Yeah, it's old news, but given how pathetic things are going here and elsewhere, it's worth bearing in mind again. Hopefully the line below is true. The very fact that CKGT received this contract suggests that it is:
"The low-nicotine and non-nicotine cactus cigarette product coincides with the government’s initial step to promote less harmful products to the huge smoking population in China."
Is the government really going to "promote" this for CKGT? That's what it says. That would be huge. I suspect, too, that they'd do a far better job of it than CKGT management.
I haven't tried to contact Hawk (except when they first were rehired--no answer), but find it unsettling that they aren't responding to you. Is Hawk miffed at management and not wanting to spend any more energy towards the company beyond the absolute bear minimum? Or is Hawk itself on the ropes and devoting all its free energy towards clients that pay better than CKGT? In any event, this cold shoulder "let them eat cake" stance Hawk and management have taken towards investors is a huge disadvantage. And now that they've demonstrated this approach for a long time, any good news is going to be for many just an opportunity to sell and move on.
This company has got a huge hole to dig itself out of, and they hardly seem aware of it. Perhaps if cash flow increases dramatically this year they'll choose to spend some of that money on investor relations. But I'm not holding my breath.
