Due to the economic crisis in Indonesia and the mining industry, as at 12 February 1998, I was recalled from Jakarta, Indonesia to the Perth Office in Australia. My contract with EMC ended February 1999 which was not renewed due to the continued economic situation of the mining and exploration industry. Subsequently EMC scaled down  and closed its operation.
