- I had sent an email to Louisa Wong at Sino Forest's IR regarding today's G&M article. Here's what she replied:


Thank you for your email.

1. The reporter has not studied the Master Agt before they called our agent for trees for a phone-interview.
2. Reporter has insufficient understanding on tree agency arrangement, buying tree only and buying trees with land.
3. As a result, asked misleading/unclear questions leading unclear answers thus misinterpretation.
4. Told reporter of the misunderstanding and that a written clarification from our supplier will come in 12 hrs. Globe refused to wait and not even mentioning the arrangement for clarification in the article, which is not very professional as he is trying to create a "sensational" read and following.
5. Not sure why Globe & Mail allowed a reporter to do such. Seems to report with pre-conceived theme. Not open and objective.
6. Our numbers are correct.



Best regards,

Louisa
