    Its time to decide what you want to do with your shares in Vale.

Foreign companies from (mostly) China will contract as the 'foreign partner'.
    There will be increased emphasis on ore->metals industries *within* Brasil - fine metals of a quality urgently required world-wide. These industries are likely to have the same ownership characteristics.

    I am developing a distinct impression that Brasil really does want to join the group of Developed States - all the early signs are pointing in this direction.
