Can't see an all out bid either. The DB factor looks too complicated. Agree with Witten, this is all a ruse to bolster AFD sp up for a cash raising exercise. Accounts look like AFD very low on cash and they have west Africa, corporate costs and some own cost Botswana projects to fund. Cash they will need and to the market they have to go. Maybe FDI can provide cash for more shares??
Wholehearted agree production be the focus for 2006. FDI needs production. That would be grand.
