Excuse me. ¿"Won't be there for them"? I would have said anyone. Was there a particular reason you excluded the rest of the world?

No particular reason. I was referring to Asia specifically. So, it won't be there for anybody. Are you happy now?

Yes. Feel better now. Thanks.

I read (between the lines) and thought you might have meant, "them" won't be able to afford it or might somehow be otherwise excluded from participating in the mad dash (bidding war, or hot war, etc.) for the remaining reserves.
