Globilization

[bolan]

Finally, a definition of globalization I can understand and to which I can relate:

Question: What is the truest definition of Globalization?

Answer: Princess Diana's death.

Question: How come?

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, (check the bottle before you change the spelling),

Followed closely by Italian Paparazzi,

On Japanese motorcycles;

Treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines.

This is sent to you by an Aussie,

Using Bill Gates's technology,

And you're probably reading this on your computer,

That uses Taiwanese

Chips, and a Korean monitor,

Assembled by Bangladeshi workers

In a Singapore plant,

Transported by Indian Lorry-drivers,

Hijacked by Indonesians,

Unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen,

And trucked to Americans by Mexican illegals.....

That, my friends, is Globalization!

Cheers,

Stumpy very entertaining stuff! Really describes the true meaning of globalization for a helluva lot of other people too mate. Others might think only Governments make globalisation happen, when it was a way of life for dinasors, birds, insects animals and fish long before man evolved
