“… 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. …”

Industrial growth may slow down

Mustaqim Adamrah , The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Thu, 11/26/2009 10:06 AM

The combined growth of the food, beverage and tobacco industries is expected to slow next year as a result of sluggish investment this year, the industry ministry said.

In a report presented to the House of Representatives Commission VI overseeing trade and investment on Wednesday, the ministry said the combined sales of the food, beverage and tobacco industries grew by 13.3 percent year-on-year in the third quarter on the back of strong domestic consumption.

Growth is expected to decelerate, however, to 6.6 percent next year due to lower level of investment this year.

The Indonesian Food and Beverage Association (Gappmi) confirmed the ministry’s estimates of limited investment this year.

“Nestle and Garudafood realized their investment, but that was only for expansion (and was not much),” head of regulation division Franky Sibarani said on two of Indonesia’s biggest food and beverage firms.

The Investment Coordinating Board said the food industry alone saw Rp 8.2 trillion (US$870 million) of realized investment last year and Rp 4.85 trillion in the first nine months of 2009.

Franky said industry growth would also be affected by the increased number of electricity blackouts, which further underlined Indonesia’s infrastructure problems.

“Moreover, supply of natural gas [to fuel industry] will likely decline next year. This can be a discouraging factor,” he said, highlighting another bottleneck to business expansion.

Problems hampering industrial growth are being highlighted just when the food and beverage industry is supposed to benefit from the emergence of new positive market trends.

Gappmi chairman Thomas Dharmawan argued that the global economic downturn had forced Indonesian consumers to divert their spending on electronic goods and automotive expenditure, both grossly affected by currency fluctuations, into food and beverage products.

“Consumption of cell phones and motorcycles was high in 2007. But since the crisis [hit the country late last year], food and beverage consumption has rebounded again,” said Thomas.

Consumption also benefits from the new regulation issued by the trade ministry to protect the domestic market from smuggled goods. The regulation stipulates that imports of food and beverages, garments, footwear, children’s toys and electronics can only enter the country after a pre-shipment inspection to be verified via five designated seaports and all international airports.

Gappmi estimates that the food and beverage industry will likely see a 7.95 percent growth rate by the end of the year with total sales of Rp 420 trillion. In terms of exports, the industry is expected to see a 5 percent contraction from $2.7 billion booked last year.

The food and beverage industry contributed about 7.2 percent of the GDP last year, and the tobacco industry about 1.8 percent.
