G'day , The Australian Foreign Investment Review Board has approved the sale of a Great Australian company " CSR " a Singapore based company .
This follows the sale of Golden Circle to USA , P&N to Japan
Lets hope the ACCC stops this madness

Then the ACC obviously won't stop an overseas sale.
Maybe the FIRB might, but if the ACC has allowed one company to obtain 75% of the market, they aint going to start caring now.
