YouKnowItsRight, you may be right, but I will find the interview later where Anu stated that he believes that mining the countries coal will now have to be done although as I have said he did state that although they have little choice now but to mine their own coal, it will still be a disastrous to do so for the country, but with his stance and opinions, he would say that…
Also, as I have said recently, it was reported that he and some of his anti mob visited the area of Phulbari and were chased away by the villagers…..
I am sure that probably had something to do with the fact that they will be paid as reported in the same interview where Anu said that the country would now have to mine their own coal, the villagers would be paid five times the value of their lands value in compensation …
Great find Blumagnet, I have to be honest, and I am sure that others that have been invested in GCM for the all the years that I have and post on this board, of which there are many, will also agree, I have NEVER have I seen soooo many You Tube links, press articles or heard Hasrul Hamid (The Energy Minister) mention Phulbari, and open pit mining, so openly, so much and so positively!!!
Over to you PM Hasina 😉
Yes, you are correct Blumagnet, this You Tube link does discuss Phulbari, open pit mining and GCM, underneath the video is written the following, but obviously you only have to listen to the video and you can tell that it discuses a lot more……
Huge reserves of coal in 5 mines! Bangladesh will extract coal from 5 mines
Bangladesh is preparing to mine its own coal to reduce energy crisis and import dependency in the future while there is also a plan to mine coal in an open method. So far five coal mines have been discovered in the northern part of Bangladesh. These mines have reserves of 7,823 million tons of coal. which is sublimation
If you can do it, the country will be self-sufficient. If you can export dice, Bangladesh will become a rich country overnight. How is coal mined in the open pit? When will the country's five coal mines start to lift? I will tell you that in today's video, let's start...

The second You Tube link again discusses Phulbari, and underneath states the following
New plan to extract coal from mines in the country If this coal is raised, the crisis will be removed coal mining in Bangladesh

Coal accounts for 26.5 percent of the world's total fuel consumption. And 41.5 percent of the total electricity produced in the world comes from coal. Australia, India, China and the United States have the highest coal consumption in the world. But a major cause of climate change is the use of coal. The world's "dirty fuel"
Big countries were moving away from coal. But due to the increase in global energy prices in recent times, various countries are giving priority to coal again. Due to the high price of energy in the world market, Bangladesh also wants to look at the stored coal. This time, the energy department has adopted a new plan to meet the needs of the energy sector with domestic coal. A new plan has been adopted to lift the country's coal. What is that plan?
Is there? or how the coal will be hoisted. With the answers to these questions, I have prepared this episode with the beginning of coal mining in the country

YouKnowItsRight, the positive is that in a recent link, Anu Muhammad, did state, that the government had made disastrous decisions in how to solve the countries energy problems in the past, and that they were now going to have to make another one and allow mining.... So i don't believe that he will be as against it as he has been in the past... plus with all that's been discussed in the press recently about Phulbari and open pit mining, if he was going to appose it, he would of already done so by now... imo
It won’t soon be a case of the government sitting down and making the decision about mining Phulbari and all their other mining areas or not, it will be the people on the streets demanding that they do!!
