The Kimberley Process outlived its purpose.
It can no longer evolve, it cannot adjust to current problems and the old ones are

with much simpler tools. Therefore, let us give KP the honorable and dignified euthanasia
it deserves, cherish its important memory in our hearts and bury it.

Word of mouth can be the best thing since sliced bread if you own a small business
