BRISBANE ACTION - URGENT: LNG AGM - A MUST ATTEND



When:    Thursday 24th November, 2011
Time:      3.00pm (Bne Time)
Where:   Sofitel Brisbane Central - 24 Turbot Street, Brisbane

It has come to our attention that the company LNG has now increased their share in Metgasco to over 10%. This company is majority owned by a subsidiary of the CNPC (China National Petroleum Corporation)- the largest oil and gas producer in China and a state owned company.

LNG has plans to build (yet another) LNG facility in Gladstone Harbour, on the coast at Fisherman's Landing. In their latest quarterly report LNG d...etails how they hope to secure 1.5 million tonnes per annum of gas from the Northern Rivers to supply their export facility.

Conveniently, LNG are having their AGM in Brisbane and we plan to show up and let them know in no uncertain terms that the gas supply from our region is by no means a sure bet. Please put it out to your networks that their will be a protest outside the AGM as follows:

3pm on Thursday 24th November (4pm NSW time)
Meet and greet shareholders 2.30pm
at Sofitel Brisbane Central
249 Turbot Street,
Brisbane, Queensland


We want to get as many people there as possible to let LNG shareholders and board know that:

 1.The Northern Rivers is not for sale
2. We will not let a gas pipeline go through our World Heritage Areas (or anywhere else for that matter)
3. The destruction of Gladstone Harbour and the Great Barrier reef must be stopped.
Hope to see you and lots of people from your groups there on the 24th,

Boudicca Cerese
for GAG Kyogle

    These inappropriate developments won't just affect the North Coast of NSW. It is not just in 'their' backyard. The infrastructure associated with this will affect everyone from the North Coast to Beaudesert to Ipswich to Gladstone. Show the government you care about what is happening in this country. Don't let them ruin our environment, our land, our acquifers and our future. Let them know that the 99% do not want to see this country destroyed for the benefit of the 1%. Add your voice and come to the rally on Thursday 24/11/2011.
