As required by my Public Relations module to look for the definition of
"Globalization"
(online) lead me to this:

What is the truest definition of Globalization?

Princess Diana's death -
An English princess
with an Egyptian boyfriend
crashes in a French tunnel,
driving a German car
with a Dutch engine,
driven by a Belgian who was drunk
on Scottish whisky,
followed closely by Italian Paparazzi,
on Japanese motorcycles;
treated by an American doctor,
using Brazilian medicines.
and you're probably reading this on your computer,
that use Taiwanese chips,
and a Korean monitor,
assembled by Bangladeshi workers
in a Singapore plant,
That, my friend, is Globalization.

(i can't use black cos then you can't see it..ahaha!)

After reading through some stuffs online
(while looking for the definition globalisation..hee. Sidetracked uh)
,
I realised how little the US Presidential candidates, Obama and McCain talked about global poverty.
hmmm..

One billion people live on under $1 a day — the definition of extreme poverty.
Every year 10 million children die from preventable poverty-related malnutrition and infections.
Over 850 million people in the world are undernourished.

Surely it's in our global interest to help alleviate extreme poverty.
Let's hope the candidates are forced to address it.

No more "blind" wars please.

urgh.
gotta get my assignment together man..
