Home > Policies and Activities > Speeches Working Together to Build a High-Quality World Economy 2019/06/28 Remarks by H.E. Xi Jinping President of the People's Republic of China On Global Economy and Trade at the G20 Summit Osaka, 28 June 2019 Dear Colleagues, It is my great pleasure to join you here in Osaka. Ten years after the 2008 international financial crisis, the global economy has again reached a crossroads. Protectionism and unilateralism are spreading, and trade and investment tensions are on the rise, bringing disruptions to the global industry landscape and financial stability. The world economy is confronting more risks and uncertainties, dampening the confidence of international investors. The G20 is the premier forum for international economic cooperation. We, as the leaders of major economies, are duty bound to re-calibrate the direction of the world economy and global governance at this critical juncture, work together to boost market confidence, and bring hope to our people. - We must respect the objective laws of the economy. Economic operation has its underlying laws. Fully respecting these laws, leveraging the role of the market and removing man-made obstacles represent a sure way to raise productivity, boost trade and revitalize all industries. - We must tap into the prevailing trend of development. The history of human society is marked by a transition from isolation and exclusion to openness and integration. This is an unstoppable trend. We must open up further to embrace opportunities of development and seek win-win outcomes through closer cooperation. We must work together to shape and steer economic globalization in the right direction. - We must keep in mind our shared future. In today's world, all countries' interests are closely intertwined. We have a high stake in each other's future. By expanding common interests and taking a long-term view, we can realize enduring peace and prosperity in the world and deliver a better life to all our people. We must not allow ourselves to become prisoners of short-term interests and make irrevocable mistakes of historic consequences. Based on these principles, I would like to share with you a few suggestions: First, we need to persist in reform and innovation to find more impetus for growth. The world economy is in a transition from old to new drivers of growth. We must find the best way to advance structural reform. We must develop a future-oriented industry structure, policy framework and management system through promoting the digital economy, enhancing connectivity and improving social security, so as to enhance the efficiency and resilience of our economies and strive for high-quality development. We must capitalize on the historic opportunities brought by new technologies, industries and forms of business to foster an enabling market environment where innovation is respected, protected and encouraged. We must champion international collaboration on innovation and rise above geographic and man-made fences. When we put our heads together to resolve the common challenges and spread the fruits of innovation, we can make a difference for more countries and for the life of their peoples. Second, we need to progress with the times and improve global governance. With economic globalization facing headwinds, we must reflect on the important question of how best to improve global governance. The G20 should continue to take the lead in making the world economy open, inclusive, balanced and beneficial for all. We must strengthen the multilateral trading system and pursue WTO reform as necessary. The goal of the reform is to bring the WTO up to date and make it better able to deliver its mandate of enhancing market openness and boosting development, and the results should be conducive to upholding free trade and multilateralism and to narrowing the development gap. At the same time, the G20 must also anticipate future systemic financial risks and challenges at the global level. We must ensure sufficient resources for the financial safety net and see to it that the representativeness of the international financial architecture makes more sense and better reflects the realities of the world economy. This not only is a matter of fairness, but also affects our ability to take targeted and effective measures to meet challenges and navigate crises when they come our way. It is also very important for the G20 to implement the Paris Agreement and improve energy, environmental and digital governance. Third, we need to rise up to challenges and break bottlenecks in development. The myriad challenges facing the world today are all related in one way or another to the development gap and deficit. The gaping shortfall in global development financing means that the realization of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development remains a daunting task for us. It is against such a backdrop that China proposed the Belt and Road Initiative. The Initiative is designed to mobilize more resources, strengthen connectivity links, leverage potential growth drivers, and connect the markets with a view to integrating more countries and regions into economic globalization and achieving shared prosperity through mutually beneficial cooperation. The success of the Second Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation demonstrates the broad welcome and support for this Initiative from the global community, as it effectively responds to the aspirations of our people and the trend of our times. It is important that the G20 continue to prioritize development in macroeconomic policy coordination, scale up input in development, and lead development cooperation through concrete actions. By doing so, we can live up to the expectations of developing countries and secure a lasting driving force for global growth. Fourth, we need to uphold our partnership and resolve differences properly. The G20 is a grouping of major advanced economies and emerging markets, accounting for nearly 90% of the global economy. Given the different development stages of G20 members, it is only natural that we may have diverging interests and views on some issues. The important thing is to always promote our partnership and treat each other with respect and trust, and in that spirit, engage in consultation as equals, manage differences while seeking common ground, and build greater consensus. If this can be achieved between major countries, it will serve not only our own interests but also peace and development in the world. Colleagues, The Chinese economy has continued its stable and sound performance, with its GDP growing within a proper range of more than 6% for years running. On top of the steps we have taken recently, China will further unveil major measures aimed at breaking new ground in opening-up and delivering high-quality development. First, more will be done to open up the Chinese market wider. We will release the 2019 edition of the negative list on foreign investment. The focus will be on greater openness in the agriculture, mining, manufacturing and services sectors. We will set up six new pilot free trade zones and open a new section of the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone, and will speed up exploration of building a free trade port in Hainan province. Second, greater initiative will be demonstrated in expanding imports. We will further bring down China's overall tariff level, strive to remove non-tariff trade barriers, and slash institutional costs of imports. We will ensure the success of the Second China International Import Expo. Third, more steps will be taken to improve the business environment. In the new legal framework for foreign investment that is to take effect on 1 January next year, we will introduce a punitive compensation mechanism for intellectual property infringement cases and make the relevant civil and criminal laws more stringent to deliver better IP protection. Fourth, equal treatment will be extended to all foreign investment. We will lift all foreign investment restrictions beyond the negative list, and provide equal treatment to all types of businesses registered in China in the post-establishment phase. A complaint mechanism will be set up for foreign companies to air their grievances. Fifth, greater efforts will be made to advance trade talks. We will push for an early conclusion of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) and for faster progress in the negotiations on a China-EU investment agreement and a China-Japan-ROK free trade agreement. Let me conclude by saying that China has full confidence in following its path and running its own affairs well. At the same time, China will work in the spirit of peaceful co-existence and win-win cooperation with all other countries to build a community with a shared future for mankind and to tirelessly pursue a brighter future of the global economy.

Dear Nicholas and Roberto  cc Lord Nicholas Stern

I realise the Xiamen declaration (below) is long (needs youth in development to question/mooc every clause from their regions view point) but my question would be how can one get to the last day of Argentina G20 and issue a declaration that builds in all Franscican values

in effect if its the case that Xiamen is China's and the East's current gift to mapping how the sustainability generation wil happen ,  the next year will add in much more insights from India and aiib mumbai june 2018 can introduce an adapted version

question for  youth summits and class 2017-2018 - year preparing Argentina G20

how does latin american design in win-wins from its context - china appears to want the Eastern centric brics to move into Plus mode with A2Brics latin american connections, A3Brics African connections and I hope ICE (view of future of sustainable development of youth livelihoods mediated by India, China, English speakinh world)

as you know xi jinping invited the head of Mexico with Brics member Brazil's President to participate in seeing this declaration come alive with 3000 journalists from 26 nations questioning it - previously the leaders of argentina and chile have extensively discussed both Belt Road and the Hangzhou ecommerce g20 -argentina is jack ma's lead partner in latin america; chile has always led UN women views due to that being Michele Bachelet's prior job with ted turner funded UN partnerships foundation

I will be spending the week after next listening to stundnt views etc. If there is anyne in Beijing (eg IMF , trade delegations of latin america - i know people at Italy's chsmber of commerce) that you know intersted in surveying youth's connections with this, it would be fantgastic to be introduced

In a declaration, the BRICS(Brazil-Russia-India-China- South Africa) called upon all nations to adopt a comprehensive approach in combating terrorism including countering radicalisation and blocking terror financing sources. Here is the full text ofXiamen Declaration

Xiamen, China, 4 September 2017

1. We, the Leaders of the Federative Republic of Brazil, the Russian Federation, the Republic of India, the People's Republic of China and the Republic of South Africa, met on 4 September 2017 in Xiamen, China, at the Ninth BRICS Summit. Under the theme "BRICS: Stronger Partnership for a Brighter Future", we endeavor to build on our achievements already made with a shared vision for future development of BRICS. We also discussed international and regional issues of common concern and adopted the Xiamen Declaration by consensus.

2. We reiterate that it is the overarching objective and our desire for peace, security, development and cooperation that brought us together 10 years ago. BRICS countries have since traversed a remarkable journey together on their respective development paths tailored to their national circumstances, devoted to growing their economies and improving people's livelihoods. Our committed and concerted efforts have generated a momentum of all-dimensional and multi-layered cooperation fostered by the previous Leaders' Summits. Upholding development and multilateralism, we are working together for a more just, equitable, fair, democratic and representative international political and economic order.

(check numbering)

3. Our cooperation since 2006 has fostered the BRICS spirit featuring mutual respect and understanding, equality, solidarity, openness, inclusiveness and mutually beneficial cooperation, which is our valuable asset and an inexhaustible source of strength for BRICS cooperation. We have shown respect for the development paths of our respective choices, and rendered understanding and support to each other's interests. We have upheld equality and solidarity. We have also embraced openness and inclusiveness, dedicated to forging an open world economy. We have furthered our cooperation with emerging markets and developing countries (EMDCs). We have worked together for mutually beneficial outcomes and common development, constantly deepening BRICS practical cooperation which benefits the world at large.

4. We draw satisfaction from the many fruitful results of our cooperation, including establishing the New Development Bank (NDB) and the Contingent Reserve Arrangement (CRA), formulating the Strategy for BRICS Economic Partnership, strengthening political and security cooperation including through Meetings of BRICS High Representatives for Security Issues and Foreign Ministers Meetings, and deepening the traditional ties of friendship amongst our peoples

5. Recalling our Summits in Ufa and Goa, we will work together to further enhance BRICS strategic partnership for the welfare of our peoples. We commit ourselves to build upon the outcomes and consensus of our previous Summits with unwavering conviction, so as to usher in the second golden decade of BRICS cooperation and solidarity.

6. Believing in the broad development prospects of our countries and the vast potential of our cooperation, we have full confidence in the future of BRICS. We commit to further strengthen our cooperation.

-- We will energize our practical cooperation to boost development of BRICS countries. We will, inter alia, promote exchanges of good practices and experiences on development, and facilitate market inter-linkages as well as infrastructure and financial integration to achieve interconnected development. We shall also strive towards broad partnerships with EMDCs, and in this context, we will pursue equal-footed and flexible practices and initiatives for dialogue and cooperation with non-BRICS countries, including through BRICS Plus cooperation.

-- We will enhance communication and coordination in improving global economic governance to foster a more just and equitable international economic order. We will work towards enhancement of the voice and representation of BRICS countries and EMDCs in global economic governance and promote an open, inclusive and balanced economic globalization, thus contributing towards development of EMDCs and providing strong impetus to redressing North-South development imbalances and promoting global growth.

-- We will emphasize fairness and justice to safeguard international and regional peace and stability. We will stand firm in upholding a fair and equitable international order based on the central role of the United Nations, the purposes and principles enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations and respect for international law, promoting democracy and the rule of law in international relations, and making joint efforts to address common traditional and non-traditional security challenges, so as to build a brighter shared future for the global community.

-- We will embrace cultural diversity and promote people-to-people exchanges to garner more popular support for BRICS cooperation through deepened traditional friendships. We will expand people-to-people exchanges in all dimensions, encourage all fabrics of the society to participate in BRICS cooperation, promote mutual learning between our cultures and civilizations, enhance communication and mutual understanding among our peoples and deepen traditional friendships, thus making BRICS partnership closer to our people's hearts.

BRICS Practical Economic Cooperation
7. We note that against the backdrop of more solid global economic growth, enhanced resilience and emerging new drivers, BRICS countries continue to play an important role as engines of global growth. Noting the uncertainties and downside risks that persist, we emphasize the need to be vigilant in guarding against inward-looking policies and tendencies that are weighing on global growth prospects and market confidence. We call upon all countries to calibrate and communicate their macroeconomic and structural policies and strengthen policy coordination.

8. We note that practical economic cooperation has traditionally served as a foundation of BRICS cooperation, notably through implementing the Strategy for BRICS Economic Partnership and initiatives related to its priority areas such as trade and investment, manufacturing and minerals processing, infrastructure connectivity, financial integration, science, technology and innovation, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) cooperation, among others. We welcome the first report on the implementation of the Strategy for BRICS Economic Partnership, and the broad package of outcomes delivered by the sectoral ministerial meetings. We commit to use all policy tools - fiscal, monetary and structural - and adopt innovation-driven development strategies to enhance resilience and potentials of our economies, so as to contribute to strong, sustainable, balanced and inclusive global growth.

9. Stressing the role of enhanced trade and investment cooperation in unleashing the potential of BRICS economies, we agree to improve and broaden trade and investment cooperation mechanism and scope, with a view to enhancing BRICS economic complementarity and diversification in BRICS countries. We welcome the positive outcomes of the 7th BRICS Trade Ministers Meeting in terms of the cooperative frameworks, roadmaps and outlines on trade and investment facilitation and connectivity and enhanced policy sharing, information exchange, capacity building, through enhanced joint efforts on trade and investment facilitation, trade in services, E-commerce, IPR (in synergy with the cooperation activities among BRICS IP authorities), economic and technical cooperation, SMEs and women economic empowerment. We welcome the setting up of the BRICS E-Port Network that will operate on a voluntary basis and the establishment of the BRICS E-commerce Working Group.

Did you know that the main reason why the 20th centry was one of world wars was that while in racing to access to thousands to million times more power than that of a horse, the addiction to carbon of first places to spin this biggere and bigger caused Industrial Revolutions most developed nations to go to war when they had run out of their own carbon or to surpress trade with colonies to that the empire got the carbon energy; a related flaw of IR1 was the opportunity  Would you be happy with the idea that every goodwiled nation shoudl be thanking our luck stars if the a leader of a billion smart people now knew that his half a billion youth's sustainability depended on them making productive friednships with all youth eberywhere   These are 2 urgently relevant ideas of the curriculum of Entreprenurial Revolution stared as a dilague @ The Economist in 1968. This website tries to help anyone who wants to understand ER do so in an hour- but we ask youth to give back- if you do agree with ER then co-blog out of one of 20 Economist sub-blogs- what Q&A do your peopels most need to share with whom so we can all value the half the wprld aged under 30 as the sustainability generation   Are we designing the world around realistic achievement of a handful of overall goals? Are these 5 an optimal combo? For examplel if we were doing all five   everywhere we exchnage value would peace and personal safely be blossoming everywhere too?   green renewability win-win market designs wherever mobilisation of learning tech makes this possible instead of zero-sum  girls (their lives health and productive development as well as mother earth's natural rules) lifup half the world ending systemic poverty communities progessing our childrens livelihoods as brighter than our own        while we have no argument if all nations of the world can trust each other to govern 17 goals, mathematically factoring a lot of goals to a minimum number connecting all the goals makes real-time mediation possible/trnasparent;  people cant measure success by 17 goals all of which may have tensions - so what happens is professions who choose one number to audit above all others commit the world's biggest maths errors (capable of ending our species)

Norman Macrae is known as one of the people who foresaw what futures are possible In1962 he predicted japan (better systems of microelectronics (without which computers wouldnt exist, intel developed programable silicon chip because a japanese calculator firm gave it such a large order but it dindt one to be locked into one suppliers specifications,) and civil engieering (eg bullet train) and trading operations( eg container superports and cities where trade was smooth) and the east would rise and rise; by 1976 he was inviting world leaders and readers of The Economist to  map why the whole world needed to celebrate china being the epicentre of all the collaboration challenges the net generation would systemically/exponentially need to innovate- to norman the alternative that over one sixth of a most civilised race on earth be uneremployed in age of connectivity (death of cost of distance as main factor in organisation) was terrifying;    in 1968 when it was clear to norman that man would land on the moon he started designing entreprenurial revolution: the Q&A curriculum of assuming man keeps doubling spend on Learning & Communications Technolgies every 7 \years to 2030- will spending over 4000 times more on LCT versus 1946 turn out brilaintly well or terrifyingly badly   as you may know both science fiction writers and scientists (eg Einstein) had developed the negative end game of Big Brotherdom . ER would need peoples all over the world to change ahead of time- otherwise BB was where  systems were designed to spin us. Norman was prepared to question history way beyong any nation's conventional wisdom- he had anadvatage as a diaspora scot (most of us were alteady living around tge world in 1850 since we had been colonised by Empire maker England in early 1700s; this norman saw fatal flaws in Industrial revolution;    to innovate was extremely unevenly distributed geographically-so while one parft of the world was racing to the moon, at least a third in the 1960s had no access to electricity grids   norman didnt know what futures would happen but he did try and mediate what futures would all 7.5 billion people though he would value the assumption of sustaining the human race for our chldres chldren - In fact The Economst was funded in 1843 to severely and publicly examine the world's biggest decsions-makers ahead of time? would you agree that is an essential purspoe of media (otherwise hi-trust as the core flow adam smith demanded of every market will not be realised across generations)   Norman had survived world war as teenager navigating planes over modernday bangaldesh/myanmar -he therefore didnt like wars nor stalins nor hitlers and loved seeing former enemies connect win-win trades

That the world's top 3 job creators come from Eastern hempisphere should suprise nobody who values youth economies or whose tracked human deveiopment since man landed on the moon. How worldwide their job creating superskills are is a reason for joy we can all celebrate; do you live in a place (or your own social network) that wants to do trades (and co-create jobs) with other nations that do good for mother earth or help youth create innovations/apps thst were never possible until we were all mobile connected no leader we can find spends more time surveying such trades and investments than china's xi jinping ok he's responsible for futures of half a billion under 30 chinese but they cant solve climate on their own; there's no point designing a healthy app and walling it in they want trades that make all youth/girls happier and productive  -have a look   .. A1 A2 A3  ask china

E2 Sir Fazle Abed - face up to the truth that the world has left the greatest sustainabgility challemnges to be solved by networks linking in the world's poorest goals- sir fazle discovered the 7 most critical markets to redesign value round: health of infants and mothers, food. land and water security, resilience /disaster relief and redevelopment , education, finance, mobile tech leapfroging, green energy and climate- all of these markets required different business and direct funding models so very poorest  not just included but integral to changing cultures and adapting to how 1000 times more investment in tech of being connected has made next few years the most exciting to be alive as we the peoples determine sustainability of our species   brac1.0 - the purpose of food and drink markets - while americans were racing to the moon in the 1960s, the place that became the nation of Bangladesh and China were facoing chalenge - how to design food markets so that famine doesnt happen (40 million people died in one chiense famine), and in particuloar how do we get local nutrition to nursing mothers and infants during the furst 1000 days that most determine whether their brain grows; china and sir fazle abed partnered on rice science- developing varieties for almost every diverse condition that the poorest harvest- this was the most important startch to end famine- in bangladesh sir fazle abed went on to redesign value chains of vegetables. poultry and milk so that livelihoods of poorest village mothers led these matkets. Sir Fazle also tried to import china's idea of barefoot doctirs; but bangaldesh didnt have qualified people whoi wanted to live in the village- so he focused on oral rehydration and other most basic health services mothers and infants needed- hundereds oif thoiusands of para health servant jobns in te vikages were created and both children and mother mortality rates came down to pars in the region; all teh while sir fazle reinvented charity- designing microifrachsies with poositve cashflows so that solutions replicated through every village grassroots womens networks ; next came finacial services vikage mothers needed; and schools (here direct cash transfers were inovated so that the brightest primary school girls won secinadry scholarshipos; in these and other ways the 8th largest nation launched in 1971 a poorest in teh wporld became the lab for extreme solutions to all sustainability goals- the reputation of bangaldesh for designing the most exciting solutions with the least made it the partbnership nation of choice for thsie whoi wanted to experiment with mobile and solar to end poverty - bangladesh now has over 20 yeras of developing 2.0 solutions and sir fazle abed's www.bkash.com now blends with all the knowhow that brac built in the days (when vilages without electrricity) depended on action learning communications person to person,living in viklages to bring the poorest the first opportunities to leapfrog with tech innovations

xxWorld Record Job Creators (WRJC) – W99 Smith, W98 Wilson, W97 Keynes

2017-2022 THE LAST 5 YEARS OF YOUTHS ANY WORLD IS POSSIBLE

 

WRJC share a curious habit. They look around at communities and see lots of work to be done. Of course, the most life critical work varies by time and place. For example, America may be the richest (most powerful) nation. But people in many of its communities are both sad and feel ever more unsafe, they start to fear each other. Naturally speaking: eleven year old girls are better measurers  of community wellbeing than politicians in high congresses or the academic they hire in ivory towers. Girls approaching adolescence can tell you where a place has too many guns, drugs, makes their body unsafe to be, or not be.

 

Recently The Lancet has also advocated that girls of this age make better peer to peer teachers on adolescent health than anyone else. This is an example of a “missing curriculum” –one that digital media if it was truly social could help celebrate local heroines of.   Moreover brain science shows extreme adaptive (communally creative ) capabilities at this age. Our species has been designed to be locally curious, diverse in cultural empowerment. Between 2016 and 1946 we bet the species on investing in 1000 times more tech connectivity of communications and learning. Would the endgame be big brotherdom or joy of little sisters?

 

For curious educators, The Lancet and its mainly Australian adolescent research teams offer a wonderful amplification of early 20^th c work by Gandhi and particularly his main education adviser Maria Montesorri . This has been added to half a century later by Franciscan alumni of Paulo Freire whose work in turn has been blended with Gandhi’s and magically reinterpreted as muslim girls networks ended poverty and built what otherwise would have been the largest failed nation: Bangladesh .

 

Vocational schooling valuing peer to peer apprenticeship designs helps makes communities self-sufficient around basic life-blossoming skills, and service microfranchsies. Schooling systems based on this exploratory idea have very different consequences than those based on examining the world (and certifying individual future potential) as if there is always only one correct answer (already known). For those who #2030now wish to invest in the youngest half of the world as the sustainability #learninggeneration, the truth is : there has never been a greater need to open spaces to innovation all over our global village world.

 

Fortunately mathematicians who have read Einstein know how to prove why servant leaders ,like sir fazle abed are correct in saying: small is beautiful and large scaling is absolutely essential if girls are to end poverty – let alone lift up half the sky as Chinese culture sees it . Einstein’s systemic finding needs to be celebrated now wherever life and livelihoods blossom: whenever male scientists say there is nothing more to innovate what they actually mean is they need to model relationship dynamics at a more micro level than ever previously achieved. To do that requires an entrepreneurial revolution in mircoeconomics that big bankers feds and eg paper currencies are least competent to co-create

 

In 2017, now that we have some expereience of experimenting with the internet and its universal mobilisation: Is it possible for world trade to be designed round big data gets ever smaller in its applicability to communities?. Bravo Jack Ma for saying 2008 “our chinese idea of how e-commerce can free bottom-up community trading maybe half crazy but we are not stupid”. Jack was too polite to say to Bill Clinton’s global audience: and subprime economics may be half-crazy but it is stupid. Voicing after all is a responsibility for youth whose mother tongue is English. 9 year old new yorker shames 3000 adults jan 2008

tough question for Muhummad Yunus - from a 9 year old! 9 year old microcredit student puts Dr Yunus on the spot.

A decade later all worldwide developing youth are invited (alipay china, bkash bangladesh … ) TO PAY YOUR MONEY AND TAKE YOUR CHOICE

 

By WILLIAM SAFIRE Published: February 28, 1988 NY Times   TO PAY YOUR MONEY AND TAKE YOUR CHOICE   British, probably Cockney. The first time the saying saw print was in an 1846 Punch. A cartoon entitled ''The Ministerial Crisis'' has a showman telling a customer, ''Which ever you please, my little dear. You pays your money, and you takes your choice.'' The phrase still means ''The right of choice is to the buyer,'' or a more sophisticated ''Power belongs to those who have paid their dues,'' but a much different sense has emerged. ''The phrase is used today,'' writes Edward C. Stephens, dean of Syracuse University's Newhouse School of Public Communications, ''not so much as an invitation to choice as it is a rejoinder to complaint. It seems to be similar in intent to 'You made your bed, now lie in it.'

 

TOPLINE

What all this means –or ought to mean to any educated parent or youth - is that any nation or region that tells you that their policy due to technology or other reasons is to accept high youth unemployment are suffering from the biggest maths (or systems) error the world has ever seen. It’s a systems error with scary consequences viralising across all the worlds’ communities – eg will mother earth’s climate continue to support humans as an evolutionary fit species

 

Scotland has been a laboratory for world record job creators (eg adam smith and james wilson ) since the early 1700s.  How’s That? Scotland was one of the first failed nations of modern times. As most British children learn by heart : “In 1492 Columbus sailed the blue”. A new world of trade was opened up by ships around the world. Previously Europeans had only used the sea to sail to other parts of Europe or its Eastern borders like Turkey , or parts of Northern Africa . To their West they didnt know America ’s existed. To their East China was reached – like Marco Polo did along the marvelous Silk Road – by overland treks that could take teenagers like Marco 7 years each way of keeping his eyes open community through community

It was to this world evolution of trade that around 1700 that Scots lost more than half their savings to an international financial scam – a ponzi scheme investing in South America that 99.9% of Scots had never heard of until it exploded all their finances. The consequence was the hostile takeover by England , euphemistically called United Kingdom . All this happened as the most extraordinary revolution so far experienced by the human race- the steam engine started to offer man hundreds and ultimately millions of times more power than the horse. By 1850 Scotland was 150 years into being one of England ’s oldest colonies. London ’s quarterly accountant and tax regimes valued sheep as more valuable than Scots. By 1850 more than half of Scots had emigrated as the only way to sustain livelihoods and families.

 

Five generations of my family have been mixed up  through all the earth’s hemispheres in keeping diaries or mediating what Scots observed about communities and their job creation. My maternal grandad Sir Kenneth Kemp in Mumbai spent 25 years ruling over Mahatam Gandhi before grandads last job was to write up the legalese of India's Independence.We read Adam Smith’s 1748 moral sentiments opus on trust as mapping how this flows out of communities as the first literature on job creation economics. In 1843, James Wilson was a small Scottish entreprenur in the business of making hats. He could observe famines growing around the British Isles and over in Ireland . He diagnosed that these famines was caused by laws being passed by vetsed interest poilticiahns in the Hoiuse of Parliament. He went down to London to become a Member of Parliament with the goal of making vested interest MPs jobless. His tool for mediating this was the launch of The Economist.

 

1843 Prospectus for launch of The Economist And lastly—if we required higher motives than bare utility, to induce that zeal, labour, and perseverance against all the difficulties which we shall have to encounter in this work—we have them. If we look abroad, we see within the range of our commercial intercourse whole islands and continents, on which the light of civilization has scarce yet dawned; and we seriously believe that FREE TRADE, free intercourse, will do more than any other visible agent to extend civilization and morality throughout the world—yes, to extinguish slavery itself. Then, if we look around us at home, we see ignorance, depravity, immorality, irreligion, abounding to an extent disgraceful to a civilized country; and we feel assured that there is little chance of successfully treating this great national disease while want and pauperism so much abound: we can little hope to improve the mental and moral condition of a people while their physical state is so deplorable:—personal experience has shown us in the manufacturing districts that the people want no acts of parliament to coerce education or induce moral improvement when they are in physical comfort—and that, when men are depressed with want and hunger, and agonized by the sufferings of helpless and starving children, no acts of parliament are of the slightest avail. We look far beyond the power of acts of parliament, or even of the efforts of the philanthropist or the charitable, however praiseworthy, to effect a cure for this great national leprosy; we look mainly to an improvement in the condition of the people. And we hope to see the day when it will be as difficult to understand how an act of parliament could have been made to restrict the food and employment of the people, as it is now to conceive how the mild, inoffensive spirit of Christianity could ever have been conceived into the plea of persecution and martyrdom, or how poor old wrinkled women, with a little eccentricity, were burned by our forefathers for witchcraft.

 

 

James achieved remarkable results but not quite in time . The corn laws were repealed but not before many Irish had starved and hatred slowly spiraled between the nations of England and Ireland that caused troubles for a century and a half- including many of the early innovations in terrorism. The reason for what happened to James in 1860 is disputed: did Queen Victoria prefer his idea of ruling over commonwealth to slavemaking empire? Or did some of her politicians want to rid James from interfering in how they ran the epicenter of empire? James -and his (Standard) Chartered Bank were commissioned by Queen Victoria to sails to Calcutta to start making the Raj Empire in India more locally trustworthy. There he died, 9 months into the project of diarrhea- a disease that took another 100 years to economically cure with oral rehydration (a mixture of boiled water sugar and salt mixed in exact proportions)

   

 

Standard Chartered Bank was formed in 1969 through the merger of two separate banks, the Standard Bank of British South Africa and the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China. These banks had capitalised on the expansion of trade between Europe,Asia and Africa. The Chartered Bank The Chartered Bank was founded by James Wilson following the grant of a Royal Charter by Queen Victoria in 1853. The bank opened in Mumbai (Bombay), Kolkata and Shanghai in 1858, followed by Hong Kong and Singapore in 1859.   The traditional trade was in cotton from Mumbai, indigo and tea from Kolkata, rice from Burma, sugar from Java, tobacco from Sumatra, hemp from Manila and silk from Yokohama. The bank played a major role in the development of trade with the East following the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 and the extension of the telegraph to China in 1871. In 1957 Chartered Bank bought the Eastern Bank, together with the Ionian Bank's Cyprus Branches and established a presence in the Gulf.

James son-in law Walter Bagehot continued The Economist reforming the English constitutuion and clarifying both risks an dopportunirties of the pound being that times internatioan rfesdearch currency. The putspie of the economist was to sevferly question the biggest decision makers ahead of time.

Bagehot is the most unacknowledged of all economists. However when George Soros declared he would put his billions into rethinking economics from the gronup u – the first mooc he commissioned was from a Columbia University professor  Perry Mehrling https://www.coursera.org/learn/money-banking

 

 

In the 1930s, Keynes  (The General Theory of Employement, Interest and Money) wrote the simplest 12 page (last) chapter on how places/peoples future are locked in by rules that economists and ideologues chain that place’s next generations to. He deduced economists should take a Hippocratic Oath – to design system to end poverty and improve youth livelihoods out of every community. Unfortunately tv mass media came along and most economists were thence hired to design macroeconomic theories 100% opposite to Keynes Hippocratic Oath

 

BIGGEST MATHS ERROR IN WORLD

It would be a pity if a maths error destroyed the human race. Yet precisely this compound risk this now prevails due to silos of conventional wisdom wherever  professional whose monopolies rule over your place --or since the 1980s have increasing ruled over global connectivity of trade and communications technologies

 

Worse the worlds’ biggest maths error spins exponential consequences. For example one way to define globalisation is that time when mans technologies become so connected that in real time operations they rival the scale of mother earth’s planet. In other words global professions or media that is not aligned to Keynes Hippocratic oath are putting all 7.5 billion peoples exponentially at risk of destroying our species. Even the Germans, it would seem, are forgeting their culturally meaningful fables

 

The Pied Piper of Hamelin (German: Rattenfänger von Hameln, also known as the Pan Piper, the Rat-Catcher of Hamelin) is the title character of a legend from the town of Hamelin (Hameln), Lower Saxony, Germany, which is illustrated by Arthur Rackham in 1934. The legend dates back to the Middle Ages, the earliest references describing a piper, dressed in multicolored ("pied") clothing, who was a rat-catcher hired by the town to lure rats away [1] with his magic pipe. When the citizens refuse to pay for this service, he retaliates by using his instrument's magical power on their children, leading them away as he had the rats.

 

The Scottish-Keynsian view started examining decision makers about the challenge of keeping globalisation bottom-up the day man landed on the moon. With nearly half a century of experience of questioning what global futures are being locked in, friends of world record job creators cannot tell you exactly when our species will be irreversibly orbiting to extinction but we can tell you global2.0 can't happen too soon.

 

Therefore We do ask youth to consider celebrating mediators like Xi Jinping and Jack Ma, and bottom-up community development practitioners like Sir Fazle Abed and Antonio Guterrres. Such a celebration means translating what they are demonstrating how to do in places that youth are free to experiment with global 2.0 trades worldwide to every community you love most.

Even as part of te world raced to the moon in te 9060s fully a tyhird of peoples in former colonies had no access to electricity or other grids necessary for innovation let alone development. There may be times , eg defeating hitler, when a war is needed but you cant confiscate te losing peoples kands abnd livelihoods unless you arfe deliberately intending to spiral all sorts of terrifying currents onto you childrens lives: The failure to reconcile world war 1 was the root cause of Hitler and so world war 2 Conversely reconciliation with West Germany and with Japan was successful by most metrics. The far eastern trading patersn grew with such quality that South orea, then Chiense dispoara suoerports and by 1976 mainland China itsklef took off in the greatest development stiry humanity has yet experienced – and one twhich olfferes sustainbility’s hope of not being primarily dependent on extracting from other nations. By 1976 The Economist was decalring China-Asia pacific century – a joyful time since the majority of productive people had settled on 10% of land within 3000 miles of Beijing. So The Economist turned to the big question – how could the west engage positively with the ex soviet union as soon as the Belin Wal fell. It was out of this scenario that designing the 21st C silk road was first pitched to Beijing by Wester Europeans in 1996 W3 Larouche Published on Jul 12, 2017 China's Belt and Road Initiative is unarguably the defining economic and political dynamic shaping the future of the planet, despite the howls of denial coming from the archaic Western press. Xi Jinping's 2013 announcement of the Belt and Road Initiative took the world by surprise, but to Lyndon and Helga LaRouche, it was a victory in a forty year long fight to create a new international economic order. Bill Jones of EIR magazine tells the history of China's economic miracle responsible for lifting 600 million of its citizens out of poverty (not to mention the millions more in countries working with the BRI), and the role of Lyndon and Helga LaRouche's decades long promotion of a World Land-Bridge concept that paved the way for China's initiative.       China has been experimenting actively with mukltilatera belth andorad mapping since 2001 foundation of the SCO and this has taken added momentum since BRICS became an annual summit in 2009. While it may be that Xi Jinping only lauched the global brand of Belt toad in 2013, the amount of win-win mapping around neighbors west of chjin asince 2001 and across hemispheres since 2009 surely constitutes the most  relentlessly enetreprising movement of 21st C leadership   The idea that we can return to the adma smith dream of every family and enetrprisning commu nity having equal access to trading routes may not be popular to thise big bankes in the west who since world war 2 have proited from every kind of externalsiation anaysis across boundaries. However its worth noting both of these opposite facts: The East’s successful development of .livelihoods since 1945 as a human right has been based on such tgrading logics and will continue to be how the east races towards a sustainable hemispeher   The desire to connect west and east across Eurasia has at least 4 decades of westerbn intellectual mediation underpinning it   At least 2 forces are now at a tipping point: W ehave now invested 1000 times more in unives=rsal connectivity  mobilesed from te bottom up than 1946 The majiority of the world’s people can see that carbon dominated climate isn’t sustainable   As the suborime crisis shows, big bankers, their media , their profession do not like being asked to transparently redesign systems from every community up. They will say tere is no evidence for making tge world’s bihhest investments in a difere way. We suggest 3 lines on inquiry in mediating their wish to block the peoples cvfreedom of market sectirs   1 Some belt raod experime nts can be demonstgarted at very little colst- so the thrird of the world’s belt represented by 2 ednds oif Euraisa has now been connected b y a railwayline.

For multilateral assistance to be great (let alone peaceful and safe) for girls again, we need to get beyond meetings that PR aid and distribute action learning bottom-up. These next 3.5 years of http://www.xi-trump.com should be youth's most exciting times in regaining sustainability for all our futures. Instead there is not one us university or media reporter that shares what sir fazle has  innovated with youth in spite of his knowhow being critical to deepest sustainability solutions.  BRACnet While my family (co-publisher http://journalofsocialbusiness.com )   friend of Dr Yunus   please value Sir Fazle's knowhow  as #1 in open learning campus empowering girls lives

dear kathy 10 years into publishing journals etc started with muhammad yunus has led my english and chinese speaking friends of women empowerment to value ideas of alumni of sir fazle abed at brac, and of china's radical leaders of Youth Economies; the opportunities of 2017-2018 are unlike any i have ever seen; picking a top 3 youth economies is a continuing survey but here are prelim results

should you or friends want to meet or see further details please say

Youth Economy( YE1.17) GREEN BIG BANG CLUB 

Sustainability summits chaired by china's xi jinping have led directly to Korea founding green big bang club for 2000 place governors determined to benchmark how to race to carbon zero; last month I was in Korea at the annual governors meeting of the green asian infrastructure investment bank attended by delegations from 80 nations- the reasons why Korea will make a hi-trust hosts of green big bang club became clear - obviously i would like to make sure that any green networks of bcorps maximise connectivity with green big bang club especially as the chinese graduate i have worked longest with comes from changsha the hometown of  Zhang Yue

YE2.17 Sir Fazle Abed's Ultra Girl Empowerment Collaboration Networks

While China is truly committed to sustainability goals it doesnt have the solutions experience that assembled around the life works of Sir Fazle Abed at BRAC and bkash- girl empowerment solutions in places with zero infrastructure is not China's forte ; xi jinping starts the second 5 years of his mission to rejuvenate china and all global youth 2.0 this summer; Dc's Brookings has the number 1 English-speaking scholar on Xi's next 5 year diary; India is scheduled to be absolutely critical to Xi Jinping during class year of 2018-2019 but maximising china's knowledge of Sir Fazle Abed's work cant come soon enough especially as it has the  same anthropological and value origins as jim kim and pope francis and the g20 argentina summer 2018 is the one scheduled event on the world stage to ensure the most ultra solutions to ending poverty and lost sustainability are included in all world leaders awareness. In a world where english speaking youth have been sidelined by trump and brexit, Britain's Lord Stern is pulling out all the stops to maximise British testimonies to investments in BRAC and those aspects of culture that queen and commonwealth have a tacit contribution to make

YE3.17 Jack Ma predicts that Big Data Small Platforms will enter the world's top 5 economies by 2021

That big data small coders win out over big data big coders is sustainability critical- getting blockchain apps right for sustaining communities and life-shaping social sectors is a once in a lifetime opportunity; more generally we need teachers of 5th graders to know whats at stake as we map back all the technologies of 4th industrial revolution which could be designed to be jobs enriching but in the west are still being mainly designed big brother way round

sincerely chris macrae

a note on youth economies; keynes life work concluded that economists were youth's greatest enemy except where these designed intergenerational system to exponentially improve youth livelihoods out of every community and end poverty - even as the world makes a lot of noise about sustainability goals, the biggest 100 economies (two thirds being big corporates) are far away from empowering youth sustainability- we invite everyone to vote on youth economies

sir fazle has always been the deepest living curriculum of girls empowerment, the one that most lives up to the 1960s ideology of latin america that i know of as preferential option poor on which all kims work was based on too

china (see guterres testimony attached) will do a lot of good things for sustainability generation and SME livelihoods but it doesnt go as ultra as sir fazle's experience of how women lift up half the sky

the g20 in argentina (july 2018 but whose research is now led out of buenos aires and is core to class of 2017-18) is where sir fazle's knowledge needs to collide both with the world leader debates of xi jinping and the tech capabilities of jack ma, and the values/hopes of franciscans - its really the only worldwide stage latin america has during these climactic times of americas dominated by random moves of trump and the east connected ever more sensibly by china's global 2.0

I was in korea last month where 80 national delegations concerned with green infrastructure investment banking listened to gaps in world bank and ifc structures including testimony from recent head of IFC; i do not believe that jim kim on his own can make the connections that the oas, the iadb, blum could now help make - thats if you want the deepest of girls empowerment and the smartest of technology redeisgning girls livelihoods however small their enterprises, however disconnected much latin american trade routes still are

cheng li at brookings in dc is the most knowledgeable person in usa other than kissinger on the goals and diaries of xi jinping- he repeatedly says jinping wants to know the right way to meet pope francis to understand whether franciscan and confucian cultures can bridge each other while english-language ones due to manic media have temporarily lost their way; our youth ambassadors at vatican university want to help but dont know how

should we meet?.. apologies if my pleas seem repetitive- they are based on 10 years, 40 meetings with yunus 11 in bangladesh, several hours of briefing by sir fazle , 7 visits to china in last year thanks to indomitable young chinese spirits led by amy and her friends at Tsinghua University- so much will tip in the next 12 months that americas may never get back-- tomorrow i meet with the origin of all yunus microsolar knowhow- korea launched green big bang club for 2000 governors who want to benchmark how their people can be first to carbon zero- are their place governors in latin americas who would at least like to know that club exists as one of china's urgent efforts to get climate back? lord stern who for a decade led gordon brown's green research has been asked by china to interview 15 eminent people and structure this into argentina g20 debriefings july 2018 and mumbai aiib2018 june 2018; jack ma has made argentina his number 2 international partner in small enterprise free trade with prime minsters of argentina and chile (michelle bachelet previously first head of UNwomen) leading goodwill relationships between latin america and china
