A borderless world?
Unless you are refering to the implications of free technological,
food resources rationing, medical breakthroughs and the free
diffusion of education from knowledge holders to students, the
notion of a borderless world might appear as a futuristic haven
goal for people today to work towards.
In reality however, how often does beautiful ambitions like those
above score amidst the reality that we know?
Living in this world that we know today - a world that is still
being guarded and protected by the existence of borders, we still
see miniture scales of genocides killings such as those of Rwanda,
Bosnia or Serbs in just the recent decade.
We see six millions North Koreans dying of hunger, and
approximately ten million Africans straving to death even as we
speak.
Millions of others still live in improvished conditions, sometimes
with the lack of sanitary water source and sufficient. And needless
to say, I believe I need not even go further into the percentage of
population segment whom have not had the opportunity of
Education.
To have a borderless world now or even in the new future is thus
something that is so far streched that even I do not have an
appropriate phrase to describe.
True, we have the internet today, which may be described prehaps as
the most iconic example of a borderless world in connectivity at
this point in time.
However just as we can see certain big names such as 'Mikerosofe'
or 'Yaboo' dominating the scene, my question is -
Will we not see individuals, parties, or even commercial
organizations dominating a very true and real practical reality
just as the Game Theory had evolved for the our little Internet
creation?
Within all the fundamental construct of Man, we have to confess
that we all have a place within our hearts where Greed and
Intolerance does exist.
Hence forth, like all other pheonomena in Nature, we need one
another to counter-balance one another to hold each other in place
and check.
To have among us, a borderless world, that in itself is not exactly
a very difficult dream to achieve for ambitous nations or resource
rich global organizations.
What would be difficult, will to ensure and uphold the general
expectation that once an incredible feat like that is accomplished,
it will be capable of improving tremendously, the general quality
of the Human Life - which in truth, is not going to happen.
