I sourced this from a post by Keep Fight @ Friday, June 19, 2009.Look how he creatively describe globalisation using a single event of the death of Princess Diana and how this definition of his reach you and me. Read on.....
QUESTION:
What is the truest definition of Globalization?
ANSWER:
Princess Diana's death.
QUESTION:
How so?
ANSWER:
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.This story was received from an Indian,and forwarded to you by an Indonesian,using Canadian's technology,and you're reading this on your Blackberry, that uses Koreans chips,and a Taiwanese LCDs,assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Hungary factory,transported by Pakistan lorry-drivers,hijacked by Indonesians,unloaded by Sicilian long shoremen,and repacked by Mexican illegals,shipped to Hongkong and Singapore before finally arrives in your hand...
That, my friend, is the true meaning of "Globalization".
Wahloi..... a fresh new way of putting it and it hits the MARK!
