If cost was the issue ( which it usually is, then I can tell you that its possible to buy a kilo ( sukari pima ) at 50 bob, 2 KG's at 100 bob etc at the local kiosk. “You can get in way more trouble with a good idea than a bad idea, because you forget that the good idea has limits.” - Ben Graham

Massive demo against board and top management slated for Thursday. This won't end well.Why can't they resign instead of waiting to be shamed out of office? Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
