Despite Boardroom drama sometime ago that saw the CEO and some portion of management walk out.. returns, operating performance and growth over last 3 years have been rather nice..compared to ARM and Bamburi..also despite that Yen crap loan of theirs.. d'oh!

Planning to go regional ...what prospects do you guys see here? ... Think they can afford it? Think

Can they afford not to go regional? What happened to their Sudan push?

I ask in order to gauge their capacity to handle start up jitters that seem to follow companies going regional... atleast for a while..before they pick up again..
and again..capital outlay required..

They need to have sustained growth in the country before the venture regionally. Moreover, there has to be less government control in order for them to make strategic decisions without much reference to bureaucratic systems.
