“… 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. …”

Indonesia's Ruthless Politics Dog Sri Mulyani to End

New Finance Minister Agus Martowardojo today begins the tall task of filling in the big shoes left by Sri Mulyani Indrawati.

Inaugurated by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono on Thursday at a ceremony in the State Palace, Agus, along with new Deputy Finance Minister Anny Ratnawati, has been given a daunting list of instructions, ranging from implementing a prudent fiscal policy to increasing the state income.

Yudhoyono sent a strong message of rebuke to his outgoing minister’s political critics by reserving glowing praise for her.

Wishing her luck, he also asked Sri Mulyani to keep Indonesia firmly in mind in her new position as a managing director at the World Bank. “Fight for the world’s interest, particularly that of the developing countries, including Indonesia,” he said.

Yudhoyono said it was strong policy in 2008, when Sri Mulyani was already finance minister, that guided the economy through the financial crisis. But he praised her personally for her contribution.

“The state and the government recorded your perseverance and hard work. You have done a lot during normal times as well as crises,” he said. “You should be grateful for having played an important and historic role.” He added that not all people would remember the hard work one has done, but “believe me, God records it.”

The warm praise the president had for her achievements, however, came in stark contrast to the cold reception she was accorded at the House of Representatives.

Fewer than one-fifth of the House’s 560 lawmakers attended Sri Mulyani’s last plenary hearing to present her fiscal policies. Many opposition legislators had already walked out by the time the minister, who had been investigated and attacked by the House for the better part of the past year over the 2008 Bank Century bailout, asked for their forgiveness for past differences.

“In today’s meeting, I ask members to forgive, and please let me say goodbye,” she said, to applause from those present. “With relief, hope, we walk along our own paths. We all work together for the nation.”

Though Yudhoyono said a key reason that Agus and Anny were appointed was that they did not come from any political party but from a professional background, it was clear they should both be prepared for political warfare given Sri Mulyani’s experience.

Agus indicated that he was ready for this. “If we assure our stakeholders and we communicate with them, while upholding our professionalism, we will find a solution,” he said.

Sri Mulyani said his experience in running a bank as big and complex as PT Bank Mandiri showed leadership skills and integrity.

Moreover, she said Agus had implemented a number of reforms at the bank similar to those at the Finance Ministry. “I am optimistic that the continuation of the reform program will go well,” she said, addressing worries that the reform drive she began, which had earned her several enemies, would be forgotten.

Agus said he would pursue tax fraud and evasion, but declined to answer directly when asked by reporters about the tax probe into companies owned by businessman-cum-politician Aburizal Bakrie, whose rocky relations with Sri Mulyani were no secret.

The president’s choice for Sri Mulyani’s successor had been keenly awaited, given speculation that politics had prompted the former finance minister to leave.

One of the strong contenders for the post, Anggito Abimanyu, on Thursday resigned after being replaced as deputy finance minister by Anny. He was officially named to that post by Yudhoyono last year, but was never officially inaugurated.
