Dear Editor,
THE Opposition is at it again, this time attacking Fulcrum LNG and its CEO, Jesus Bronchalo. The main gripe of the Opposition is that the government was aware of “the company’s link to U.S oil giant, ExxonMobil…”
Kaieteur News took it upon itself to research Mr. Bronchalo and Fulcrum. What did they discover? Well, they discovered that the Bronchalo has 19 years of direct experience in oil and gas. Rather than applaud the unquestionable experience of the Fulcrum’s CEO, ‘Kaieteur’ has chosen to represent it in a negative light. This is the same Kaieteur News that regularly whines about inexperienced people and firms getting contracts.
What is worse is that Kaieteur News has given Nigel Hughes a ‘Get-Out-of-Jail Free’ card, even though his law firm, Hughes, Fields, and Stoby likely provided advice to ExxonMobil at times when the Government of Guyana was in direct negotiations to maximise outcomes for our people.
Fulcrum LNG and Mr. Bronchalo will be of great value to Guyana. In the meantime, Mr. Hughes and the AFC must tell the people how it is that they can represent the interests of the oil major, while at the same time accuse the PPP of working with Exxon to develop our hydrocarbon resources.
Sincerely,
Alvin Hamilton
