It's me for what I believe

I have studied the world economics and global business trade and how these factors influence the decision making and political landscapes around the world. A famous economist from Japan Mr. Kenichi Ohmae, stated that the national states are dead. He said that as more and more multinational corporations are mushrooming around the world, the national boundries will not matter anymore to most of the people, the consumers as well as the producers.

Looking at the world we live in at the moment, I stand in favour of this very bold statement. But, I also think that instead of boundry-less world, we may be heading to a world which is dominated by pro-cpaitalistic policies of the USA. And as the Chineese economy starts to influence the global political enviornment we will be heading towards a polarised world. And countries like India, China, Germany which always try to seek their good and don’t interfare in global decision making will find it increasingly difficult to maintain an identity for themselves. We have seen an experiment being conducted in the European continent with its share of success and a fair amount of troubles. But, it has proved to the world that we can live in a united world if we choose to do so.

Whatever side the world chooses, my wish is fairly straight forward. There are things that are good in capitalistic pro-USA policies and things which are good in social Chineese structure of governance, but the fact of the matter is, people want basic items of life. Nearly 80% of the world population needs food, shelter, clean drinking water, proper sanitation and clothing. So, we are not looking at a prosprous world as in the case of european experiment, but we have a world which is two different worlds in intself. One is a generation of Apple
Ipads and designer clothing, which live in flash lights and glitterring clubs and the other is a world which fights for survival.

This whole discussion, though very complicated to explain and to understand leads me to a famous saying in Indian historical texts and Hindu mythology. “Vasudev Kutumbhakumb” which means the whole world is one family. This may not be what Mr.Kenichi Ohmae was trying to explain. Neither is this anyway similar to the european experiment of common currency in a borderless europe nor the way Chineese and USA wants it to
be but this is definately what we the people can create.

Universal brotherood in a borderless world, living as one family which takes all its disfunctional units
together”
