When will neocolonialisim take a seat in the back of the bus
So the former african presidents are being looked out for in boston for their good service to the west. Indiscriminatly enrolling the former presidents of african states seems there is not so much to learn from them since in retrospect look where africa is now. To what percent have they led to establishing a sustainable development for their mother countries instead of allowing the west to override n satisfy their own agendas. Africa is still importing everything we need whats the deal? All the food we could produce; is not happening since most of the fertile land is being used to grow produce for the wests consumption while africans can't get no food to eat. Was this part of the fullfillment of the deal they arranged before they came to power and were installed to do the the dirty work of the west and their neocolonialist wheeling n dealing. Poverty is still on the rise and yet their is soooooooo much to do to build The Nation of Africa. Investments are not required we have plentiful of the most expensive resource to any business namely ´manpower and womanpower´if I may express myself so. Suitable knowledge must be in africa since the past decade the west has been bent on recruiting some of our best academics in health services namely docters and nurses. Visions of where we are and where we want to be keeping in line with our own cultures and heritage instead of sucking up to the west and all the have for us. Please publish something to this matter or refer me elsewhere is your not interested.

Shall all not forget the continuing daily faults of colonialsim resulting still in malign constructions om the worldd trade organizations stipulations on trade laws that undermine development by having double standards and insufficient compensation for the erlier gained wealth at the cost slavery and mass didplacement. ¤== years and some. Yet 1869 ratification of slavery but its ramifications still being felt today.
The land of life is filled with most natural resources such as: oil, Cocoa (export/cash crop), Gold, Diamonds, Cassava (food crop), Groundnuts/peanuts, Corn, Bauxite, and Manganese to name a few. All these resources are controlled by foreigners who are able to trade freely and gain enormous profits. The inde-gene-neous African is either to weak or barred via international contracts and travel restrictions from reaping the benefits in his own land.
The African-American or African-Caribbean is not barred but blind to even step foot into the Motherland for fear of the images he sees in the media of AIDS, Civil War and half naked villagers with bones through their nose and spares. The African-American and African-Caribbean are in just as good a position as the European to invest and gain from Africas resources but with a little more right.
Great to see some return on investment. My investment is intertwined more basic socio-economic prerequisites for a greater percentage of the world. Mindwarz visitors can certainly play a big role in this endeavour since I am sure that life can be an easier road for more people than it is today. More people living and dying out of overconsumption than those dying from malnutrition. It has never made sense to me that the socalled civilized world we live in today can be ok with the balance of the situation looking the way it does. So to all worldly leaders if you are inempt of engaging a more suitable and proactive view to meeting these imbalances and stop the warmongering possibly more people will be sleeping better both physically and conciously. Thre are very interesting findings to the postmodernistic society in sweden yet its government is too proud to recognize its detrimental effects.
NEW! HIGHLIGHT: Young Leaders Tackle Development and Peace at UN Summit in
New York (October 29 - 31, 2006)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Young leaders from around the world will be tackling global development
challenges in New York City at the first-ever United Nations Global Youth
Leadership Summit which launches on October 29, lasting for three days, with the
goal of engaging young people in the worldwide pursuit of the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015.
"Young delegates will focus on ways of using their youthful energy and their
technological skills to tackle major socio-economic challenges. They will employ
the ideas, networks and initiatives from their summit brainstorming to help
launch a new decade of bold cooperation." said Djibril Diallo, Director of the
UN New York Office of Sport for Development and Peace.
The young community activists will develop conference action plans to help their
countries and regions reduce poverty, stem the spread of HIV/AIDS and other
diseases, and ensure a basic level of education for all primary-school aged
children. "You need passion to mobilize your generation in support of the MDGs,
and the search for peace and compassion for those suffering from poverty and
injustice," said UN General Assembly President Jan Eliasson, to a group of young
leaders involved in planning the conference.
Each of the 192 UN member states will be represented by two delegates, a young
man and a young woman, between the ages of 18-30. Historically, youth
participation in the UN has been limited, according to a 2005 youth MDG report.
This conference, however, will be a starting point for some countries, who will
include youth in their UN representation for the first time at the New York
conference.
The October summit is the culmination of several regional summits that took
place around the world over the last two years, with the goal of engaging youth
in the UN's pledge to raise the living standards of the world's poor by 2015.
This year's global summit will open in the UN's general assembly chamber with an
address from UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, and the newly elected General
Assembly President Shaikha Haya Rashed Al Khalifa of Bahrain.

This seems so bogus why has it taken so long to realise this. And here in scaandinavia att the top meeting of the UN week did not even have arepresentative that will be representing sweden there to divulge the plan they themselves want or have to realize. So my consideration tells me that this is a scam to let everyday people now think that UN is doing something. Correct me if I am wrong.
It is so incomprehensible that people are pleased with their own wealth and feel that they dont have to work for others... How can you live a happy life, when you know that others are suffering because of your prosperous. I believe that noone can feel real luck as long as our fellow beings are suffering. Equality and sympathy is the key to a better world.
