geezer: Perez's mob already kidnapped and held Brazilian barge crew hostage for over a week just a few months ago. Nothing happened. Perez's crew stormed the oil field with guns a few years back. 2 People were killed. Nothing Happened. They have blockaded and halted production half a dozen times since I've owned this comapny. There is no law and order and now the social fund has greatly increased the reson for conflict-. Think of it. This is at least 5% from the bottom line out of sharebolders pockets. i.e the difference between a 11% dividend or a 16% one. AND IT HAS MADE MATTERS WORSE.
