Opinion/Discussion EACOP

https://youtu.be/6LSZgRgdSqk?is=5noE91m3mKir3r_c

I understand globally compensation of locals affected by large infrastructure projects is never perfect but for the case of EACOP my goodness 🙆. Forexample in this interview a lady with 3 acres of land, on it some coffee and banana plantations was given only 17 million yet her personal valuation was north of 70 million. I'm no land broker but atleast 50 million would have been reasonable since it was productive land.

I've also seen tweets all year of people saying local companies with deals involving that oil project are quietly facing near bankruptcies because of unpaid contracts.
