RE: You can make a difference!Thanks for the info. I just sent an e-mail to our PM, who, if I recall correctly, did a tour of South America a while back. I thought that he had developed a bit of rapport with some of the leaders there.
The approach Ecuador is taking seems to be self-defeating. I don't blame them for looking after their interests, or for wanting the best possible deal for their country; however, putting up impossible barriers to investment by companies with expertise will most likely be detrimental to the prosperity of their country.
