<div>Thanks for the clarification/correction and it is indeed welcome. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We note though the damaging publicity over the last one week on this issue. I personally retract the combative statements because of the misreporting. It would however auger well going forward for the CCK to quickly set the record straight when such issues
arise.</div>
