“….. Here is the prediction: China will turn North Korea loose soon. The alliance will dissolve, or become stale. There will be political upheaval in China. Not a coup and not a revolution. Within the inner circles of that which you call Chinese politics, there will be a re-evaluation of goals and monetary policy. Eventually, you will see a break with North Korea, allowing still another dictator to fall and unification to occur with the south. ….”

“ … Here is another one. A change in what Human nature will allow for government. "Careful, Kryon, don't talk about politics. You'll get in trouble." I won't get in trouble. I'm going to tell you to watch for leadership that cares about you. "You mean politics is going to change?" It already has. It's beginning. Watch for it. You're going to see a total phase-out of old energy dictatorships eventually. The potential is that you're going to see that before 2013.

They're going to fall over, you know, because the energy of the population will not sustain an old energy leader ..."

… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

The Thinker: Asian Economic Exit Strategy

Jakarta Globe, Jong-Wha Lee, April 13, 2010

Developing Asia’s rebound from the global economic crisis has taken a firm hold. The Asian Development Bank predicts growth of 7.5 percent this year, up from the 5.2 percent expected in 2009. Such robust expansion suggests authorities will exit accommodative policies earlier here than the rest of the world. Monetary authorities in India and Malaysia have already pushed policy rates up a quarter point, while many governments plan to reduce fiscal deficit targets this year.

But the important question is — exit to where? As Asia exits this crisis it must ensure it is not entering another. Authorities around the world have so far failed to deal meaningfully with its underlying causes. Structural problems remain — inadequate financial market regulation and excessive liquidity — despite constructive proposals on global macro-policy coordination and financial regulatory reform. In developing Asia, large current account surpluses and reserve accumulation will continue to exacerbate the global imbalances that underpinned the current global crisis. Current account surpluses in the region, particularly in China, declined only marginally during the crisis and are expected to reach even higher levels over the next few years.

The uneven pace of recovery between developing Asia and the advanced economies suggests that capital inflows to Asia will surge once more. The region will remain vulnerable to large and potentially volatile capital movements, which could fuel inflation and asset price bubbles. As the 1997-98 Asian financial crisis demonstrated, rapid reversal of capital flows can have catastrophic economic effects.

The 1997-98 Asian crisis and the current global crisis exposed weaknesses in developing Asia’s financial and real sectors. To avert the next crisis policy makers must learn the right lessons and follow a more sustainable growth path.

That requires consistent adjustments on both the demand and supply sides of the economy. It means a broader monetary policy framework, more flexible exchange rates, continued fiscal discipline, greater domestic and regional demand and better social protection.

First, implement a monetary policy framework that takes into account asset prices and financial market stability, and adopt a judicious mix of policies, including regulatory and direct capital control measures, to manage volatile capital flows effectively. This also involves strengthening surveillance and regulatory regimes.

Second, allow greater exchange rate flexibility, and develop an institutional framework that accommodates a concerted appreciation of regional currencies, as well as increased intra-regional exchange rate stability. It is clear that developing Asian economies, especially China, cannot keep exchange rates stable against the US dollar and continue to amass international reserves. Regional cooperation in foreign exchange reserve management — such as the multilateralized Chiang Mai Initiative, a regional reserve pool of $120 billion — should also be strengthened.

Third, maintain fiscal discipline. Authorities should resist political pressure to spend more and give more weight to rules rather than discretion in determining fiscal policy. Sufficient fiscal space should be ensured during high-growth periods by keeping public debt levels low enough to leave room to adjust during crisis periods. Over the medium-term, stronger institutional capacity and governance are needed to ensure effective fiscal policy and sustainability.

Fourth, encourage greater domestic and regional demand and the reorientation of the supply side of the economy more toward domestic demand. Export-led growth served Asian nations well. But it also raised the cost of economic vulnerability and introduced substantial economic distortions. Asian authorities should also deregulate and encourage investment in growth areas of the service sector.

Fifth, strengthen social protection in the areas of health insurance, unemployment insurance, and pensions to bolster social resilience. Effective social programs can encourage consumers to spend more, stimulating domestic demand and contributing to a post-crisis rebalancing. Governments also need to increase public spending on education and health to support productivity growth.

Alongside these policy prescriptions, regional and global efforts must be enhanced to pursue policy cooperation and coordination. On the global stage, developing Asia must actively participate in major international forums and policy dialogues to support strong and sustainable global growth.

This is the way out, and a stronger, balanced, and more resilient Asian economy can help lead the way.

Jong-Wha Lee is chief economist at the Asian Development Bank.
