Oil War – Nigeria
June 2005
Nigeria’s lucrative oil reserves may have enriched its politicians but they’ve brought little but misery to ordinary people. Now, a rebel group is fighting for a share of the profits. “I need help. I need help,” begs a woman, clutching her young children in despair. Her home has just been demolished to create luxury housing for foreign oil workers. “The oil boom has turned into the oil doom!” laments Pastor Lekia. Across the Niger Delta, there’s growing resentment at the oil industry. “Corruption pervades the whole place, starting with the way contracts are awarded,” complains lawyer Ledum Mittee. “There seems to be some sort of collusion between the oil companies and those in power.” But militia leader Asari Dokubo has vowed to sever that link. He’s fighting to seize control of the oil and give it back to the people. “We own the oil!” he proclaims. “The thieves are the people in Abuja.” And across Nigeria, young men are flocking to his call. Last September, he spooked the international markets and forced the price of oil to $50 a barrel by threatening to attack foreign oil companies. The government was forced to agree a truce but he’s threatened to rearm unless oil companies leave. Nigerians no longer expect help from their own government. It’s militia leaders like Asari who are winning their trust.

Neo-Liberalism: The Contemporary form of Globalization
What is neo-liberalism? Neo-liberalism is a term used to describe a range of policies and an economic philosophy that stresses international free trade, economic liberalism ( more commonly referred to as capitalism) and the promotion of such through deregulation of the economy, privatization of industry, liberalization of markets, financialization of national economies and corporatization of the remaining public sector. The term neo-liberalism is used to distinguish it from traditional economic liberalism, more commonly known as “capitalism”, the major difference being neoliberalism promotes capitalism on a global scale. The proponents of this ideology claim that this form of “free-trade” amongst international private business entities will lead to increased prosperity for the entire world. However, the results of privatization and the removal of trade barriers has had a number of negative externalities, the most apparent being the sharp increase of corporate power and influence in the world and the displacement of national governments on the international stage. Policies designed to benefit corporate interests have caused inequality to increase drastically, privatization of many formerly state-run enterprises or agencies has led to increased costs and poor performance, and countries that are otherwise rich in natural resources are shackled in debt and required to privatize their industries, which are then sold to wealthy foreign firms, as a prerequisite to receive financial aid or loans under mandated structural adjustment programs. As a result, some opponents of these policies perceive neo-liberalism as a form of economic imperialism; a means for foreign businesses to plunder developing countries of their resources and indebt their governments to them through international trade institutions. Other opponents contend that neo-liberalism is not true “free trade” because it is managed and designed to benefit a few large corporations, and is thus in effect managed trade. Either way, the contradiction between capitalism and free markets / free trade is apparent.

Billions of Entrepreneurs: How China and India are Reshaping Their Futures an…
Google Tech Talks
March 12, 2009
ABSTRACT
“Billions of Entrepreneurs: How China and India are Reshaping Their Futures and Yours”
Removing half a billion people from poverty and into the productive workforce will profoundly affect on the world economy. India and China are doing just that with insane growth rates and lots of what used to be American jobs: China is the factory floor and India the back-office, software shop. China is top-down party driven. India is a messy, vibrant democracy.
This may be the complementary duo that changes the world. Including your world.
Come hear Professor Tarun Khanna in a discussion about his book, Billions of Entrepreneurs: How China and India are Reshaping Their Futures and Yours. Called well worth reading by The Economist and entertaining by the Financial Times, Khanna’s book shows how Chinese and Indian entrepreneurs are creating change through new business models.
Speaker: Tarun Khanna
Tarun Khanna is the Jorge Paulo Lemann Professor at the Harvard Business School, where he has studied and worked with multinational and indigenous companies and investors in emerging markets worldwide. He joined the faculty in 1993, after obtaining an engineering degree from Princeton University (1988) and a Ph.D. from Harvard (1993), and an interim stint on Wall Street. During this time, he has served as the head of several courses on strategy and international business targeted to MBA students and senior executives at Harvard.
His new book, Billions of Entrepreneurs: How China and India are Reshaping Their Futures and Yours, was published in February 2008 by Harvard Business School Press (Penguin in South Asia), with translations into several languages underway. It focuses on the drivers of entrepreneurship in China and India and builds on over a decade of work with companies, investors and non-profits in developing countries worldwide.
His scholarly work has been published in a range of economics and management journals, several of which he also serves in an editorial capacity. Articles in the Harvard Business Review (e.g. China + India: The Power of Two, 2007; Emerging Giants: Building World Class Companies in Emerging Markets, 2006) and Foreign Policy (e.g. Can India Overtake China?, 2003) distill the implications of this research for practicing managers. His work is frequently featured in global news magazines as well as on TV and radio.
He serves on the boards and advisory boards of several companies in the financial services, automotive, life sciences and agribusiness sectors. He actively invests in and mentors startups in Asia, and volunteers time with non-profits in India, e.g. the Parliamentary Research Services in New Delhi, which seeks to provide non-partisan research input to Indias Members of Parliament in advance of legislative sessions with a view to enhancing the quality of democratic discourse.
In 2007, he was nominated to be a Young Global Leader (under 40) by the World Economic Forum.
He makes his home in Newton, MA, with his wife, daughter and son.

I live on a large council estate and the government have given a management company money to refurbish homes.?
The management company have spent the money and have told tenants they have to wait for this work to be done (new kitchens, bathrooms and heating etc) 75% of the tenants on the estate have had the refurbishment done.How do the rest of us stand, we have heard through the grapevine the government are not giving any more money and the refurbishment is being stopped.How do we find out the truth?
The council.
