China's National Peoples Congress meeting- 2011-2012

03/05/2011

Changes in policy at the Congress meeting in favor of increased spending on social programs and improving conditions for lower wage earners. Increases in food prices, democracy movements in the Arab world and rising disparity between incomes of urban and rural areas, poor job creation by state owned companies in capital intensive industries, result in a change in policies. Skepticism about the implementation of these policies based on past experience.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
