Glad everyone agrees! Chris, maybe that Fiat 500 in silver would be a perfect hauler for the Scout!

Healing Office Woes in Russia
I wonder if anyone is doing this here in the US?

The limits of free speech
The history of WWII and it's treatment of "what is fact or not" in education are quite familiar to the Japanese. Two years ago, when the Japanese released new school books that excluded many historical facts, the Chinese government used the omissions to stir up anti-Japanese sentiments and dissuade purchase of their goods.

No Love for Obama in Thailand
If this is the case, then many US trade markets will face a similar challenge, hopefully free trade will prevail!

Drug Killings Haunt Mexican School Children
What a tragic situation and one that is so perverse in that the drug lords are targeting youth, the least able to cope. The fact of the matter is that with greater non-drug economics, industry, and trade in legal goods, all hope that the drug lords drift away into history.

Crises punches $40b hole in budget
The financial crisis has governments across the globe reducing budget estimates, tax revenue forecasts and proposed expenditures. No nation in our closely aligned marketplace is immune.

Moscow by the sea
The sphere of influence commanded and being expanded by Russia across the globe is second only to that of China, both countries are expanding their "new colonialism."

Singapore acts as haven for Stem Cell Research
Good for Singapore, bad for the US if you consider the impact on mixing politics, religion and scientific research. It will be interesting to see what an Obama and Democrat controlled congress will bring in the way of change here.

Bloomberg finds a home in Dubai
The decentralization of the world's financial markets from the traditional means that markets such as Dubai have a new and substantial stake in global finance and economics.

Wills India Fashion Week offers general comfort, safety in urbane style
India is on the rise in so many ways, I see that this also includes the maturity of its fashion industry and ascendancy on the world stage.

Marico India Hair Care Company Opens Plant in Egypt
It looks like the Egyptian market is well poised to continue in an open and consumer oriented direction.

Global Trade of Beef, Chicken, Sugar and Soy in Brazil
Brazil, as the US, is in the fortunate position of having excess capacity to harvest agricultural production that serves both domestic and overseas needs. So too do nations that include Argentina and Zimbabwe, yet both these nations are in dire agricultural straights with runaway inflation (ARG = 30%+ and ZIM = 2.5Million%) and rising levels of malnutrition to outright starvation. Lesson is that government trade policies, taxation and at times corruption can trump the most fertile of markets.

Milk, Mud and Hay Baths...
What an amazing and importable concept in service! Montana, Wyoming, anywhere there is hay, it's time to make hay and bath in the profits I would say!

imported foods found to be the cause of food poisoning
Changing tastes and the evolving food culture brings with is risks and the requirement perhaps for more food education, safety in handling, and stricter requirements for importers.

Who needs alcohol when you can have juice?
One could also argue that once publicly traded, ThaiBev will have to be more socially responsible, answering to the public more than they do as a private company. In the end this may be better for all.

China's coal use cost it $248 billion
China's proliferation in "dirty" coal based energy generation (2 new plants come on line weekly!) is not just an issue nationally, the global effects are becoming more pronounced, from neighboring nations including Korea and Japan to the North American West Coast, the polluting effects are being felt... 25% of West Coast pollution is estimated to be the bi-product of dirty coal energy in China.

Economy to grow below 4-6% in 2009
Singapore is a difficult situation as a confined marketplace heavily dependent on exports and with a small home market, the global economy has an immediate and chilling effect.

Egyptian Media Executives Arrested
One wonders whether they as members of the media on religious programs should not be held to different standards, of course the government of Egypt holds a very hard line o religious fundamentalism.

Corporate Australia is failing women
Excellent insight, I wonder how the number of women in small business and business ownership is fairing? Here in the US Hispanic women make up the fastest growing group of small business owners.

Mexico energy reforms Ok'd for final vote next week
Great report, Mexico needs to move in this direction in my opinion, best argument against the position of the "leftists" is to use the example of Venezuela who have moved in the direction of state control that they espouse.

Tug of War between Pro and Anti Thaksin
Great Report... I just discussed with my brother who reported the following from his home in Thailand where he has lived 18 years...
Unfortunately the entire media thesis is based upon the great falsehood that the demonstrators and their ilk in Bangkok want to bring democracy to Thailand. In fact they are primarily elitists who do not believe that rural/non-urban voters are intelligent enough to make a considered choice on any person up for election.
It is their position that the vote should be taken away from rural voters and that the choices should be made by the so-called “educated and enlightened” among the Thai population. In fact this will be end of democracy in Thailand if this group gets its way.
And of these long-standing and involved persons engaged in the boycott in Bangkok. The majority of them receive 500 Baht per day ($12 where the average Thai lives on $2 per day) and many other freebies for their "suffrage.”
If one were to go there and see the free flowing whiskey and edible treats one would come away with a totally different view of the entire protest enterprise. One would have to label them anarchists and not seekers of democracy.
At the core of this is a society where those that have believe that no one else is worthy of having. This is a society where it is common for "children" to live their entire lives waiting for their parents to die in order to begin life. All around Thailand there is evidence of this "extended family living" where "children" in their 50's continue to live with and be taken care of by their parents.
