RE:The trouble is ...Fully agree Terrebonne! This is both shocking and disastrous for majority of MPV shareholders (don't know about DD). Over a decade PE took MPV from an irrelevant junior partner powerless in the face of De Beers to a full JV partner with equal vote. He was able to get back the diamond marketing rights from De Beers - first time ever in +100 year history of De Beers - to secure value for MPV shareholders. And he did this singlehandedly, as Purcell notes. What the hell happened to lead to this development. Shareholders have the right to know the truth. The truth will come out and the majority of the shareholder will hold this board accountable. Time to kick the bums out!
