COMMENTS

 

This is a well-established company that is not a general credit seeker locally.  The subject is meeting its only local commitment timeously.  We have not traced dealings to an extent of US$1 000 000 DA and would prefer to see such dealings well spread and secured.  The lack of financial information should be borne in mind.
