Look, Bob, I am trying to ignore your constant attempts to post towards me because all you ever want to do is argue about things I am not interested in and/or make ideological pronouncements in my direction. You don't think I knew about that when I made my statement?!? Read what I said again -- the companies AWAY FROM THE CITIES, i.e. in southern Egypt, are operating normally. Facts, they are nasty things alright! SEA DRAGON COMMENTS ON THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN EGYPT ca.finance.yahoo.com On Monday January 31, 2011, 7:00 am EST NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES CALGARY, Jan. 31 /CNW/ - Sea Dragon Energy Inc. ("Sea Dragon") (CDNX:SDX.V) wishes to provide the following commentary on the latest developments in Egypt. Our company is closely monitoring the latest developments in Egypt. Street demonstrations are restricted to major cities and therefore have little or no impact on the company's field operations in Kom Ombo and NW Gemsa. Production from both concessions is continuing uninterrupted with Sea Dragon's W.I. share running steady at 1350-1400bopd. The NW Gemsa and Kom Ombo Concessions are desert located and lie considerable distance from urban areas and therefore all company assets and facilities are secure and unaffected by recent disturbances. In Kom Ombo because of the remoteness of the area, the company is experiencing some shortages in supplies and therefore the drilling and service rigs have temporarily been placed on stand-by until regular transportation of goods and services resumes. We are in constant communication with our personnel in Cairo and they are all safe and are continuing to carry on their daily duties. The management of Sea Dragon is very much aware of how concerned our shareholders must be during this period of unrest in Egypt and therefore we will be holding an open line press conference on Thursday February 3rd at 8:30am. Details will be posted on the company Web site later today. The company's chairman and CEO Mr. Said Arrata and President and COO Mr. Tony Anton will be on hand to answer any questions our shareholders may have.

Bruce Aitken, president and chief executive officer of Methanex, commented: "Our first priority is the safety and security of all our employees. As a result of the civil unrest in Egypt, the decision has been taken to minimize operating activities there. This includes temporary closure of our Cairo office and limiting the number of employees at our Damietta plant site. We have also taken the decision to evacuate international staff and their families. Commissioning activities on the plant, which is currently shut down, have been curtailed. The Damietta site is currently being staffed at minimal levels, commensurate with essential activities, and for the security and integrity of the facility. Over the next few days, we will be developing plans to reinitiate the commissioning and start-up of the plant as and when conditions allow."
