world is smaller....

i dun think the world is flat... but i do think it's getting smaller. long long time ago, families probably travel by themselves... and are somehow self sufficient...

then these families met, and figured it's probably a good idea to travel together... for safety.

then they decided that they should stop travelling and settle down in one place. start planting stuff, one cow and a few chickens should do the trick.

then came barter.... then money.... then phone lines... then internet...

and now... all the villages in the world have become one. the world shrunk. each country is like a villager. some have declared themselves the head. each one scrambling to specialise in something that would make them useful in some way to the village.

each country is like a person... coz it is made up of people. so, naturally, the villagers would still like to be self sufficient to a certain extent... they will still plant their own padi... own their own parang...trust their fellow neighbours?? not so easily...

what are we gonna do for a living? looks like cyberjaya is made to be share-services centre... we are gonna be backend!!??? sigh... shall we not re-direct? is there nothing more exciting and rewarding that we can do??

ok... now i'm going to read the world is flat... let's see what thomas said...
