RD, unless I am wrong, they never said anything about cash dividends or their ability to pay them to us in the near future, am I correct?

In some ways at least with cash dividends the tax liability can be regulated and not as onerous as paying (I think he said) $10m all at one time.

Frankly, I would prefer them not having to pay 35% tax, since that money could be coming into our pockets, instead. But not sure if there's a way around this.

No tax on dividend in HK. I prefer owning a dividend stock in Hong Kong any day. All dividend from SIAF have to be repatriated first, if I understood Dan correctly!

I for one would prefer to get as many shares as possible in Tri-way so I hope that SIAF buy back as many shares as possible. Paying a meaningless tax, due to repatriation, just to get a cash dividend! No thanks.

The Tri-way dividend is an excellent idea.
