<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">I have to say – this reply shocks and confounds me, and I find to be deeply saddening.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Is this how it is going to go? Process is followed – a legitimate appeal is lodged – the appeal (rightfully) goes a particular way because of what is clear evidence on the list of strong opposition
which flies in the face of consensus – and the response is to play an “imperialist” card.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Who exactly are these imperialists – and what is your definition of an imperialist? If you wish to make such blatantly inflammatory statements – I would like to see if you are man enough to stand
by your words and explain EXACTLY what you mean. I point out that the PDP process and all that it is was ratified by this community as a whole – not by some mythical imperialists - that process has now been followed – and because you do not like the outcome
of the process that was defined by the community you choose to attack what is defined by the process that was developed bottom up in Africa?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Can I make a suggestion – perhaps rather than blaming everyone else for your woes and the fact that what you wanted did not happen, maybe you should look to yourself and ask why you could not convince
those of us who disagree with the policy because of its content that it was the right move for the industry. Maybe you should look to yourself and ask if sending messages like this endear you to anyone and if it will ever help your case.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Passing policy is about convincing others that the policy is in the communities best interests – and there are large segments of this community that strongly believe that this policy runs contrary
to the interests of the industry – and I assure you – messages like this do not help the case – rather all they do is serve to prove the point that for some, policy is not about what is good for the industry, it is about some strange political agenda based
on stereotyping entire segments of the population because of insecurities on the part of the people doing the stereotyping.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">If your motivation is the pass policy to stick it to the so called imperialists – that will not get policy passed. If your motivation is to pass policy for the good of the industry – lobby for it
– convince people you have a solid case – if you can’t do that – the policy should not pass – and will not – as is demonstrated in this case.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">C'est du mal jugé. C'est une journée de tristesse pour les internautes africains, les intérêts des impérialistes ont pris le dessus sur les patriotes africains.
<br>
<br>
Chers membres du comité, votre lecture tronquée et partisane des procédures vous dénoue de toute objectivité dans votre jugement. Serait-ce la crainte que les demandeurs de la requête n'aillent saisir les cours et tribunaux de l'Ile Maurice qui ont dirigé votre
verdict? Ou le jaugeage des intérêts financiers mis en jeu? Pour moi votre décision n'est pas différente de toutes celles émanant des cours suprêmes qui valident en dernier ressort en Afrique des élections truquées.<br>
