INABILITY TO HELP SELF | Random Reminiscences of Men and Events
zhlédnutí 16Před 14 dny
This is the third idea (previous two in earlier videos - see below) that I want to remember from John D. Rockfeller's Random Reminiscences of Men and Events - published a mere 115 years ago. He writes about how he thinks an evil (a problem) in the world is people's inability to help themselves. And that we can solve this problem by : - helping others help themselves; and/or - helping ourselves....

Lee Kuan Yew's Thoughts on Myanmar (2000)

In 2000, Lee Kuan Yew wrote: "Vietnam was admitted into ASEAN in 1995, Myanmar and Laos in 1997, and Cambodia in 1999.

Selling in Finland: Introvert vs Extrovert Sales People
zhlédnutí 70Před 2 měsíci
Would businesses hiring a Sales Director look for a person that considers themselves "introverted"? Would introverted people commonly pursue a career in sales? Well, at least in Finland the answer to both questions might be, "Yes." This is the obvious thing I noticed during my conversation with Finnish author, strategy consultant Jaakko Tapaninen some time ago on the topic of sales.

    Mr. Lee had a fair view of the country and the objective was to make it work despite the complexity and multiple conflicts of interests. But, determination to make things work for the greater good will prevail over time. Unfortunately, the governing body of Burma does not share the fair view of greater prosperity for those who had lived for multigeneration in the country. To this day, segregation and race discrimination are apparent after 60+ years of rulings. The middle class is depleting rapidly with only the elites/poors/ethic arms groups remain. How can such a society circling in this unending negative cycle continue to function? What is there left to be salvaged?

    The generals were following LKY's advice with their 2008 constitution following indonesia's footsteps. But the ppl and politicians r impatience and I dun blame them. Country is in turmoil for too long already. But wht LKY said is true tho ...generals can be persuaded, they were quite eager to engage with international community from 2011to 2015. May be we need more patience n generals need to withdraw from their positions quicker too.

    She may have nailed it. "Here people don't tell you what you have to do, so all you have to do is to figure out yourself. " It's not completely true of course, because the government, authorities, society, family and neighbours tell you many things what you have to do. But you always have the right to argue and pursue your own way, if it's not the government and the police or authorities in a situation you don't even have to listen anyone else. You may make other people unhappy, but it's their problem, not yours. You are allowed the freedom to make your own life.

    @ 2:40 - Lee Kuan Yew was incorrect - it wasn't the British who brought all the different ethnic races together in modern day Burma. It was the Burmese, under the Kong Baung dynasty, in 1759, and before that, under Toungoo dynasty, and before that, by Bagan Empire. Also interesting that it was him who gave the current crop of generals the idea about military-controlled parliamentary democracy modelled after Indonesia. However, what Burma lacked were generals who have any semblance of interest in the prosperity of the nation.

    Lee Kuan Yew was a prophetic leader! He could force the problem, analyze the circumstances objectively and arrive with definite solution. Though his way of governing has been labelled as autocratic! I prefer to see him as a benevolent dictator. In a society like ours (Asians) who have tribal or herd mentality- you need a hero!

    obvious that poor countries are currently still reproducing at a high rate and developed nations have slowed down, but the resource consumption required for the developed nation lifestyle is much larger than those in developed nations. It goes without saying that having everyone living with high living standards with current energy sources would not work. This obsession with never ending growth in the economy in first world nations is short sighted, with current emissions is a good way to make the planet less habitable. I feel there is an emphasis on reproduction because capital wants a larger pool of labor. Everything else seems to be largely BS. People might have more children if raising them was secured financially but even then people may just not want them, and the resources required for a developed lifestyle is not insignificant. I think the optimal rate would be just around replacement not much more of drastically less.

    Myanmar is a very different and unique case compared to other Southeast Asian countries with so many ethnic groups scrambling for power and some financially supported by the US and UK.

Tourism will let in people from countries that have intention to upsurge Myanmar for their benefits.

      I think the only closest analog to Burma/Myanmar in the region was Indonesia. This seems quite counter-intuitive at first until one checks their colonial (especially from early 20th century) and post-colonial history were almost identical up until late 1970s. One dominant ethnic group with ~60% population within super-diverse population? Check. Repeated genocides and famines inflicted by colonizers (thus the resentment against outsiders even much later after decolonization)? Check. Various political entities and local militias that initially backing two sides of colonizers (Japan and Western powers) united and turned against them to resist recolonization? Check. These entities later went into each other's throat afterwards and ended up on juntas' hand? Check. The only watershed moment was that in Indonesia their junta wasn't become as despotic as that of Tatmadaw's due to widespread protest in late 1970s. The military rule was still there and the demonstration was squashed, but alas the junta relented and gave some freedom to non-military sectors, which paved the way to transition to democracy later on.
