re <<Kids cannot be raised on a limited environment. Global era. Imagine these insular Japanese if they had grown their kids with a world outlook?>>
the coconut and some of her middle school classmates (american, australian, chinese, french, indian, japanese, korean) signed up for a soup-to-nuts service trip to jiang yong county in far-enough-away-for-13-years-young hunan province, china
after return from the longterm partner community, the coconut says she wants to revisit when the basket ball court is completed
even better, for the first time the coconut worked as an interpreter between some mandarin-only speakers and some other english-only speakers as she herself is completely comfortable in both, with equal reaction time, and fluency
after helping to raise some capital (~US$ 110K) to do what can for the longterm partner community of ethnic (miao, of which hmong is a sub-group) minority and the local elementary school
the work mission was to help the elementary school clear grounds for a basket ball court, and to learn about history, lives, ways of work, etc etc and about implements, fertiliser, buckets, and food
for the middle school kids, all about the next generation, the younger-still kids
and about team, leadership, interaction, dialogue, mission, goal, objectives, etc etc
... about self-defense
... and mucking around
here be the kids learning about fertiliser
here be the kids teaching the local elementary school's english class
... passing observation, team china still has to build so much more for so many, with thrifty savings generated through diligent work, generously mobilised by force-march printing, for stuff, and stuff that makes up stuff, and having nothing to do w/ banking derivative blackholes.
inland rural land reform powers up inland rural development, so as to even up with coastal urban head-start, for win win again win once more and keep winning protocol, and spreading same again via obor to new worlds and lost continents
some kind of wonderful.
as opposed to ... oh ... no ... we are doomed ... olive men ... history doesn't matter meme
interestingly the coconut knew enough to appreciate miao history, and tried to learn a few phrases of the language that the women folks use amongst themselves that the men cannot hope to understand, passed down from mothers to daughters through the eons.
