Re AmaBhungane query: ZPMC allegedly paid kickbacks to the Guptas

Dear Mr. McKune,

We are the legal department of ZPMC and we have received your below

email from our business department on 25th July, 2017.

As a state-owned and listed company in China, we always operate our

business compliance with relevant laws and regulations. In respect of this

specific case, we confirm we have no any business or other relationship

with Guptas, your president Jacob Zuma, his family or

the now-former CEO and CFO of Transnet. We even do not exactly know
who they are before your email. Therefore some of the facts in your

below email are untrue.

We believe it is not necessary or worthy for you to report anything related

to our company, but if you would like to do so, it is suggested that you

should obtain prior consent of our company and make sure your report is

totally true, complete and accurate.

All our right are expressly reserved.

Best regards,
