Months ago there was a major announcement by the Minister of Announcement, Phillip Paulwell of an exciting project where Nippon would become involved in extraction rare earth metal from bauxite waste.
As usual in Jamaica we applauded this announcement, suggesting it was ground breaking and Jamaica stood to earn plenty foreign exchange.
Can anyone say what has become of this project. because right now foreign exchange is rare as the earth metal that was said to have been available.
Minister over to you sir.
