Just FYI, spider silk is 100% 'silk'.
Crazy that isn't it??!!
I think you'll find that it is undoubtedly 100% silk
Hello Col, all it seems to do is give you access to the 'Investor Kit' from what I can see the Investor Kit is just a compilation of links to our SEC filings.......
I'm glad too.
Epic post JS, the first of your's I have read but I'll be looking forward to the next one.
To be honest it read like I had almost written it myself, you summed up my own thoughts perfectly. Not blowing smoke up your a55, its the honest truth.
Find me a company with a page on Facebook that willingly allows negative comments to be posted on their page and leaves them sitting there. Go on I dare you Abom
In full agreement Ray, not a big deal and it happens all the time. Not sure if Peach is aware that this document is almost 65,000 words long
At this point in time it is the last amendment to be filed.
Yes he says THEY don't have production costs to reveal which speaks volumes about them being a significant way behind KBLB
Sounds like pretty heavy stuff to me. Certainly sounds like spider silk armour will be a whole lot lighter than carrying a shotload of liquid on one's person!
Of course I agree Abom, I'd bet anything that this year will be the start of our journey.....
Jesus!! Another S-1a!!??
Surely such a post should be backed with an argument rather than simply being an apparently baseless accusation!?
Kudos to you Abom, you really are quite skilled at copy & pasting boiler plate!
You must have a good memory ha ha!
Hello Midnight, not quite true. It appears it's just U.S. stocks, streaming Canada & UK stocks fine.....
Cheers, 2 posts gone just like that poof!!!
Anybody else's ihub app not streaming UK stocks? TIA
Yeah it's true that the 'teacher' providing what you consider as schooling has been correct for some things for a few years now especially regarding the low share price and lack of publicised success.
However his 'teacher's pets' absolutely do not believe he will be proven right in time or they would not be hanging round this classroom day in day out.
It's interesting that it is about spider silk yet the pic on the article is a silkworm cocoon. There's only one company I know that has silkworms excreting spider silk......
Depends whether it was a Tall or a Venti.
Thanks for the DD mojo, shame on you!!
"We will prob be here posting the same facts and nonsense years down the road."
Anybody who truly believes that needs their head testing for sticking around. Except I don't believe that anybody here believes that, I believe all are shrewd enough to get out if this was truly their belief.
Hey Jetow,
Sorry for the delay, only get 2 posts a day I’m afraid, had to wait for midnight over your side to pass……
Unfortunately no new news I’m afraid but as is to be expected due to the Tet (CNY) holiday.
What I will say is that I did receive some information a short time back that I chose not to share but on reflection I see no real harm in letting you know now (in fact I see it as a positive as it is a tangible reason for delays rather than the unknown)……
Bear in mind that my source was not directly in contact with Kim or KBLB. I’d rather not say more as I wouldn’t want to get anybody in trouble.
I was told that part of the hold-up is due to both export & import licenses. There is some red-tape needing to be cut through before the export license from USA will be granted. This is understandable when you consider that it is a GMO and the world is scare-crazy about GMOs (for good reason in most cases but not in the case of our lazy, obese, immobile Monster Silkworms). Along with this, the import license into Vietnam is yet to be approved but the impression that my source has been given is that as soon as the USA export license is approved, the Vietnam import license will follow suit with no issue.
Not much information but it is all I have. I don’t want to go as far as to say 'take it with a pinch of salt' but I do not know the source personally (although we have spoken) so cannot vouch for his credibility. All I can say is that I was put in contact with him through a mutual friend and he has nothing whatsoever to gain by being dishonest.
I will post any news I do have provided I do not see it as jeopardising anything Kim is doing.
Good weekend to all!

Hi Jetow,
Reading the original article from Truth, it implies that a lot of it is being done by the Market Makers, who obviously are able to do whatever they want.
Cheers,
DOD
Hello there,
I'm afraid not. I touched base with my contact before the CNY holidays and no change. NOTHING happens in Vietnam for around 3-4 weeks around that holiday so I wouldn't expect anything immediately.
Regards
DOD
Nice to get some at 0.0284 :)
Great story Jetow, well done to you!
Reading between the lines I think our problem at present lies in the decree 187/2013 as quoted by spillmonkey:
http://www.itpc.gov.vn/investors/how_to_invest/law/Decree_No.187_2013/mldocument_view/?set_language=en
Look around 3/4 of the way down under section:
"III. LIST OF GOODS FOR WHICH IMPORT AND EXPORT IS SUBJECT TO ISSUANCE OF A PERMIT AND IN THE CATEGORY OF LINE MANAGEMENT OF THE MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT
Section B
4. Animal breeds outside the List of goods permitted production and business in Vietnam; various types of insects which are not yet found in Vietnam; sperms and embryos of animal breeds imported for the first time in Vietnam.
Import permit, or license of testing, specifying conditions and procedures for licensing."
It's getting late here & no time to have a good dig but it appears (reading the article from spillmonkey) that the issue is the lack of a "List of Goods" being produced by the industry. Nobody knows how to classify the worms so it's a little crease that needs ironing out. Knowing Vietnam, decrees are re-drafted all the time, maybe a new decree not even needed and this list is enough.
Night/day all!
"Mentioned your name the other day in a conversation with Ben....
You're going to live long. smile "???!!
I'm intrigued by this comment!?
Out of respect for Kim & the company, I'm not going to say any more than I said yesterday except to confirm that said meeting took place. Hoping there is some sort of PR on the topic in the near future. In hindsight I wish I hadn't 'blabbed' yesterday but I was quite excited. Sorry for being vague!!
Not as per the information I have received, I expect the skepticism from some and nothing I will say will change that but for the believers, I assure you that is what I have been told.
Truth, I'm back in an attempt to quench your thirst to shed more light on the situation here in good ol' Nam.
It does actually sound like the govt possibly do not want this to slip through their fingers as their is a rumour that some kind of rule/laws may be changed to accommodate.
Sorry so vague but that is as vague as what I have been told. If you are after specifics then how's about a meeting between KBLB & the officials in Lam Dong..............today ;)
Contrary to what some would have you believe, EVERYBODY here will still be here when the dust settles (even mojo!)
To be honest I took the newspaper reports as gospel and assumed it was done with. Unfortunately my 'mole' who has a contact at Lam Dong People's Committee is off on maternity leave and not due back till late March. I know she's having a hard time with the new baby but when things ease off I'll ask her to make contact again..........
Bob, Carp (and all), I keep seeing comments about Vietnam. I was under the impression that the Vietnam deal was dead in the water due to the legal framework around GMO's being in its infancy.
Have I missed something?
GLTY
Both think & sincerely hope that you are correct my friend!!
Ultra Electronics (AMI) appears to be a subsidiary of Ultra Electronics.....
Hey Candia, that was my thoughts exactly for several years. I was so convinced that news was about to come out that I was scared to be out of the game at any point. I've now learnt that chances are that news isn't imminent and the opportunity to flip presents itself. I've only done it a few times but gained around 150k shares in the process. That in itself makes me more willing to gamble, I didn't pay for those 150k shares so have no issues with flipping em.
Es1 has been doing it for years, God only knows how many he has accumulated in this manner, he's the expert. I'm just a novice trying my luck!!
On an aside I had been saving up to pay my mortgage off and so had some spare cash in the bank that I don't need for a few months at least. I transferred part of it over to my share account so I could load up some more for a hopeful short term gain. I see the risk as being pretty low at these prices and even if we only get back up to 0.05 I can get my money back out while selling around 150k less shares than I bought (trying to buy, not spent all yet but go some 0.034 & 0.035 yesterday). Let's hope I'm right or I won't be paying the mortgage off till the summer!! ??
Just a flip, while things are jumping about at present. It was only a small chunk of my stash, the rest of it is locked tight.
I've never taken a penny out, only flipped to increase my share count.
I've also just sent some extra funds over to buy some more while they're cheap. In my eyes as soon as we hear anything from Kim, my investment will have been worth it!
Just checked my account and that single share sale at EOD was me :)
My sell was for 100,000! 0.0365 proceeds, $6.95 commission (taken for the team) ha ha
Things lag, often depends how well somebody gets their pockets lined.
Personally, I'm not too fussed that the Vietnam deal is off as I had plenty of reservations. Don't get me wrong, it is more than possible for business to succeed here but not normally without innumerable complications, high risk of technology theft etc etc......
