Business Report: Annual Taliban Trading figures...
:
Despite some modest attention from the worlds armed forces, the Taliban have increased their involvement in poppy production to a considerable level. Their profit margins are currently solid and show the potential for considerable growth in the years ahead. This year the annual profit rose to £100million which is a strong return on initial investment and is to be congratulated. Outlook is good, prospects are strong, as the wider marketplace is buoyant with solid demand right across the board.
Chief Executive Mr B Ladin, a wealthy man in his own right, says in the annual statement that they now hold 90% of the worlds opium trade in their portfolio.
"Onwards and upwards from here"... says Mr Ladin
"we may have a little minor military difficulty
but as you can see its not hitting our trading figures,
the future is bright" .
