Another nuisance was the distribution of money. The tribal leaders were the beneficiaries of the lease payments and had the job of distributing it. I'm fairly certain a large chunk went in their back pockets as numerous villagers complained of getting no money or only part of it. I think they had put the blame on 'the westerners' saying we hand't paid the full amount.
Ahh, the oldest third world trick in the book.
