Arthur was very much in Exxon/OSH camp and probably still is. He was one that led move against the IOC/Chinese HOA back in spring of 2009. He and others felt that it was giving away the store and also said they could only deal with one project approval at a time and Exxon had to be first. In the end they were approved within days of each other, but Arthur pushed XOM. Was also rumored to have a bit of XOM and OSH stock. Arthur recently has postured to align with his father, but that probably was as much to try and get himself a cabinet post and/or get to the PM chair until elections. We will now see if Sir Michael is "able".
