Globalist Analysis Previous Next.Ending the Rich-World Bias in Global Economic Statistics.The current economic crisis is called the “global financial crisis.” But is the term “global” justified?Just consider how the four years since the onset of the “global crisis” look in the eyes of the non-Western world:In sub-Saharan Africa, the average per capita real growth rate was 1.5% a year.In Latin America, it was nearly that high, and in Asia, it was 3%.These growth rates are respectable, even impressive, by historical standards. Yes, in Europe, North America and Russia, growth sputtered — and in many countries (but not in all years), rates of GDP growth turned negative. Global output declined by 2% in 2009, but it rebounded by 2.7% in 2010, and is estimated to have risen by least as much in 2011. Do these seem like “global” crisis numbers?The rebound of global output was dampened in the last two years because the crisis affected the richest part of the world. The richest part, by definition, produces more goods and services than the other parts. If its output goes down or stagnates, it tends to drag world GDP down with it.The global economic statistics we use show a tremendous Western, or rich world, bias. There is an implicit weighting scheme in the calculation that is seldom recognized. It is called “plutocratic” weighting, and it gives a greater weight in the overall calculation to richer countries.A simple example illustrates how: Imagine two countries, A and B, that have the same population, but A is twice as rich as B. Let’s assume country A’s output drops by 10% and B’s output increases by 10%. The overall (“plutocratic”) growth rate would be negative 3.3%. This is the extent by which the total volume of goods and services has gone down.But let’s now look at this example from the point of view of individuals who live in the two countries. Suppose for simplicity’s sake that everybody in country A (and also everybody in country B) is equally affected by her country’s performance. That is, all people in A experiences a real income decline of 10%, while everybody in B experiences a real income increase of 10%.When we aggregate across individuals (and their presumed feelings of betterment or deterioration of well-being), it turns out that as many people register an increase as a decline, and that, in percentage terms, both the increase and the decline were the same. Thus, a “people’s” (population-weighed) average rate of growth is zero. Positive 10% exactly offset the negative 10%.While the “plutocratic” growth rate that we normally calculate and use gives an exact metric regarding what happens to overall economic output, the “people’s” growth rate gives a more accurate idea as to how economic growth (or lack of it) affects individuals across the world.In the “people’s” growth rate, every individual in the world counts the same. In the “plutocratic” growth rate, what happens to the income of rich people matters exactly so much more as their incomes exceed the incomes of the poor.In the “people’s” calculation, then, it is not the richest countries that matter the most, but the most populous. And it is precisely these populous countries that have continued to chalk up positive, and often very high, rates of growth in the midst of what is called “the worst crisis since the Great Depression.”Between 2007 and 2011, China’s GDP per capita expanded by 43%, India’s by 30%, Brazil’s by 14%, and Indonesia’s by 7%. These four countries are home to almost three billion people, or about 43% of the world population. Thus, it is not surprising that for the world as a whole, the average “people’s” growth rate during the 2007-11 “crisis” was about 4% per capita, just slightly above the 1990-2000 long-run average.The reason why the Western media portray the crisis as a “global” crisis (and why, when non-crisis countries are mentioned at all, it is merely in their “supporting actor” role of making sure their demand does not slow down and make the recession in the West worse) is the same reason we (almost) never hear about the wars in Congo. People in the Western world, who are still much richer than others, are mostly interested in their own fortunes, and the fortunes of people similar to them, when they create and buy the news.The same media paid scant attention when Russian GDP, nosedived from a level that is a fraction of American or West European in the 1990s. A meaningless phrase, “transition recession,” was created and used as if it were an explanation. The Asian crisis of 1998 attracted far more attention, chiefly because of the threat of contagion spreading to developed market economies. But that threat never materialized, and the attention waned.Two decades of unremitting African misery and descent into hell passed largely unnoticed by the mainstream media. Who would know, for example, that nine African countries, with about 150 million people, have lower per capita incomes today than in 1980 — and seven lower than in 1960? But the tiniest of movements in the bond market or on Wall Street is followed as if it were a direct pronouncement by the Almighty.What we have to contend with is an obvious global imbalance. To a neutral “sympathetic observer,” as Adam Smith ingeniously called him, a real income decline of 1% experienced by an African country should attract as much attention as 1% decline experienced by a similar-sized Western nation.Or perhaps am I wrong? Should we, from a “neutral” point of view, care more when Bill Gates loses 1% of his income than when an unemployed person has his benefits cut in half? If you were to look at the oceans of ink, the terabytes of blog posts, and the hours and hours of cable news coverage dedicated to the “global” crisis, you would think so.Rather than focusing only on total economic output as we do now, we ought to refocus the calculation on how individuals’ incomes across the world are affected. Thus, instead of giving to each individual the implicit weight equal to his income, we should give the same implicit weight to everybody. Such a statistical rebalancing would lead to a world where we move from caring about quantities to caring about people.

Billionaires Who Could End World Hunger.Now, more than ever, we are very much aware of the extreme economic inequality between the rich and the poor. The disparity has continuously increased, such that the rich have become richer and the poor are getting poorer.A recent report stated that the top 100 billionaires in the world have added some $240 billion to their incomes just for the year 2012 alone. This amount can already end world hunger four times over.In the United States, the wealth of the top 1% is more than the combined wealth of 90% of Americans. This kind of situation does not just happen in the United States. In China, the wealth of the top 10% richest people contributes 60% to the total income of the country. The same scenario is happening in countries in South America as well.

The “Frontier Markets Index” includes some of the richest countries in the world:The index includes countries such as Qatar, Kuwait and the UAE. On a GDP per Capita basis, Qatar is the richest country in the world with Kuwait and the UAE in the top 10. For frontier market investors looking to capitalize on countries in the beginning stages of growth cycles, these are not your usual suspects. In fact, while MSCI’s Market Classification Framework includes “economic development” as one of its three main criteria, this only applies to defining developed markets. For both Frontier and Emerging markets, there is no economic development requirement at all.As of April 2013, the index is heavily weighted for Middle Eastern countries with Kuwait (24.35%), Qatar (14.96%), and the UAE (11.58%) taking over 50% of the weighting by themselves, and Nigeria taking another 14.4% weighting. That means these 4 countries manage to make up 65% of the index despite there being 25 countries represented in total.Argentina is the lone representative from the Americas with a weighting of less than 5%. Africa is represented by four countries (Nigeria, Kenya, Mauritius and Tunisia) and together have around a 20% weighting. Asia also has 4 representatives (Pakistan, Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka) but has under 10% of the weighting. This means that the usual Frontier Markets markets investors focus on, Africa and Asia, are actually the minority in this index.Creating a Frontier Market index is an arduous proccess given the illiquid and scattered candidate markets that could be included. While we’re glad that MSCI has gone to the trouble of creating an index focused on Frontier Markets, it’s reliance on a core group of Middle Eastern countries distorts the global performance of frontier markets, and makes for a poor index to compare your true frontier-focused portfolio to.

Top 10 of the cheapest surprises kids got in their Mcdonald’s Happy meals.

Description:
In the late 1970’s, a McDonald’s franchisee in Guatemala introduced the “Menu Ronald”, a child-oriented meal option that offered a hamburger, small fries and small sundae to help mothers feed their children more effectively. The idea caught the attention of company executives in the United States and, soon, the McDonald’s Happy Meal was born.
The Happy Meal has come to be a signature component of the McDonald’s empire, widely and easily recognizable for it’s familiar boxed appearance and its ever-coveted toy reward. Often used in collaboration with a marketing tie-in to help promote an upcoming movie or a product partnership, young Happy Meal purchasers have been treated to cool offerings like Beanie Babies, Hot Wheels cars and even Barbie dolls. The toy has been an effective, engaging, kid-pleasing part of the Happy Meal experience since 1979, providing an incentive to finish the rest of the meal.
In their infancy, at a time when the Happy Meal cost just 99 cents, the lameness of the toys befit the price of the meal. Initially, Happy Meal toy offerings were simply McDonald’s-based erasers, made to look like Ronald, Grimace, the Hamburglar and the rest of the group. Since then, the toys have evolved and grown more ambitious, with a since-disbanded 20-year partnership with Disney sparking a new focus on cool toys that kids might actually enjoy.
But not every Happy Meal toy quite hits the mark. Over the past 36 years of toy offerings, there have been plenty of duds along the way. As a general rule, Happy Meal toys have typically been at their best when tied in with a movie, TV show, game or any other form of marketing vehicle. Conversely, they struggle when McDonald’s is left to their own devices to determine what kids want. Without a tie-in, the toys seemed to be more poorly constructed, less interesting to kids and boast less play value.
On rare occasions, Happy Meal toy offerings have been nothing short of disastrous. In 2007, a Chicago area McDonald’s, ironically located just half an hour from the chain’s global headquarters, generated headlines when an eight-year-old girl found a bag of marijuana, along with a pipe and lighter, in her Happy Meal. Apparently a (soon-to-be ex) McDonald’s employee had deemed a stack of Happy Meal boxes near the drive-thru window to be a good storage space for his stash.
Fortunately, that was a one-off incident and not part of any controversial new McDonald’s marketing campaign. Instead, most of these 10 worst Happy Meal toys earn their place on the list thanks to poor design or quality, uninspired creativity or just a certain level of outright creepiness. While not as bad as drugs, it’s safe to say that these items probably weren’t put in front of young focus groups before being introduced, or else they likely wouldn’t have made it out of the development stage. Here are 10 toys that parents surely heard no shortage of complaints about on the way home from the golden arches.

Plenty of complaints but no action
Gina Rinehart, Australia: Australia´s Gina Rinehart inherited Hancock Prospecting from her father Lang Hancock who died in 1992. Rinehart rebuilt her late father's financially distressed company, the biggest piece of her fortune comes from the Roy Hill mining project, which started shipments to Asia in 2015. The mining magnate is also Australia's second-largest cattle producer, with a portfolio of properties across the country and the richest billionaire in Australia.
Iris Fontbona, Chile: Chile’s Iris Fontbona inherited Luksic Group from her husband and the founder of the company Andronico Luksic who died in 2005. Fontbona managed to make their family business grow and reach its new heights of success. This included turning the business in the second biggest bank in Chile, the biggest brewer in the world, manager of the largest copper mines in the world and controlling the world's largest shipping company. Another one of her businesses is a pair of luxury hotel chains and a luxury resort in Croatia, and Canal 13, a Chilean television station.
Angela Bennett, Australia: Australia´s Angela Bennett inherited Wright Prospecting from her late father. After his death, her estate became worth over $1 billion. Angela is said to prize her anonymity so highly that she owns the copyright on pictures of an empty staircase at her former palatial abode on Perth’s Swan River. She earned the nickname “the night parrot” of Australia’s rich list, in reference to the elusive and mysterious bird thought to have been extinct for much of the last century. Angela Bennett was born in 1945, she has 7 kids and as of May 2021 Bennett was the third-richest woman in Australia.
Sheyene Gerardi, Venezuela: Venezuela´s Sheyene Gerardi inherited the mining estate from her parents in the Orinoco belt region in Venezuela. The state became worth over $1 billion in 2017, after Venezuelan authorities claimed the area, dubbed “the Orinoco Mining Arc”, to possess reserves of uranium and some of the largest untapped gold and coltan reserves in the world. The company, through its subsidiary, is also developing automated mining technologies. Her businesses also include projects and activities with NASA.

“Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.” Eric A Blair. 1948.

The Philosophy of Sufficiency Economy and National Development
His Majesty’s Philosophy of Sufficiency Economy emphasizes that the producers or consumers try to produce or consume within the limit or limitation of existing income or resources first. This is the principle in decreasing the dependence and increasing the ability to control the production themselves, thus deceasing the risk from not being able to efficiently control the market system.
Sufficiency Economy does not mean that one must constantly be frugal. A person can indulge himself in luxury once in a while, provided that it is within his capacity to do so. But the majority of the country’s population often overspends beyond their means. Sufficiency Economy can lead to the goal of establishing economic stability.
Fundamentally, Thailand is an agricultural country; therefore, the country’s economy should be keyed towards agro-economy and food stability in order to establish a stable economic system to a certain degree. This is an economic system that can help lessen the risk or economic instability in the long run.
“I may add that full sufficiency is impossible. If a family or even a village wants to employ a full sufficiency economy, it would be like returning to the Stone Age…This sufficiency means to have enough to live on. Sufficiency means to lead a reasonably comfortable life, without excess, or overindulgence in luxury, but enough. Some things may seem to be extravagant, but if it brings happiness, it is permissible as long as it is within the means of the individual…”
His Majesty’s birthday speech on 4 December, 1998

The Economist. October 2nd 2014.
"The junta’s rule is likely to go on for a while, if for no other reason than that its members cannot bear even the thought of the politicians being in charge when the king dies. It helps that the bureaucracy and most of the wealthiest Thai families back the military government. These rich Chinese-Thai families, along with the Thai elites, control much of the country’s assets. In the course of the 20th century a small group courtiers and businessmen have played their cards right with the monarchy and managed to join them. The result is that 0.1% of Thais own half the nation’s assets, a concentration of wealth that makes America’s mind-bogglingly unequal wealth distribution (where 0.1% of citizens own 22%) look like a socialist dream come true.
These very wealthy families crave control and stability above all, not the sort of rapid economic growth that raises living standards for all. So it has always been in their rational interest to support conservative governments. Badly burned in the economic collapse of 1996 and 1997, they fear permanent shifts in government policy, competition and a rising price of access to capital, labour and land. "
Chitralada Palace entrance gates. Well, not for the likes of me they aren't. For me they are simply Chitralada Palace gates.
Inside them is where King Rama IX used to live when he was in Bangkok. He's in Hua Hin these days.
When you are the world's richest monarch you can easily afford a couple of pads.
