Martin Rapaport Proposal
During a trade mission to Sierra Leone that involved a group of 29 international diamantaires and jewelers, Martin Rapaport, Chairman of the Rapaport Group, presented a proposal to the government of Sierra Leone that, in his company's view, would optimize the country's diamond industry. The proposal includes a systematic and sustainable business model that will optimize the benefit of Sierra Leone’s alluvial diamonds for the diggers, their communities, and the government. The plan involves giving artisanal diggers the opportunity to sell the diamonds they find through a legitimate government channel. I hope they succeed.
