Nothing has changed in our relationship with East West. We have no relationship with East West. We've been withholding our labour for almost seven years now.
Well, first of all, we now have everybody with the exception of India, Pakistan, and Israel, and I don't think these three countries are going to join by simply providing them an incentive, in terms of technology.
