Addition of a company response to deforestation allegation?[edit]

Dear Wikipedia editors

I am the head of public relations for Olam International. We ask if we can add the following text and sources to the controversies section regarding allegations of deforestation so that readers can easily find our response as part of their information gathering.

The text would be inserted after this section “The two NGOs also documented Olam’s cutting down an area the size of Washington DC in what had been an intact forest landscape in Northern Gabon, for rubber in Gabon.[28]”

Suggested new text: Olam issued its response ^[1] which was reported by publications such as the Singapore Business Times ^[2]:""...Olam said that Gabon has about 33 per cent of its people living at or below the poverty, and its longstanding reliance on oil-and-gas revenues is not viable over time. "The government therefore has a justifiable imperative to grow the agricultural economy beyond just subsistence farming," said Olam, noting that 90 per cent of its land area is forested.....""
