Nice snippet from Luke's interviews
"LD: Since you are doing all of this work on mining, especially with Ivanhoe, there was the new windfall tax profit bill passed last Friday and-
SG: Yes this windfall tax…I would say to you….ok. The windfall tax law is a good law, BUT, that windfall tax percentage, that figure, 68% is wrong! It is too much! Normally, mining industries are taking around 37%. For example, 37%, more than 20% is going directly to the state budget and the short term and long term ideas are very important. Myself, I’m not really sure, maybe 40-50%, I think that is ideal. But I don’t want to tell you any more figures. We need to ask word wide respected experts and specialists. They will tell us maybe 30%, 55%, or 70%. But politicians shouldn’t decide these figures; they don’t know and they can’t do anything. They should ask the head of some specialists and negotiators and hold public discussions."
