“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Expanding Aquaculture Production for Indonesia's Poor Fish Farmers

14 December 2006, Asian Development Bank

MANILA, PHILIPPINES - ADB will help boost the incomes of 14,000 poor fish farmers in Indonesia through a loan of US$33.3 million to enhance aquaculture production and productivity in select provinces.

The Project will support a Government program to promote community-managed freshwater, brackishwater, and marine aquaculture development among poor communities of the country.

It will be carried out in five districts of four provinces: Langkat in North Sumatra, Ogan Omering Ilir in South Sumatra, Karawang and Sumedang in West Java, and Buton in Southeast Sulawesi.

Aquaculture plays an increasingly significant role in Indonesia’s economy, employing about 2.5 million people, providing an important source of nutrition and generating valuable foreign exchange earnings and domestic revenues.

However, poor fish farming systems and lack of good quality fish and shrimp seed, along with growing environmental degradation and pollution, are holding back the sector. Other problems include lack of access to credit for smaller fish farmers, absence of marketing infrastructure, and user conflicts in open water areas.

The project, officially known as Sustainable Aquaculture Development Project, will focus on small-scale and low-cost systems that are economically sound and environmentally friendly, and that can easily be replicated by larger entrepreneurs and organizations.

It will include pioneering new schemes to help organized fish farmer groups in establishing microenterprises and marketing their products, assisted by community based and nongovernment organizations. Key public aquaculture facilities will be rehabilitated along with associated access roads.

The project will also help the Directorate General of Aquaculture (DGA) and participating district governments to formulate policies and regulations for aquaculture development and environmental management.

“Besides the increase in aquaculture production, incomes and jobs, the project is expected to generate more general benefits,” says M. Jamilur Rahman, an ADB Principal Project Specialist. “These include a cleaner environment and better health and nutrition among rural populations from overall expansion of the food supply, given that fish is a staple in Indonesia.”

The total project cost is $44.5 million, of which ADB’s contribution accounts for almost 75%. The loan is from ADB’s concessional Asian Development Fund, carrying a 32-year term, including a grace period of eight years. Interest is charged at 1% per annum during the grace period and 1.5% per annum for the rest of the term.

Other contributors to the project are the national and district governments ($8.46 million) and beneficiaries ($2.76 million).

The DGA of the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries is the executing agency for the project, which is due for completion around the end of 2013.
