+1 to this suggestion as one term limit would give other capable members of

+1 as we need to make sure we avoid the capture of the organisation by an

The non regional representation needs to be revisited if some of this
occurances of 2 aspiring candidates from same country keep happening.

This year 2 nominated candidates from the same country were elected to the
board  as directors and i believe this has happened before and ought to be
avoided if we are to really champion spirit of diversity.

SPIRIT OF DIVERSITY...

This continent is not one country or 3 countries or one company.
