RE:There's still time! If De Beers is smart, they'll move on MPVD while Washington is preoccupied sorting out DDC. This suggests that De Beers should move on MPVD within the next month or two. I can't see Washington (DDC) moving on MPVD without moving on De Beers half of GK too, and this could take some time. Why would Washington want to be in a 50:50 partnership owning MPVD alongside De Beers? No, I don't think we'll see any move by Washington for awhile, but I wouldn't discount them seeking to own everything in the corridor once the dust settles.
