“… 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. …”

Global crisis cuts massive chunk from export figures

The Jakarta Post, JAKARTA | Tue, 02/03/2009 8:50 AM

The country is getting pummelled by the global economic meltdown, with December exports plunging 20 percent from a year earlier as overseas demand shrinks.

December exports were also down 9.97 percent from the previous month, the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) said Monday.

The decline in monthly and yearly figures overshadow a 20 percent rise in full-year exports from 2007, with exports continuing to take a beating in the last three months of the year, just as the global financial crisis began unfolding.

With the downturn slashing demand and contributing further to the already plummeting prices of key global commodities, Indonesia’s exports decreased by 9.57 percent to US$8.7 billion in December, from $9.6 billion in the previous month.

Non-oil and gas exports, which constituted almost 80 percent of total exports, were down by8.84 percent to $7.45 billion. The year-on-year figures show a larger decrease in non-oil and gas exports of 11.59 percent.

“The largest decrease in non-oil and gas exports is that of animal or organic fat and oil exports, down to $835 million from $1.2 billion,” BPS deputy chairman Ali Rosidi said at a press conference.

“On the other hand, ores, iron slag and metal dust exports recorded the largest increase, up by $191 million."

Oil and gas exports also slowed in December from the previous month by 13.69 percent, down to $1.2 billion from $1.4 billion.

Crude oil exports decreased to $455.5 million from $484.6 million, processed oil decreased much more drastically — down 58.19 percent to $96.8 million from $231.5 million — while gas exports dropped to $691.4 million from $724.8 million.

Non-oil and gas exports to Japan decreased to $1 billion in December from $1.1 billion in November, while to the United States they dropped to $907 million from $935.2 million. Exports to these two countries contributed almost 25 percent to Indonesia's total non-oil and gas exports.

The IMF has said Japan and the US economies may shrink by 2 percent this year.

The domestic outlook remains bleak as well, with exports very likely to plunge further as the world is tipped into recession.

Economists predict the impacts of the global turmoil will likely hit the local market the hardest by mid-2009.

“Exports have been declining since October, and the year-on-year figure also shows the same trend," Rosidi said.

"However, we still managed to record a surplus in the trade balance."

The country notched up total exports in 2008 of $136.76 billion, almost 20 percent higher than the $114.1 billion recorded the previous year. However, the trade surplus stood at $8 billion, 80 percent lower than the surplus of $40 billion recorded in 2007.

The declining surplus reflects a sharp rise in imports, valued at $128 billion in 2008, compared to $74 billion in the previous year. (hdt)
