… 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. …

Local governments are hurting more than making things better

Debnath Guharoy, Consultant, The Jakarta Post | Tue, 03/25/2008 12:43 AM

Decentralizing power, by shifting control from the central government to smaller local governments, is the will of the local population and can only be deemed progressive in a new democracy like Indonesia.

But it is a new system fraught with problems. In a special poll recently conducted across the country, Roy Morgan Research measured the response to the rollout of local governments.

In a sample projected to represent the views of close to 90 percent of the population, Roy Morgan interviewed 2,083 people aged 14-years and older.

Almost half the people interviewed felt the actions taken by members of their local government were in the member's individual interest or in the interest of their political party.

Although answers to the survey did not significantly vary according to gender or location, the young were much less forgiving.

Furthermore, 63 percent believed there had been no improvement to their economic situation since regional autonomy had been introduced.

Merely 15 percent thought their economic situation was improving and 21 percent actually thought they were worse off. This is not a ringing endorsement for the progress of democracy.

Critics will argue the decentralization of power has created more obstacles in the fight against corruption. The banter among businessmen today has changed. Instead of "Madame Ten Percent" paving the way for business to get started, in the days of the dictatorship, there are now numerous little wheels to grease in a much larger democratic machine.

Idle chatter aside, the desire to create smaller fiefdoms, by politicians wanting to carve an ever-growing number of provinces, is a worrying sign.

Today Papua is witnessing a small group of ousted politicians trying to reclaim power by slicing up the sparsely populated territory into smaller provinces for their own gain.

However, the people of Indonesia have greater faith in the federal government with the "Good Government Monitor", updated every 90 days, showing a further improvement in the October-December 2007 quarter.

Almost 60 percent believe the national government is "doing a good job running the country", a dip of just 1 percent from the previous quarter, and only 31 percent "don't trust the current government", down 3 percentage points from the previous survey.

Seventy-two percent have faith in democracy, while 87 percent believe the fight against corruption remains "one of the major problems affecting this country".

After a difficult two years, it appears the average family's main income earner was able to pay monthly household expenses in the October-December quarter of 2007. The Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Index continued to climb upward, reaching a robust 115 during that period.

Not surprisingly, marketers across the spectrum of products and services, including fast-moving consumer goods, cellular networks and motorcycle manufacturers, all ended the year satisfied with the progress made under difficult economic conditions.

The long and difficult stretch appears to be improving, finally. But while signs the local economy is improving offer glimmers of hope, the economy is held hostage by an increasingly fragile global economy coping with the twin shocks of oil price increases and the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States.

These conclusions are based on Roy Morgan Single Source, the country's largest syndicated survey with more than 27,000 Indonesian respondents annually, projected to reflect almost 90 percent of the population over the age of 14. That is a universe of 140 million people.

The results are updated every 90 days. The opinions expressed here are my own.

In the creation of wealth, families and societies are enriched in numerous ways and every employer can justifiably feel proud of the contributions they make. But there are a myriad opportunities for employers to go the extra mile.

Some are leading by example. In Bangladesh, Mohamed Yunus of Grameen Bank has shown the way, empowering millions through his micro-financing schemes. And Mo Ibrahim of Celtel is promoting good governance across Africa with grants to governments setting high standards.

These new heroes are just two examples of businesspeople from the developing world joining the ranks of living legends like Bill Gates and Richard Branson.

In Indonesia, the fight against corruption cannot be won by the government alone. Associations like KADIN, Indonesia's chambers of commerce, need to take the lead in assisting the government in the fight.

Although passing a resolution is merely the first step, it can act as a call to action for individual CEOs and captains of industry to pass the message along the chain of command.

Without collective awareness, leading to individual action, Indonesia's fight against corruption will be a losing battle. If local governments are encouraged to wield power for individual gain, the situation will magnify exponentially.

The cynics among us have probably stopped caring. To them I recommend Barack Obama's "Audacity of Hope".
