to carry on where they left it 19 years ago

Its a done deal 👊

Recent developments suggest the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is shifting towards supporting the extraction of domestic coal, potentially including the Phulbari site, to address the country's energy crisis

Current BNP Stance

Tarique Rahman's Support: In February 2026, BNP's acting chairman Tarique Rahman stated that the party intends to mine domestic coal to drive national development. While his comments specifically mentioned coal in Pirganj, analysts and observers note that Phulbari is the only mine currently "ready to go," being significantly closer to production than other deposits.

Energy Policy:

The BNP's "Vision 2030" plan has long advocated for "effective measures" to expedite the exploration of onshore and offshore mineral resources.
