I am new to this discussion but I believe Lance might have a point here, we should try to move forward on a more solid basis, not that much on a conceptual or argumentative basis since it seems it did not make the expectation back then: Lance, seems you have a much stronger background on this issue than me, do you have any suggestions we could all analyze?<br>

It can not be enough simply to say that "the realization of this action translates into ignorance of ancestral rights, cultural and social traditions of the countries of the Amazon region." It is provided. To some extent, this was the same difficulty when the government expressed its concerns.There are currently discussions between the governments of the Amazon basin and Amazon Inc. to ensure that most, if not all, of these rights are conserved in some way. Also, my dear friend Juan, in order to obtain possible support for your cause, it may be useful to remember that Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru are not the only members of the Amazon Basin. Other members have also actively participated in discussions / negotiations. Sincerely, Lance Hinds Free of virus.<br>
