Yes, thats my thinking also, just one more comment that creates fear of investing in Equador and erodes our share price. There is a lot of money at stake here and the manipulation will not end any time soon.

I think that ethical, socialy conscious companies, such as ARU, will have fewer problems operating in countries like Equador. Is there one major that outshines the others in this regard?
