[DOC] BHP Billiton response to concerns about Bakhuys project, Suriname

While we have not had time to read the report in detail, we are concerned that the case study on our activities in Suriname does not fairly reflect our activities to date or our commitment to work with the local communities in the future... We are fully committed to a formal engagement program with the local communities (this is ongoing) and will take their concerns and aspirations into account in our decision making process. We also recognise and respect the role of the Surinamese government in this decision making process. Our objective is to ensure strong community support for all our operations.
