So bang away with the pursuit of a lawsuit. Look at the world financial meltdown. Lots of people were going to suffer, go to jail, lose their jobs, etc. once everything came to light. Still waiting.
I am dealing in business reality. Business in the very dirty resource industry; probably more vile than the banking industry. With all we have seen just in PNG, how can an investor expect that any deal will be above-board with all playing fair? Hard core business deals with the weakest of links eliminated. Truly survival of the fittest in this industry.

I think corruption pretty much sums it up. Was the pay package misaligned or maybe someone should have checked someones moral compass?
