In a recent interview CEOCFO Magazine spoke with Raymond Lai Chairman, President and CEO of Maple Leaf Green World ( TSXV : MGW ; OTCQB:MGWFF). As quoted in the interview: CEOCFO: Mr. Lai, Is Maple Leaf Green World on the growing side of medical marijuana, providing the marijuana for the product developers? What are you doing? Mr. Lai: It is a pleasure to speak with you today. We started off as a greenhouse management company with operations in China for anti-desertification. We were helping the Chinese government to grow small trees so they can replant them in the semi desert area. We were doing that since 2006, but by 2013, the funding for these anti-desertification efforts were reduced by the government of China, and at the same time, the legalization of marijuana was happening in Canada. So we decided to change our focus from China back to Canada. We applied for the MMPR in 2014, which is the old licensing system, right now it is called ACMPR.
