Reply to - Xstrata, desperately seeking legitimacy

Posted by mcarthurriver on April 27, 2007

In reply to Douglas (Thankyou).

If anything Xstrata is worse than MIM.

The award was a bad joke, a sign of a company bereft of ethics, using spin to promote themselves rather than genuine engagement.

That the award itself was presented by the Minister for Mines, Chris Natt, shows how far the NT Labor Government has fallen since they came to office in 2001.

In supporting the award, the NT Government has set a very low standard for community engagement.
