Pender, it does seem that RF may have believed that at the time. Remember they had just been called back to the gov't for a meeting in June then August was when Minamb accepted our proposal.

I might add and I think I posted this before that back on April 21, 2008 Hazout stepped down as CEO and I can't find any reasons given. The BOD said they were doing a comprehensive search for a new CEO at the time. RF was not CEO of KRY at the time so you have to wonder if he was targeted at that time for CEO of Silver Dragon. KRY's denial then happened and may have thrown a wrench in that. In June Hazout rejoined as CEO and the next day Thompson was gone from KRY and RF had to step in a CEO. Hazout and Thompson's dates in June are just one day apart from each other, coincidence? We may never know.
