AUSTRALIA ADVANCES CHANGE: FROM MINING TO DINING A multitude of people attended a lunch meeting at Sydney’s Randwick Racecourse on Saturday to discuss China’s demand for Australian produce and Australia’s desire to supply it. This event was hosted by the Australian Turf Club (ATC), as part of its inaugural Chinese Racing Festival, a new strategy to attract the lucrative Chinese market for its long term viability. According to the ATC Executive Darren Pierce, Chinese like luxury experiences and fashion. While watching the racetrack, Australia-China Primary Industries Council headed the discussions between the two countries’ government dignitaries and businessmen, they also included Federal Trade Minister, Andrew Robb. Since the mining resource industry in Australia has come to a halt, a kick-start for the Australian economy is needed. Their next best bet is agriculture. According to organizer Edmund So, Australian farmers have the capacity to produce more but aren’t, because they don’t know how to sell overseas. He added that the key concerns from the Chinese perspective were secure supply chains so buyers can depend on a constant flow of produce and secure prices. This will be a great opportunity for the Australian economy. More job opportunities will be available for the masses.

MAN-MADE DIAMONDS: TURNING THE DEAD INTO GEMS “The diamond’s evolution has ended” says the successful company behind the manmade diamonds now trending in the market. In the Forbes interview of the company’s leader, Harry Burl, he detailed how he have come up with the business idea and shared a quick overview of the company. In 2010, while looking for domains to purchase and engage lucrative ventures, he came across to a not yet registered domain – manmadediamonds.com. From there, he researched a lot about it and figured out to keep the domain for himself. After six years, he is running the most successful business in the diamond making industry in the country. As we all know, diamonds are purely carbon based crystals and we can get it naturally from diamond mines mostly in Africa. But did you know that we can now make diamonds in the lab that are as pure as the natural ones? Yes! You will need a carbon seed and blast them with hydrogen and methane gas to grow the crystal. Voila! Diamonds produced will be just like long lost twin of the mined ones! These synthetic diamonds can be grown in the laboratory for about eight to twelve weeks. Some say that these diamonds also cost 30 percent less than that of the natural ones. But what if we say that they get these diamonds from the dead? Would you wear it? Harry Burl says that the company gets its feed from the cremated ashes from the funeral homes. Basically, we can extract carbon from our hairs and dead ashes. In fact, it is more economical and environment friendly especially to anti-mining movements. It is also more ethical than the blood diamonds made out of Photo by forbes child labor and exploitation. Although creating diamonds from our loved ones is a sensitive market, Burl said that they have a special approach that us both intellectually and emotionally appealing when it comes to their customers. They are cautious in the process with the customer’s peace of mind as the uppermost priority. Diamonds should be as pure as their own content, the company says. They are also producing diamonds for wedding and engagement rings. You can also order a conflict free ring with no personal carbon ashes. Designs and orders of these diamonds are available on their website. And I can say that they really protrude adamantine luster. Indeed, diamonds are forever.
