I have studied Oil and gas extraction, Kawawa should be informed that if he has not done any research , blindly being negative is being a bit naive , please it’s important to study a little bit and than make comments , be it positive or negative.

From a look of the things it seems Malawi is trying to make a best deal in Petroleum industry. Big up for that, Government. Malawi will surely benefit from this if you are going to make the best deal in the industry.

Iam glad to hear and see that RAKGas is indeed a serious company really doing something on the ground. This is some positive development and hopefully some sections of my fellow Malawian will stop the ussual negative stories against the oil and gas sector. …lets wait and see whether we have the oil and gas as a country. .
