Erle Frayne Argonza FUSION NUCLEAR ENERGY: CHINA TAKES R&D LEAD

FUSION NUCLEAR ENERGY: CHINA TAKES R&D LEAD Erle Frayne D. Argonza Good afternoon! Large swaths of lands in Asia were recently flooded, which paints a gloomy landscape in China, India, and Pakistan. Flooding, however, doesn’t kill civilizations, and floodwaters should be viewed on the positive side as providing, after calamities, much needed water and energy source.

Erle Frayne Argonza EURO-AMERICAN BANKRUPT COMPANIES ARE LEPERS, ASIANS BE WARY!

EURO-AMERICAN BANKRUPT COMPANIES ARE LEPERS, ASIANS BE WARY! Erle Frayne D. Argonza Leper Companies, Inc. could very well describe the so many huge corporate entities in the West that are now expectantly waiting for some investors to breath fresh life into them. The compass of that search points to Asia as the source of the badly needed ‘smart money’. What a mess indeed had Western economies turned into, as their respective enterprises have been crashing to bankruptcy levels after liberal pol… Continue

USA’S LEADERSHIP HAD EVAPORATED, WHY OUGHT STOCK MARKETS FOLLOW? Erle Frayne D. Argonza Good day fellow global citizens! It’s late afternoon here in the Philippines, daylight is still around though quite faded a bit. The time of the day seems to be delivering the message that there is still some light in the global economy, and that is a feel-good ambience. Light there may be for the global economy, but that light no longer comes from the Western economies. Definitely no longer from the once… Continue

Erle Frayne Argonza RURAL DEVELOPMENT SHOULD BE TOP PRIORITY WORLDWIDE

RURAL DEVELOPMENT SHOULD BE TOP PRIORITY WORLDWIDE Erle Frayne D. Argonza Good evening from the Philippines’ highland suburbs! For this note I will focus on the thesis that rural development should be pursued by developing countries. The world’s nations have pursued growth that has been badly skewed towards urbanization and commercialization since after World War II, a total effort that has seen many people become poor as a result. Most of the poor folks are in rural hinterlands and fisherfol… Continue

Ian Berry Wanting and getting and having and giving

It has been said that there are two broad kinds of people in the world - givers and takers. The givers ask what’s in me for you? The takers ask what’s in it for me?

I meet lots of people who have been takers all their lives. They are generally very unhappy people. They want and get the so called finer things of life and yet the most… Continue

Dan Johnson CSR Networks and Communities

CSR networks and communities (Corporate Social Responsibility) are growing rapidly. But still for most companies, measuring corporate social responsibility is complex; for many it's confusing and daunting. Key Learnings over time: - It is essential that companies choose guidelines and standards that reflect their business, culture and stakeholder needs and that provide information that helps the company find 'meaning' in its measurement results. - Companies should not feel under pressure to st… Continue
