Adani contractor left asking government for finance after insurers fleeThe federal government is asked to step in and provide finance to companies building Adani's Carmichael mine and rail link, after one of Adani's biggest contractors revealed it was unable to insure its work on the project. Why should taxpayers money back another company that pays little or no tax? Political parties' government is an international broker. They sold many of country's resources & public sectors to 'private' as their own. Received their 'benefits' as commissions 💵 & donations 💵. These 'corruptions' are very dangerous than 'HELL' 😳 Does anyone have track of how much our various governments have either contributed or commited to this private, foreign owned project?
