Mr. Habib appreciated Mr. Soota’s remarks, adding: ‘I wish the German side could understand us as muchas we understand each other. They do not care about what we think! All that matters to them is dollars, dollar sand more dollars. Our esteemed minister Mr. Sherrif gave us his word and promised us that, Insha’Allah, the government would sign the purchase contract next month, but the German lawyers told us that they would only like to see contracts in black and white and said that our word was not enough. Do they want to imply that, I, Sheikh Habib, am a liar? If they don’t trust us, then I have to be honest and admit that we do not even trust them since business should be for mutual benefit and not dictated. I am sorry, but please do not expect me to respect somebody who thinks that we are dishonest and unprofessional in our approach.Mr. Kirchdorfer said that our small family concern needs to gear up and act more professionally to manage the new project! But we know how to run our business – we don’t need the Germans for that!’
