I am reposting this government official news release because the answer for Kry's final destiny is hiding in it .

Either we will be a tool for the new company forming ,just being an operator on LC and nothing to do with exploration

or being taken over lock ,stock and barrel including the equipment

or ,our preferred way,carry-on with the contract maybe with some adjustments but with a new state company looking over our shoulder.

anybody any more ideas?
