    "content": "get into expensive exercises of denying what is right or coming up with findings that we think are right and yet they are wrong. At the stage where we have reached with this arrangement, it is important that we constantly check those benefits that we are likely to derive as a country and as individuals involved as researchers and scientists. As we do this, one gets scared about these things that have to do with the USA at the moment. There are many other things that are emerging in terms of how we are viewed by the American Executive. So, when we get into this type of arrangement, one would want to look at it very keenly. Are they things that are likely to stand the times of how that Government is going to be relating with us? We could be getting into arrangements – even though they are treaties - that are not going to be regarded easily by the incumbent administration. There are already scary indications pointing to the fact that we might not relate well with the USA Government following what happened during the last elections. It is also very funny or almost sad that an American investor, who has been in this country for over 14 years, instead of engaging in partnering with the people in a proper manner as per the agreement that he has signed with the locals and local institutions, is now coming up with insinuations. I will present the matter to the House tomorrow because it is related to a House Petition. He has gone ahead to write all manner of things that at the end of the day bring the House to disrepute. I will bring that tomorrow for the House to look at keenly. However, we need to be very clear in terms of the benefits that we are going to derive out of these things, so that we do not end up being an inferior partner. I beg to support."
