Are we still on the SAME planet?

In the last week,

 

 U.S. government approved a US$700 Billion Dollar Plan to bailout investment banks which bet wrongly.

 

 

 

 

 

while in Indonesia - the world's 4th most populous country -- where almost half the people live on USD 2 a day,

 21 people died for a US$3.20 each handout!

 You can at least do this much, please ....

 

when you travel, don't be a paparazi.

This usually means NO.

I am sure this is NOT the way National Geograpic does it.

 

Don't expect comforts from HOME.

Try to eat local. The REAL PRICE is often invisible.

 

They may not share your point of view.

It is THEIR world too.

I agree with you, but it is so difficult to behave without hypocrisy. I think that it's up to everyone of us to do the little we can do and educate our children; perhaps also not to vote a certain kind of governors............Thanks
